    Re: Who will coach the Dogs, Dees & Crows?

    Smorgon said today the club was well on the way in its search for a new coach and were hoping to make a decision before the draft period. He said the club will not rush into any decision as they want to ensure they get the right person.

    He said the right things but I now don't have the confidence to just accept what he says.

    If you read between the lines it looks like Leon is a done deal.

    The Bulldogs like to make easy decisions and continue to do so.

    All we can hope for is a fair process for all applicants....

    Has Brendan McCartney been linkied at all?

    How did you come up with that?

    What easy decisions are you talking about that have been made in the past?

    Adelaide & Melbourne, couldn't really care.

    Western Bulldogs, only slight lukewarm interest. Not one candidate that's been mentioned anywhere remotely enthuses me.
    Feeling a bit the same Coon Dog - just hope we find the right person for the job and it's given for all the right reasons, i.e., ability to coach, motivate and hopefully be 2 steps ahead of an opposition coach! Is that too much to ask?

    Peter Rhode is more chance to coach Melbourne than Rocket is.

    edit. pretty off the cuff conversation though.
    Heard similar things about Neeld when he was coaching the jets no thanks.

    Leon is the man.

    And watch the players continue to rule the roost

    We need FRESH blood. Someone who has helped implement a winning game plan in the modern style. Someone who isnt "friends" with some players, but if the board thinks he is the best to get, then i guess he is.
    I will never see #16 the same!!

    What year was that I wonder?

    And from the previous poster, by 'Geelong' do you mean 'Ocean Grove' in local footy?
    What should I tell her? She's going to ask.
