Opinion Who should be the North coach?

[King Corey]

Let Crock manage and let Aker do all the coaching stuff. I'll admit it's a boom or bust scenario but the status quo is vanilla. We are verging on irrelevancy with the way we are being "led" atm

Mate, Brad Scott is draining the football sexy from my life but making Jason Akermanis our coach based on him being an "exciting" person would be like quitting your job to get rich doing affiliate marketing of $10,000 water filters on Instagram.

I hear Aker is banned from 3 AFL venues.

A "nutjob" sums up why no team at this level will give him a chance. He mentioned last week on "the front bum" that he's been available for awhile but he thinks he's had the line put through his name as his phone doesn't ring despite letting clubs know he has an interest in assistant coaching.

Has he been on I'm a celebrity get me out of here yet?

He is into list management, recruitment, I believe.

We need one of them. Bring Brady back.

Very happy in the west. Probably on better coin than we could offer too.

Even they have him blacklisted,which says plenty considering who else has won a guernsey.

We stood no chance of retaining him in 2013. They would have doubled his salary easily.
It was Simmos influence. 2 grand finals and a premiership later and where the * are we?!

Get him back.

 

[SonofSamsquanch]

Get him back.

I recall once after north lost to whorethorne, thinking that Brady was nowhere near as talented as his brother. But as his career developed he showed the benefit of hard work and learning from the experience he had gained.

Brady was a terrific player and I have no doubt he could be an excellent development coach.

 

[Snake_Baker]

He is focused and he is ruthless.

He's exactly the sort of person we should be bringing in to the club.

Now watch them appoint a "cuddly" alternative.

 

[SonofSamsquanch]

He is focused and he is ruthless

You could see that just by looking at him.

 

[Snake_Baker]

You could see that just by looking at him.

.........and the way he played.

The three-time best and fairest winner believes the best lesson he ever got from Pagan was when he was dropped from the team for not retaliating against Daryn Cresswell after the Sydney Swans veteran whacked Rawlings and then alerted the umpires to send him off under the blood rule.

Lol. Basically the diametric opposite of the opposition player fluffer we have in the box these days.

It’s quite alarming isn’t it.
The mentality shift.

Flying the flag is crap.. I wonder what he thinks about sticking up for yourself?

 

[The Dingrel]

Does Brady Rawlings have any senior coaching ambitions ?

no, list management his thing

 

[The Dingrel]

In true shambolic fashion, I'd laugh if John Blakey ended up in senior coaching role.

Already been a dev coach at north, and midfield coach at wce, list management his thing.....champion bloke though

Anyone for Aker? Is a football genius, complete nutjob but would bring some flair to the team. Plus he always wears his heart on his sleave. I'd love to have him as an interim coach for the rest of the year.

No he seems like a moron.

I’ve said this before but f... me, our coach is on the committee that is making the changes, so he has a head start on all he other coaches and we still can’t get it right.
It’s so deflating!!!

But got a football brain but I hear his moving back to QLD
