Coaching Group - Under Pressure?

Re: Coaching Group - Under Pressure?

Where are those stats? I have tried to find them but all I can come up with is this for 2017:

Football Department spending
Collingwood ($28,366,146) – includes AFLW, VFL.
GWS – ($27,227,800)
Sydney – ($26,519,571)
Geelong – ($25,981,512)
West Coast – ($25,669,094)
Western Bulldogs ($25,489,964)
Fremantle – $25,476,311
Melbourne – ($24,223,494)
Brisbane – ($24,712,245)
Port Adelaide – ($24,701,910)
North Melbourne – ($23,851,745)
Carlton – ($23,841,372)
St Kilda – ($23,715,001)
Essendon – ($23,687,766)
Hawthorn – Not Available
Richmond – Not Available
Adelaide – Not Available

Obviously it includes players payments and other costs outside the footy department cap of $9.3 million, but I am unsure exactly what it does include and how comparable the figures really are with other clubs. Our women's team and VFL may inflate our figure also?

I was referring to the actual footy department and the numbers we employ in regards to recruiters/development/assistants etc. We are very lean with recruitment.

I understand what you are talking about, I am asking where are the figures as I can't find any. You can't say we are lean in footy department spending without something to back it up. I understood we had increased our spend in the last few years and would be interested to know how far off the cap we are and how we compare to other teams.

We certainly don't have this many assistants:



Mark Maclure labels majority of coaches as ‘sheep’, calls for club coach restrictions

I still don't know why Mark Maclure gets to talk on so many platforms.

It's because he has his mouth open and his eyes and ears closed 99% of the time. I like the guy (anyone who gets his nickname from modelling Peter Sellars' behaviour is OK with me) but I wouldn't take anything he says about footy seriously.

He doesn't BS, he says it as it is. He is a miserable old fart, but I like listening to him.

He says it as 'he sees it'. There's a distinction.

I agree Bornadog. I personally love listening to him cause he speaks with a “take no prisoners” type attitude and doesn’t give a toss what people think, instead of the sheep that plagued talk shows/footy shows etc.

Brett Ratten available

Correct. Massive difference between the two.

A big fan, way better than our current regime.

Re: Coaching Group - Under Pressure?

Brett Ratten in and Lindsay Gilbee as skills coach

Re: Coaching Group - Under Pressure?

I wonder whether we could get all of Ratten, Mitchell and Boyd (not necessarily all as assistant coaches)? Would give us a very different look and some recent players who have had success and understand the demands of the modern game.
