Assistant Coaches

Re: Assistant Coaches

Love the idea of those 2 at the club. Could maybe see the Suns guy stepping up to a line coach role (so replacing Ratten in the hypothetical)

We need an assistant coach for goal kicking, but we also desperately one for having the right amount of mongrel. We need some edge, and to actually stick tackles and make opponents hurt. The last month was embarrassing the inability to stick a tackle and impose some physical presence.

Re: Assistant Coaches

How would we feel about:
Bevo, Dew, Ratten, Lade
With Jackson Kornberg, Clay Smith & Spang as development coaches

I would be VERY happy with this, but would also like our current Ruck coach to stay

Re: Assistant Coaches

Didn’t know who Jackson Kornberg was but read a couple of articles and he sounds like a great young coach

Re: Assistant Coaches

Yeah much prefer to get an up and coming coach than Rats.

Re: Assistant Coaches

Phil Davis would be my first choice for a recently retired player.

Players fail the dickhead test, can coaches fail too?

My GWS hate runs deep but I think Davis is a pretty upstanding citizen. Was a great leader of their club for a long time.

Yep. I don't get how he is a DH. Perhaps if you don't like the rich but hipster look? IDK. He just seems above average articulation and/or intelligence for a footy player + solid citizen + good leader to me.

I though Ratts said he was retired from coaching and going back to planting trees (seedling company of some sorts).

He showed great leadership in staging, being a mercenary and arrogance. The Fabio look will teach the players how groom themselves better too.

Do you think Bontempelli is a good footballer?

Strange question to ask.

For What it's worth, I wouldn't go near Phil either. We need some experience to help Bevo, maybe a player with a couple of years coaching at another club.

Re: Assistant Coaches

We brought in Lade and saw no changes at all in our game day coaching. I can only assume that?s because Bevo still calls all the shots in game day.

If we get Dew and or Ratts - surely it is to be another voice of authority in the coaches box. Can?t imagine it?s an attractive role if not

Re: Assistant Coaches

I'd be chips in on Selwood.

No idea what he's doing, but our lack of mental fortitude, accountability and leadership are areas he could bring value to.

Re: Assistant Coaches

Although not an assistant coach I have reliably heard that Mat Inness (Head is Sport Science and Physical Performance) is leaving to take up a role with West Coast Eagles
