The irony of Essendon’s approach at the moment is delicious. I have just watched Barhams presser. So….let me get this right…..
They want a new coach as soon as possible. It needs to be a seasoned coach. So therefore by extension newbies need not apply.
They will run a full and thorough “process” as well as launch a full and thorough external review “process”. The Essendon football club is well capable of running these concurrently. Apparently.
So…….a new but seasoned coach thinks ‘gee, I can’t wait to coach the bombers, they are the bestest!” And he does his comprehensive pitch with hopefully a fully functioning laptop that can do a ripper PowerPoint presentation. Color’s. Graphs. Music. The lot. And the board does say” and Lo, you shall be our new coach you good thing”.
And the new coach goes home all chuffed. Then after he starts working through what he has to do and how to and who to use within the club, the external review is completed and half the people he thought he would use are to be terminated. And they recommend not to use PowerPoint as there is a new presentation program. And he is disillusioned and sore afraid that he will be “Ruttened”.
Essendon could NOT run a school tuck shop at the moment!
Happy Happy days!!!!
