It often amuses me that so much speculation is givng to this bloke or that blokes ability to coach based as much as it is often on the basis of a playing career.
Coaching is ALL about an understanding of the craft and the ability to communicate and teach it. They dont have to play, they have to be able to Coach, to facilitate, to empower.
Some very good player cant coach for sh!t..some can...and vice versa....and possibly all grades in between.
Im prepared to trust the club in its desire and ability to build a top notch footy dept full of able coaches. Sure, not a kick in anger yet but theres certainly a methodology and purpose in their efforts thus far.
I for one am very interested to see how al lthis rubs off and effects our list.
