    I'm happy that the deal is done and think it's a great outcome for both the club and the coach. I was a strong supporter of a 2 year deal because it maintains the need to get on with things and not start another rebuilding phase.
    With Rocket at the helm for 8 years we should know one way or the other if the club can get back into a grand final or two.

    Get the sleeves rolled up Rocket because we need you to finish the job.
    It looks as though making the final step from being the 3rd or 4th best team to the best is going to require some tough decisions along the way. Let's hope they are made and we can continue to build over the next couple of years.

    I think it's a good result, so Rocket, over to you and your team.

      Great news, in my book. Eade has done some fantastic work at Whitten Oval, and deserves the opportunity to, as he said "finish the job". One bad performance wouldn't (and shouldn't) be a determining factor in this decision. For all we know, it may have been done last week, and only announced publicly today. Go Dogs!

            Are you confident they will be made? The constant selection of Eagleton and Hahn doesn't fill me with confidence.

            Ditto comments from Cross about players not following instructions.

              I am reasonably confident, but a lot will depend on the development of our talls in the next 12 to 24 months.

              The players you mentioned are on there way out, but we do have quite a promising list so hopefully with some further fine-tuning we can take the next step.

              And if players aren't following the coaches instructions (and are repeat offenders) they should be looking for a new club to play at next year.
