Are there any more Scott brothers?

He'll get a job as a senior coach againJoe Lynn Turnip said:Gee this place is slipping - three pages in already and no-one's suggested we get him to assist Hardwick yet.
IanG said:Based on a tweet I've just read it may be that the decision was made purely to save money.
Phar Ace said:There is some logic to that with a raft of semi-seasoned assistants around. I'd add Hinkley to that list Brodders. Also, would Cambo be a shot at the Bulldogs after being told some years ago to go and get some more experience elsewhere.Eade is such an easy choice for Melbourne, and they've stated they want a very experienced coach.
I'd be surprised is Primus endures too.

He was told that by Terry Wallace when he finished playing, that`s why he went to the Bulldogs to get experience before Wallace got him back to Richmond as an assistant.

Why do you say that- Eade has achieved 2/3rds of bugger all in his coaching career, and he has had good lists to work with.Smoking Aces said:Silly move.
NZ Tiger said:Eade would seem a perfect fit at Melbourne for mine.
Joe Lynn Turnip said:I thought Sheedy pioneered the flood. I know he pioneered "icing the clock" which is almost as bad and why it was so hilarious to see all the Bummer flogs get so upset at Bowden back in '08.
FLOODING
Then Sydney coach Rodney Eade is widely acknowledged as the inventor of 'flooding'.
Rodney Eade: "I'd watched a bit of soccer, and they've done it since the year dot. And when I was playing footy as a kid, the coach would always say: 'If the opposition has the ball 60 metres out, our midfielders need to get back and block up some space to stop the full-forward.' It was a matter of educating the (Swans) players to move up a line when the opposition got the ball so we could block space. In the third game of '96, the players took to it en masse and all got back. There was no actual directive from the coach's box. The players just had a real thirst for knowledge and it ended up being a real positive for us because it also created a lot of space for Tony (Lockett). Other teams initially didn't really know how to counter it, but eventually they started moving the ball slowly and methodically.
