    Eade to Gold Coast?

    Rumours Eade has been offered the senior job.

    If so, well done Rocket.

    So has he interviewed? I thought his daughter was in her final year of school next year so he couldn't contemplate a interstate move.

    Ran into Rocket yesterday at Masters Hardware and had a quick chat. Asked him about coaching again and GC and he smiled and said you never know.

    Re: Eade to Gold Coast?

    Good luck Rocket. A great opportunity to lose that tag of having coached the most games without coaching a flag. Couldn't happen to a more deserving of blokes. I haven't met many people who understand the true essence of footy like Rodney Eade does.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    Besides Terry Wheeler, my fav all time Dogs coach. All the best to you fella.

    Doesn't really show up in the head to head of 2 to 7. Then again we ran them close a couple of times and it came down to they had Rievoldt and Lenny Hayes and we didn't.

    Probably not good for us if they get him, they will be our main competition in our next window
    If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

    Got a lot of time for Rocket but GC are going to be our rivals in the next 5 years.
