Assistant Coach Replacement for Sean Wellman

[dee-luded 2,958]

What do you guys think of Sanderson? If he's overlooked @ Geelong, he may want out.

Is he over qualified?

[e25 5]

Possibly a good call.

Could only enhance his reputation, coming to us as we continue our climb up the ladder.

Only problem is that we need to wait until the cats coach is sorted and we'd rather have our backline coach sorted by the time we begin preseason... Which is in about 5 minutes.

Yeah, Sleepy Hollow are giving themselves up until the start of their pre-season to find a coach. Cook said mid November. Although, Bomba has annointed Sanderson as a successor at Geelong and believes he is ready for the senior gig.

[Gorgoroth 12,447]

If Hinkley gets gig at Geelong then we need to get Sanderson.

Do anything to get him from Geelong.

[e25 5]

Both Gary O'Donnell and Alan Richardson have left the Bombers.

Richardson has apparently already gone to Carlton.

Gary would be a good get and would be able to enhance his reputation with us as we climb the ladder and Bailey has connections at Essendon through having played there.

[ucanchoose 1,807]

O'Donnell is one switched on guy.

I used to work with his father and spoke to him reguarly. I'd take him in a heartbeat

[Inner Demon 1]

I'd prefer Dean Laidley.

[e25 5]

I'd prefer Dean Laidley.

As would I.

But I don't think he's keen to accept another senior assistant role.

If he is, get him.

I've always been a Gary O'Donnell fan.

*Also please keep in mind, Brenton Sanderson. If Hinkley gets the gig down 'sleepy',,, he may want out.

Also I or Mark Williams

just curious, what sort of salary range would an assistant coach be on?

Good question.

Laidley would probably expect to earn more than Bailey did in his first couple of years as coach.

[deewakka 1]

Todd Viney would be the pertect fit for the demons

[dee-man 0]

Just a name from out of the blue which ill throw in for the defensive coach.But how about Nathan Bassett.Has taken Norwood from 7th last year to the grand final this year which they only lost by 1 goal.The list was also worse than the one they had last year as the club wasnt aloud to recruit or get any Crows or Power youngsters which they drafted.They lost older experienced players in Kris Massie & Luke Jericho yep made a big leap up the ladder.All the commentators here are saying Crows & power would be mad not to take him & think he will be AFL bound next year or year after.All opposition coaches of the finals side said Norwood played with a defensive set up & zone far superior to anything they had ever seen in the SANFL & said it was AFL standard.Norwood also conceded less goals this year than anyone else in SANFL keeping the years goals against to under 7 per game

There's a thread about Bassett here http://demonland.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=23088

Also on O'Donnell i think it was said on radio that he didn't want to continue in coaching

I've heard him say that he is too busy with his commitments helping people with gambling addiction.

If you're making this suggestion because it might help us get Jack Viney, I don't think it's a good call. Fathers shouldn't be coaching sons at this level.

That would be great.

That is a great point.

[drdrake 3,065]

What is the ex Demon player that has been the Pies development coach, that also quit yesterday doing?

And that Todd only moved to back to Adelaide a couple of years ago, I don't think he'd want to move again anytime soon.

Well he's not getting a Senior Coach role, so he'll have to take whatever he can get if he wants to be an AFL coach.

What do you think of David King? Got burnt in association with Wallace but seems to talk a lot of sense on the radio.

Matthew Lloyd is another one I've been impressed with in the media - is actually prepared to do some research.

Both premiership players.

I think Laidley would be a great consideration too.

[Inner Demon 1]

Predicting who might make a good coach is pretty much guesswork for mine.

Who here would've guessed that Scott Watters would turn out to be the assistant coach behind one of the best defences in the league???

[e25 5]

Hey, John Meesen could easily turn out to be a great coach.

Who'da thunk that one?

I agree ID.

[e25 5]

Chris Scott is said to be looking at a role with a club in Melbourne if he doesn't get the top job at Geelong (unlikely).

Very highly rated.

We should make a big play for him to replace Wellman.
