I mean, I'm all for it on a lot of levels but...
No of course not, thats why I called out the pressure. The angle wasnt impossible but nailing it in that situation needs ice in their veins.
I absolutely loved his turn to the Collingwood fans as it went through too

COACH CULL: Two assistants, fitness boss exit Saints after finals miss
ST KILDA has parted ways with assistant coaches Aaron Hamill and Adam Skrobalak and high-performance boss Matt Hornsby in the wake of its failed 2021 campaign.
The fallout from the Saints' 10th-place finish started on Monday after they fell short of replicating last year's breakout season which included an elimination finals win.
Hamill, who captained St Kilda in 2003 during an 11-year career at Carlton and the Saints, departs after 10 seasons on the club's coaching panel including the last two as backline coach.
He returned to the club ahead of 2012 in a development coaching role before taking charge of the forward line (2014-17), the club's VFL affiliate Sandringham (2018-19) and then the defence.
Skrobalak this year coached the Saints' forward line after sharing midfield responsibilities with Brendon Lade on the run to finals in 2020.
A champion footballer at local level, Skrobalak previously coached county football clubs and in the TAC Cup before joining the Saints in 2015. He worked in ruck coaching and development to start his time with the Saints and coached VFL club Frankston in 2018 while still part-time at AFL level.
Hornsby departs after joining ahead of 2016. He previously worked at Richmond for 13 years from 2001-2013.

Brent Stanton gone from Carlton. No decision on Teague
Re: Assistant coaches merry go round
Harvey & Sanderson to be moved on at Collingwood. You’d think both get a gig elsewhere as assistants.

I think Sanderson in particular would be a good pick-up by a few clubs

Justin Leppitsch to join Mcrae at Collingwood.

I like Leppa, and reckon he's a good, strong senior assistant. I don't think we have anyone with that kind of personality profile (outside looking in). It'll be interesting how those two end up working together.
When do they announce they're "rebuilding"?

Just heard McRae talk about it and I while I think it will happen he was clear they would start talks with him.

They've pretty much flagged their intentions to rebuild and they want to get some more games into their younger brigade.
He will also look to bring in some more experienced players so they don't run the younger players into the ground.
Re: Assistant coaches merry go round
I'm a bit nervous about Macrae joining Collingwood. I think he's a good coach and could make them better.

Yes, its kind of like when you see a headline preceding a story about the latest Bulldog indiscretion. Your heart sinks, until you realise its just another story about a certain neanderthal NRL club.
