I'd toss him and make Caracella coach. Let Worsfold go back to Perth and reunite with his family, he'll be happier and the club will be better off too. Maybe Worsfold takes over at Freo when they finally get rid of Ross Lyon, but I doubt it. He probably isn't coaching at AFL level again. Perhaps he can go back to South Fremantle.

Even then it took a large review and a change of assistant coaching staff.

What do we know about the quality of assistant coaches at Essendon? Neeld has already been sacked.

On Footy Classfied they showed clips of Hardwick,Fagan,Lyon,Chris Scott etc being animated then they show Woosha and he's just sitting on the bench as the goals tick over.

Your team had 21 goals in a row kicked against you show some ******* passion
In Worsfold's defence, he wasn't animated when Tippa kicked the winning goal against North a couple of weeks ago either.

I don’t get the animated argument. Chris Scott gets mocked constantly because of it. John Worsfold has always been a calm stoic person regardless of the situation. If they wanted someone animated they would t have hired him.

AFL is such a fickle sport. A few weeks ago he was fine. Essendon will probably make finals. It’s nuts that despite all that, that amount of pressure is still on him. What if they win their first final? Everyone looks like an idiot.

I swear we are all bloodthirsty for coaches demise. Why is it just the coach? Why is Dodoro not under pressure?

The last two weeks have been ******* shithouse but overall I think Worsfold has done a reasonable job with the Dons. With his family in Perth and having already achieved the ultimate as a coach, maybe he’ll just chuck it anyway? Essendon are in a pretty large group of teams in the comp at the moment that fluctuate in form from solid to pathetic from week to week. They’re not far off contending, nor are they far off sliding back down to the bottom it all comes down to player development and hunger.

The flaky players wont get any better no matter the coach & the bloke in charge of recruiting got everyone of them to your club.
Heppell looks a good leader is he?
Feel for Rhyce Shaw same problem, flakes.

As for Woosha, time to go.
 
With the current injuries Essendon have, i doubt Jesus Christ could coach them to a win at the moment.

he wasn't much for holding a team together
one knife in the back and everyone abandoned him.
