A big

for those supporting Ange Postecoglou to be involved...

The AFL is close to finalising between eight and 10 successful applicants for its Level 4 AFL senior coach course, which will prepare assistant coaches for the demands of the top job before they apply.
The first influx of coaches to complete the course have been hand-picked by five separate panels that included Postecoglou, who led the national soccer team to glory in this year’s AFC Asian Cup.

It was a brainwave I had. Synbad and I have often talked about getting someone like Guus Hiddink as a coach, given what the role of a modern coach has become.
Given that Ange satisfies the following criteria:
- Is xtremely intelligent
- Is an elite sports coach, albeit in a different sport
- Does actually know and understand AFL footy, albeit from a supporters POV
- Is outside the "bubble"
- Is a passionate Carlton man
To me, he's the first one picked on the committee.
Second is one of Walls and Parkin, who both satisfy the following criteria
- Extremely intelligent
- Have been elite AFL (premiership winning) players and coaches
- Are now outside the "bubble"
- Understand the workings and unique environment of the Carlton Footy Club
- Are Carlton people (at least one of whom is passionate..

)
And third is someone like Maxwell
- Extremely intelligent
- Has been a premiership captain
- Just out of the game (a year or so), so understands modern footy
- A good non-Carlton perspective
- Hasn't yet proved his credentials to the wider community, so will be keen to do it properly and well and be seen to be impartial (read "not Collingwood")
That's my 3 cents worth!
