Just got a call from someone who is following this closely. Apparently deal done. He has chosen us. This comes from a media mate of mine. I am 99% sure as he has given me spot on news before.

Glad to hear? If thats the case when would the press conference be? I am guessing we will find out tomorrow?
 
Happy if true, it says a lot that he was being chased by 5 clubs and the AFL!

Apparently Caro said she thinks Craig is coming to us and article in tomorrow's paper. Was on 5AA.

Yep was listening to 5AA today and heard that too. Cornes and Rowe's sources all led to that conclusion as well. Think Rowey called him directly and the tiger song was playing as the messagebank or something to that effect.
 
Well you know what this means don't you. Neil is a keen student of the game, and he now wants to be a football Immortal. Good choice Neil.
 
I have always said that I am not sure about Neil Craig but despite my misgivings if he does come it says that we now have a club which can compete for talent in the marketplace . We have a Club that looks like an attractive proposition to work for .

That's a big change from the past
 
Does anyone know what role we have offered ?

Happy to see Craig in whatever role the club thinks he'll help us out in but I'd be a tad nervous if he was too involved in game day tactics or selection.

Please explain to me, why do we need this bloke?

Caro just mentioned on 3aw that Craig would also be senior midfield coach along with high performance manager type role. Then BT chipped in and said Craig had today knocked back the offer from Cricket Australia.

Don't know how close she is but FWIW....
