Wouldn’t fit criteria - seems reasonably truthful

Bit Like Teague as Blues forwards coach - couldnt kick a goal under Bolton, now its raining goals.

Always convenient when it turns out the best possible option was already at the club. Think of all the money they’ve saved trying to look for a coach somewhere else.

They went through an exhaustive process of robo-dialling Longmire and Clarkson until they were put on the do not call register.

Every chance of them not winning another game this year, that would definitely put some heat on him to start next year well

Dont forget Adam Simpson

Essentially just took the work experience kid and made him GM

If that salary figure of $400-500k is right then Shaw will be paid less than half the players. About the same that Saints offered Draper. Lol.

That’s a very poor comparison.
If he was the work experience kid he would have been a development coach working with their VFL players, not their most highly rated assistant coach

Gill as a mentor, will soon fix that.

Maybe he won’t be able to go full Organic with his groceries, but I think he’ll get by…

I reckon he kinda was.

Brown, Tudor and Crocker are all very experienced and highly rated coaches. They did give the reigns to the new guy.

Wasn’t he in The Full Monty, and scads of other films?

Brad Scott won’t be at an AFL club in 2020, with the former North Melbourne coach taking up a job with the league instead.

“The Kangaroos made the assumption that when Scott told the board he was prepared to leave the club at the end of 2019, that he had his eyes on a senior role at another club,” Whateley said.

“When the administration sacked Scott, it leveraged the settlement on that contention. It will now pay for that mistake.

“Although it won’t be the full amount, reported at $800,000, as there will be some claw back against the AFL’s salary, but it will be a significant burden against the soft cap.”
