Pretty sure this is the way we'll be going.MalenyTiger said:
Grow the list and coach together as Dawkthorn did with Clarko, while we paid Plough top dollar for not much.

Liam Pickering was speculating on SEN Friday that he could probably expect $500k plus bonuses at the Kangas, and given Burns is on $300k at the WCE, around $400k at the Pies.
This is just his gut feel though.

*Do you get the impression Mitch "Tickets" Morton looks at himself in the mirror for hours on end each morning ?
*Anyone notice the difference in Jade's coaching yet ? Players are beginning to play for their coach...and the players appear to be enjoying their footy again...classic examples are Deledio, Newman, Edwards, Thursfield, Jack amongst others.
*Great call by Rawlings to drop Tuck...even though Tucky gets alot of the ball...geez he hurts us turning it over at crunch moments !
*I'm thinking Rawlings could be the man to keep at the helm...I don't want a Buckley, a Malthouse or a Hardwicke starting from scratch with us...Jade has a headstart on them...not frightened to drop the "villians" of our woeful performances...plus we don't get the "circus" the media put on if were to get a big name coach...sick to death of it...love the body language of our players since Jade has taken over.

I dont know if anyone else has a caught a glimpse of Jades press conference after the game??....but geez this guy is becoming more and more impressive. He is honest, straight down the line, no BS like wallace, no spin doctoring.....just seems a really terrific candidate for the position. I originally wasnt a fan...however this has certainly changed over the past few weeks.
I know all the hype surrounding Buckley, but i tell ya what - im liking what Jade is doing and i certainly feel the players are as one behind him.
GO watch the interview...makes some really good honest points about some players and the team and its setup - great stuff Jade.

Our midfield didn't seem to turn the ball over today as much as it seems to with Tuck in it. I guess our other players just had to work harder to get their own ball and when they did, they used it better than Tuck does.

Absolutely agree. It certainly looks as if the players are playing for the coach and each other unlike earlier this year.

Re: sorry Rosy my previous heading was inappropriate
Just proves how disposable Tuck actually is. We come up against quality opposition and it just seemed like he was no loss whatsoever. It might be difficult for him to slip back into a midfield rotation of Deledio, Cousins, Cotchin and Tambling. IMO I'd check his trade value in October, I'd take a 3rd round pick.RainsyBaby said:

Could not agree more. I dont want to get on the bandwagon to early, however, Jay will be the man if, as expected, we cannot snare Buckley.

The knock on him I've always had is his form for Coburg BUT Knights coaching stint at Bendigo was probably worse. Its a difficult choice Jade's coaching seems more meat and potatoes rather than innovative which may be what we need but would we advance? I'd love to see us with a coaching structure resembling Geelong's. I just hope we keep Jade if he isn't picked. Maybe bring him back as an Assistant Coach to the senior side.
I hope Jade the Blade gets the gig just listened to his presser he is really passionate about this club & speaks well doesn't take crap told Lids if he doesn't lift his game he would be wearing a Coburg jumper that is the type of coach we need someone who doesn't play favorites & gives games on merit!!
