Selection of Paul Roos successor

[demonoid 317]

Kevin sheedy says hi. Being a strange unit didn't do him any harm. If it is kirk and we get some sheedy sort of success I'll be stoked

[Theo 276]

no, i ran in to him once and had a little chat. Let's just say, the conversation i had and the tv intro he gave are consistent with one another. He just goes about explaining things a little differently.

Eg. when going from A to B, one would think to take the most direct route, whereas Kirk went to C & D before finding his way to B.

Sounds like Dermott Brereton

[Dee1987 277]

Hoping its Kirk, wasnt the most talented player but had the keep hard at it leadership on the field and lead the way in that bloods culture under Roos. 2 years coaching Freos midfield in their dominance plus hopefully another 2 or 3 under Roos (if he is the successor) should make his transition in to senior coaching a little easier than some others.

Surprising then that he was a grand finalist midfield coach.

Even more surprising that Ross Lyon would employ someone like that. Doesn't strike me as the type that suffers fools too well.

I've met Brett at albury sports club and had a drink with him and he speaks fine, he's a little different but knows the game inside out and knows the direction roosy is taking us inside out

[STN91 32]

2 years under Paul Roos would be Ideal for Ling or Voss and hopefully Paul Roos influence will still be around the club in a new job 2017

Voss no

Have you noticed that umpires love pinging the kids for holding the ball no attempt

what does this have to do with Roos' successor?

[STN91 32]

Deeflog*. Not much at all*. But I'd hope we can get someone like Brad Scott*. Happy?

someone like brad Scott is the last type of coach I want

[STN91 32]

Deeflog* a coach that has a winning vision and backs the 21st player up is not who you want? Cool*

[STN91 32]

Ps deeflog* a coach that knows how to win

[STN91 32]

Petrie is still one of the best forwards in the league on his day and Macca not having a good game a couple of weeks ago was a learning experience not a big deal. Welcome Macca back in!!

School holidays mono.

Mono brow and moonsht, just making some well educated comments. Would love to have someone give a decent replacement for roos but it's hard, so started making some observations

Chris Scott god no! Throws his arms up in the coaches box at every umpire decision. He is far from a coach that knows how to win. What happend last week?

[censored] of the highest order. He isn't a good coach thats for sure. Its record speak for itself.

Indeed, they were very well educated comments. Some of your finest. Nice.

[Yossarian 1,820]

Have a listen to this guy talk on Open Mike and then come back and tell me that he wouldn't make a good AFL coach.

[Dee1987 277]

Kirk wants to get the best out of himself regardless of talent just more so desire, which I'm sure would make him a good coach even though he think a little different, players like Pedersen Bail etc would thrive under him and a couple of more seasons under Roosy would both him and the club in good stead!

[Kureemy 22]

Wow, Brett Kirk. What an impressive human being.

[Deeoldfart 8,088]

Having re-watched Open Mike from 2009, it just reinforced in my mind how good a coach Brett Kirk would be if he decided to coach Melbourne. A year or two as Roosy's understudy, and the transition from Roos to Kirk would be seamless. That's what we want!

[Dee1987 277]

On the same page as Roos it's seems, there has been a rumour flying around ( take it as a grain of salt) Jude Bolton could also be a target!

That rumour is carp though.

Bolton is an accredited player manager and has a career in the media that is growing.

He has no interest in coaching.
