Rumour on BF from someone quite credible. Clarksons manager told us today, that he is not interested.
I am ok with that. Most important person to get now is Cook so he can help us pick the right guy.
We cant force Clarkson any more, if his heart is not in it then it wont work out.
I dont see a concern with getting someone who wasn’t a head coach before, but we need to get the right guy. Hopefully Williams, Parkin and I am hoping cook enough of a footy brain to choose the right guy.
But the concern is getting experience around the head coach. Collingwood got the support right, not sure there is enough experience we can get now.
WE need Assistant Coaches.
Soft salary cap limits how many of the good ones are offered a job.
I'm sure there's plenty good ones out there .. maybe a couple are still in the hunt for the 2021 Flag.
Leppa wasn't doing anything last year. Bolton was with the Hawks. Who would have thought Bolton?
There's gems out there...just gotta get the right team.
I agree Bondi. Whoever we choose, ex head coach or not. We just need to choose the right guy, with the right philosophies. This is how important it is that we get the right CEO first and foremost.
Good footy Brains in Williams, Parko and Cook? They are the most important.
While it would have been good to get Clarkson, he simply doesnt seem to want to come so we need to move on.
I would try and convince Brad Scott, but if that is gone too, we have no choice but to go through the untried route again.
