Can someone tell me what role he plays at West Coast? He would only be second to Nisbett as the longest serving what ever. I know he was a skills coach at one stage, but now you see him hovering next to Simpson at certain times. Does he wheel some sort of power over the football depart? Is he Nissies spy? What role does he play?

He was a stock ordinary player at Subiaco, then was a stock ordinary player at Richmond.

His nickname should be 1080.

All I know is, for Simpson to improve as a coach, he needs to force the point and Gepp must be ejected from his coaching group. Out of the box and bench area.

I have spoken to his team mates at Subi + ex players at the Eagles, and they all are mystified as to what skills he has or part he plays at the Eagles.

Still think Nissy & Gepp must be pensioned off.
 
Really? That's surprising as they were very close friends.

I don't disagree that his role needs to be reviewed but I think he was pretty close to Ken.
He did a review on Judge for the WCE board and it was unfavourable for Ken and led to his sacking. Apparently it ended their friendship.
 
He's a guy who's been at the club a long time - through some very successful periods - that when things start to go sour gets held up as some kind of 'man behind the curtain' or 'head office spy'.

So yeah, he's basically this guy:

First two years at Richmond were a disaster. Everything he touched turned to shit, one of those players that makes you cringe every time he gets it.

Third year was better, he started to look like a footballer. Then hot-footed it to Footscray when we had no money and was gone and forgotten in a flash.

A pretty average WAFL player.
 
Hopefully he will be gone along with Nisbett once the new Stadium is in place, and the Laithlain precinct is done. Absolute cancer on the club. The fall out from 2007/08 exonerates Ken Judge and validates his criticism of Nisbett and Gepp.

So being there through the Cousins era is a reason to turf these guys says the peanut gallery - no doubt you'd be into Brian Cooke if he was still with us.

Gepp must have something because during his time out of the Eagles he was inside the WAFC - I'm not all that keen to criticise one guy at the whim of an opposition supporter, even less so, a Dockers fan .... Simpsons role was questioned in The Aus this weekend, might turn a light on in the peanut gallery.

As for Nisbett, white anting him at a time when the financial future of the club over the next 25 years is on the line .... if he needed to go Alan Cransberg would have shown him the door a few years back - he didn't, & Cransberg was good for our club.

Good to see a Dockers supporter helping out.

Obviously sobered up enough to make a very good point.
