The Coaches - LLOYYYYYYYYYDY!

Is everybody happy with the coaching setup going on to next year?

 

Obviously we have Hirdy coming back and theres no way theyll let Bomba go. so far the panel will probably be

 

Head Coach: James Hird

Senior Assistant: Mark Thompson

Head of Coaching, Development & Strategy: Neil Craig

Defensive Coach: Matthew Egan

Midfield Coach: Simon Goodwin

Forward Coach: Nathan Bassett

Development Coach: James Byrne

VFL Coach: Hayden Skipworth

 

 

Who will go?

Who SHOULD go?

Who is doing a great job?

Should we pick anyone up?

etc.

Bye Byrne.

Hope this doesn’t turn into a Hird v bomber who should coach thread

Give all the jobs to BASS

Reckon you could almost split Neil Craigs role and let Bomber focus on game day related tasks while letting Craigy working on the operational side of things.

 

Leave Goody as senior assistant. 

Personally I'd look to change the vfl coach.

Mark Harvey mentioned on SEN that he would be interested in coming back to Essendon too.

Yep

Reckon we will struggle to keep Goodwin. Sadly.

Dustin development coach if no going round again.

I'd like to see Scotty21 in there somewhere

This is a serious question, do we still have a sports scientist or department?

Isn't Goodwin currently Senior Assistant? I don't think he'll take a demotion.

Someone always leaves

Hopefully not Bomber

Dustin development coach if no going round again.

in 2020 when he retires - perhaps then a couple of years as a player/coach

I would say Goodwin will be gone by the end of the season.

 

Either will take a senior gig somewhere else or head back to Adelaide and be an assistant there.

Can see him going over to Adelaide to help Sando

What senior gig?

Heard there may be one about to open up at Carlton..........................................

It depends on wether, with Roos taking on the extra year, meant Lingy didn't have to front up at Melb for another 12 months,

 

but o/wise, the Deez coach in waiting slot could be on the cards,
