Don't piss off old people
The older we get the less "LIFE IN PRISON" is a deterrent... -
Re: Following our exes...................
Yes, however for someone like Montgomery who has been overlooked a few times, is maybe already past the age where he can be an "up and coming" coach, isn't someone who could get a job on name alone (like say Hird) nor is the natural successor anywhere, at some point you've just got to take what you can get and run with it.
The Eagles job might be a poisoned chalice, but maybe take it expecting 2 years on substantially better pay, with the possibility thatit might actually go well, but if it doesn't it sets you up better for a Director of Football type gig down the track.
I mean if Monty doesn't get this he maybe gets deep into one more apllication process before he is not considered anymore?I should leave it alone but you're not rightComment

Re: Following our exes...................
Monty apparently has an offer from the Crows as an assistant as well so he can return to SA and be with the family.

You have to take the senior gig when its available I think. There is only 18 positions after all.Comment

Re: Following our exes...................
Most long term assistants who really harbor ambitions of being the senior coach can't afford to be picky but I do think there is a chance an interim coach is needed at West Coast for the short term.
All of the coaches will need to do their due diligence because list wise they aren't in great shape.Western Bulldogs Football Club "Where it's cool to drool"Comment

Re: Following our exes...................
Monty seems to me like Brian Royal level cannon fodder in this process, albeit more credentialed from his playing days in terms of being a premiership player - but definitely not on talent (and to be fair, his coaching days).
Always mentioned, never picked.
In his favour is he's still reasonably young, so perhaps the Dickhead and his merry men anti-Beveridge media cabal can get his Port Adelaide chemo's ****ing with your head mate's foot in the door.
Everyone ties Monty to our success in 2016, but the biggest correlation with performance I can see in that year was what happened after he left. Nobody ever really talks about that. They just focus on that one week off we had prior to finals where we got all our players back.......and the Salty Dog, of course.TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.Comment

Re: Following our exes...................
Onto that sledge:
Montgomery is believed to have told Ramanauskas: "The chemo's been f- - - - - - with your head, you wanker,".
A simple as it sounds, there's so many things people have wrong with them that they CAN change to enable you to avoid picking on them for things they CAN'T, when you're ripping into them.
He just seems old school to me.TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.Comment

Re: Following our exes...................
Yeah - but if you take the "wrong" one, that's it.
Clubs don't appoint bad coaches. But not all coaches are "BUILT" for the situation they end up in.
Macrae has done remarkably well at Collingwood - just as Bevo did when he took over the 'Dogs. Both won a flag in 2 years.
BUT: If the roles had been reversed, would it have worked...What should I tell her? She's going to ask.Comment
