    Just on Graham Lowe, Beveridge is on record how much he helped him during 2015/16. Hopefully Bevo and Mae continue to develop the same chemistry.
    More of an In Bruges guy?

      Essentially the players have been listening to the same voices for many years (Smith, Gia, King, Hansen and Corey) albeit with some shuffling of the roles the coaches perform. I'd probably lean to the notion that this isn't ideal and that the occasional new direction could prove invigorating for some of the players

        A couple more changes would have been good.

            I’m OK with these. I like Morris in and Smith back to the role he knows. Without any newbies coming in I think it’s the best fit for ours and their needs.

            Looking forward - Naughton, Darcy and JUH. It will be the envy of everyone.

              I think one of the real successes of the club over the last 6 years or so is way we have brought in various experts into our board members especially when we have needed to add some skills and expertise in certain area's.
              Why we have felt the need to maintain a very settled coaching group especially when we haven't quite been performing as I think we should have been is more than a little perplexing.
              Getting someone in to challenge the status quo in a positive manner could be just what we needed
              Lets hope or patience is rewarded in a big way

                It would be interesting to know the length of each assistant's contract.

                  Dale Morris - fantastic.

                  Why do we believe we don't need any new IP from any other clubs? Disappointing that we not been more ambitious in securing some new assistant coach talent.

                    And our coaches aren’t getting poached?!

                    Who of our assistants would be putting their hand up for a top gig in the coming years? King?

                      Gia is pretty good

                        We've got quite the little coaching cult going there, Moz makes a logical addition.

                          If any have an ambition for a top job surely they would want to ply their trade elsewhere.

                            That’s what Rocket told Leon Cameron. Was good advice.

                              Just makes sense to me I want to sell my wares I want them displayed to as many clubs as possible.

                                Couldn’t be less worried about getting people in from outside. I would say the group we have is more than innovative enough and Bevo is clearly working to a plan. I like that we don’t just follow the leader and stick to our plans.

                                In my experience coaches from outside are not always a good thing especially when you have a unique style which we do. Happy to take someone new in but I’m not losing sleep over it.
