    Freo would be ahead in the race for Woosher, particularly with his family still in Perth.

    Woosher couldn’t get out of bomberland quick enough.
    Didn’t give a hoot from round 1 and had no drive to either.
    I think he saw he couldn’t change things thus with his statement about Essendon people need to understand it’s an equal playing field now, if that wasn’t the biggest slap to an arrogant club what was ?

    Wouldn't that put them in the danger seat.

    Avoiding Woosher would seem better than adding him if his recent performance is the guide.

    Although he is certainly experienced and could explain the learnings from every loss.

    It was certainly quite a kick up their arse as he packed his things and made for the exit.

    ASSISTANT COACHES IN DEMAND
    Collingwood assistant coach Matthew Boyd and Hawthorn lieutenant Adem Yze are in demand.

    Suitors have emerged for both Boyd and Yze as clubs make significant changes to their coaching panels.

    North Melbourne this week made the shock call to dump a disappointed Jade Rawlings with two year left on his contract.

    His brother, Brady, was part of that call as North’s head of football.

    Fremantle has had an interest in Boyd due to his close links to former assistant Justin Longmuir, while Essendon has been linked to Yze.

    How unassuming is Matthew Boyd?

    Goes about it with a minimum of fuss.

    I'm not one for getting "bulldog" people back to the club for the sake of it, but I'm certain he would be a positive addition to our coaching ranks.

    I'd love to get him back to the club. He's not the most friendly person I have met but I hold him in the highest regard as a strong assistant coach candidate

    Unfortunately I don't think we have the room for him

    He is the no 1 assistant coach I'd look to.

    He'd be the Monty style hard-arse who can deliver a whack when need be, but still demand total respect from the players. He's got Roughy playing very good football, Moore playing career best football (and he's now the AA CHB), Quaynor developing well, etc.

    He won't win friends with a warm and fuzzy demena, but that wouldn't be his role anyway.

    It could potentially be a little weird coaching players that he played with, particularly in such a senior role.

    I think if there's anyone out there capable of doing that, it's Boydy. Just a hard-nosed operator who does what it takes.

    I'd love him back at the club. I wonder what his relationship is like with Bevo?

    I would imagine it would be fairly common across the league. Montgomery returned as an a assistant only a few years after he retired, for example.

    Boydy will be our senior coach at some point. I’m happy for him to get experience outside the club at this stage but yeah agree need to get him back at some point.

    I get the feeling it is frosty. But can be warmed up.

    Boyd's final season he was in and out of the team and knowing Boyd like we know Boyd he would've wanted to play all 22 games.
