Tony Liberatore was interviewed last night on SEN around 8pm after he accepted the senior coaches position at Sunbury Football Club and he went on to say how he interviewed for the Melbourne senior coaches job also previous to accepting the position and how he was significantly more impressed with the Sunbury football department professionalism and processes during interviewing than Melbournes.

Football department staffing positions hadnt been completed at that time and Riley, Fagan etc were all on the way out so was it a shoddy process the club went through or as asked above merely sour grapes that Libba now finds himself out in Sunbury?

I think Sunbury is a very fine destination for Libba and a fitting compliment for his coaching abilities.

I notice 15 other clubs absolutely brawling to get him in their Coaches department.

The reason he wasn't picked is becasue he had no fresh ideas of how to take th club forward.

Who really cares what the pipsqueak thinks? I don't think even I could take him seriously as a coach... And if the interview process was so unprofessional why did ju$$ say it was?

He sounds like a true professional to me. What was he doing wasting our time being interviewed?

Sour grapes. Most observers thought the club was taking a very professional and thorough approach towards its most important appointment and this twit wasn't happy because he was eliminated early. Did he really think he was a better candidate than Bailey, Sheedy or Hardwick? Maybe the club just wanted a man the players could look up to!

Anyway Libba, good luck at Sunbury. It's a nice part of the world and the crowds are small enough for you to avoid major embarassment when addressing the palyers at the 3/4 time huddles.

he obviously didn't get very far in the process, did he speak to anyone from the club, or was he culled by the recruiting company? of the list of applicants, he seemed to be the least qualified at the time, seemed like he was a kid in grade 2 wanting to play with the grade 5 kids...

but you've gotta feel for the bloke, he's gone from being an assistant coach at an AFL club, to coaching Sunbury, that's a massive reality check... it obviously says something about him though, not being able to find a job elsewhere, although apparently when he coached Box Hill i think it was, he did a good job...

there are so many positions out there for someone with his experience, VFL, TAC Cup, SANFL, WAFL, if he was really committed to it he should leave melbourne and go and coach in Adelaide or something...

to be honest i'm surprised he hasn't applied for the Sandy position... or maybe that's the interview he's complaining about!

You've summed the situation up perfectly

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
