:smiley: - Could we ACCTUALLY be getting a forwards coach?

Maybe Fletch could be in mind for a position.

Yeah he’d be awesome as forwards coach
“OK fellas see this 50m arc, roost if from behind here”

If Blake was thinking of going to Richmond, he might want to think again. We are going places, Richmond is going in the other direction.

We can really go much lower right?

Fletch to be our midfield coach!

Disappointing. Really rate Egan as a coach. Hope woosha doesn’t just bring in another mate… need some fresh input

I’ve never been oversly enamoured by Egan or Skipworth. They seem very uninspiring.

Comparing Ego and Skippy is like comparing a Ferarri with a Ford Laser

Fixed.

For those who may not know what a Ford Prefect is:

Ford Prefect survived the end of the world… unlike all the Ferraris.

(Thanks for the setup, straight man.)

Egan as forward coach was awful, as the defensive coach he was brilliant

Skworth is a great cook by all reports

Skipworth must have some pretty good photos of board members

absolutely staggering

Can we merge the Coaches and the Assistant Coaches threads?

What’s the knock on Skipworth?

Voss and Leppa are better coaches

What's the knock on Skipworth?

2009:
Skipworth doesn’t read newspapers, he says, so it was via word of mouth that he learned of the mounting speculation launched after his first senior game with Essendon in round-one — started in a rival newspaper — that his fellow players resented his promotion to the senior team.

“To be honest it really did cut me up,” Skipworth told The Sunday Age. “To get that said about you is the worst thing that can be said about a footballer; that my teammates didn’t want me in the team.”

Wow. Never heard that before. He did alright in the senior team too. Why did they resent his promotion?

I had one of these as my first car. Great little car. Father and brother in law found it in a paddock for $25 and fixed it all up for me. Got me around Melourne for a year or so until I bought a Honda 100.
