Great get although I found this part interesting:


Quote:
The club is also believed to be working on a handover plan that would see an internal candidate take over from Cook at the end of his tenure.


Who is the "internal candidate"?

Even though he is not starting until mid October, you’d assume he would have a say in the choice of coach.

Geelong supporter I know (who has Carlton supporting relatives) says Cook is the guy he didn't want to lose. He was hoping for Cook to stay on as a consultant.

Deep down, I think Cook knew once he left Geelong, he had to go to allow Hocking space to do his thing.

Needs to manage the relationship between the Board and the Football Department, I don't think this was in Liddle's repertoire. I'm confident Cook can do it.

This is a key appointment. Really.

I’m waiting for Walsh reply :lol:

What’s the odds it will be negative :lol:


Well unless Cook can also play midfield and pick up 30 a week odds on probably



He's actually about the right age profile for the Geelong midfield, so yep, EAD Chris Scott

No, this can't be true. Gary Lyon and Tim Watson's mail was that Cook was out. If you can't trust Gary and Tim, who can you trust???

Don’t forget garry Lyon stole his best mate misses and got mark neeeld as coach and Watson still reckons his son wasn’t a drug cheat

So not really trust worthy

I agree with you , cook will be the gel we have needed to bring the Club together and bring some credibility back to us finally

Great appointment and will ensure that Admin people will stay in their lane, and football people will stay in their lane, and ensure the Board is across Football issues but won’t stick their noses into it.

He rejected Geelong's contract offer for 2 years (on the senior list), for 3 years as our CEO.

Great appointment... Even the 'fish rot at the head' brigade should be happy with what's happening

Go Blues
