Assistant Coaches

[CarltonDry]

But but but it's not Madges coaching roster 🤦‍♂️

I’m pretty sure Shane Millard is our attack coach and Webster is our defence coach. Attack is going good, defence on the other hand has been the same for a few years now, average. Dean Pay would be a great defence coach, as much as the bulldogs sucked they won Mostgames by a couple points by just defending with him as coach.

Maguire is hands on with the defense....the role of assistant coaches really are a sounding board for the head coach to bounce things off..tweak things etc...Buck stops with the head coach..

Line speed whacking first contact is a MaGuire Trait ..it has improved this year bar this week..as opposed to all out scramble turn up for your mate Voldemort approach..

Geez if we are relying on an assistant we are in more strife than I thought..

They still need to learn to slide better ..still to many spook plays

Spook plays... New buzz word

What's this?

A few weeks ago Greg Alexander commented how Nofoaluma rushes up out of the line to tackle fresh air ...

He went on to say he needs to get this poor option out of his game ...

...rushing up out of the line and trying to “spook “ the opposition into making a mistake ..

“Spook play “

He reminds me of a youth cricket batsman attempting to get to the pitch of a leg spin bowler but beaten in flight. His eye is off the ball, his balance is wrong and he has gone to hard at the ball. He needs to get into the nets.

That’s one description .. ?

As much as I respect your posts @Geo I gotta disagree with your opposition to Assistant Coaches.
Didn't we try to get Laurie Daley as an Assistant coach recently?
What about Andrew Johns as a mentor for the slimy Eel Mitch Moses this year and how much he has improved his all-round game....he's now even got the guts to makes an occasional tackle!
What about Our Mighty Magpie Assistant Coach Brett Hodgson....a very good goal kicker.
So.... why is it that NONE of our blokes can consistently score valuable points from goals. Those 2 points here and there should have won games in the past, and can win games for Us in the future.
Craig Bellamy has mentored many Assistant Coaches, that have gone on to be 1st grade coaches themselves.
That's what Wests Tigers need....a Coach that can build a winning Team, and also build winning coaches.
None of Our current .Assistant Coaches have the ability imo to go onto better things....and they are not what we need right now.

Tim Sheens can be a ASS Coach

 

[trentrunciman]

unlike his brother Matty can communicate with people, ot worked for benji and Prince in 2005

i remember that.

the commentary said joey was working with Moses over the weekend.

It's a great idea and a given in my opinion. If i was Brooks i'd be doing my best to contact Matty or Sterlo et al to grow my game.

I’ll probably cop some heat for this take, but Shane Flanagan won’t be with the dragons next season. I don’t think he should be allowed to coach at all but I would take him as our defensive coach in a heart beat.

Yea looks like he has been told his services are not needed past this year. Good move by Griffin. I'm sure Mary was always looking over his shoulder. And NO wouldn't want Flanagan anywhere near WT.

I’m not a mod so downvote away, just be careful doing it to those guys in power here on the forum ?

Thought it was ridiculous Josh if that was why you were banned. Glad you’re back

I'd take him, he's a great coach.

Would bring plenty of drama no doubt but he can coach that’s for sure. Completely understand if anyone didn’t want him but he’s a good defensive coach

Just keep him away from the salary cap and the medicine cabinet. He's son is handy aswell

 

[Aubanon]

Cant have 2 alpha males coaching the same team.

Flanno is a head coach or nothing

flanno sponsored a drug cheating program....then got caught breaking the no contact rules while paying his penance....

no thanks

 

[Strider]

It raises a point, a great defensive coach would be handy for sure. Also a halves coach, work on Brooks long passing game, give him more options than short pass.

Let it go Josh - the reason was explained very clearly to you.

Was just answering someone else champ. Clearly you fellas didn’t let it go considering you talked about me for 10+ pages and stalked my Twitter ?

"those who can' do.... those who can't coach"

find the Noddy,or Finch... pricks of players, not because it wasnt on, but because they couldnt do it kind of players. The guys who can help you identify moments, get to said moments, though not tell you how to convert, and we all pray Brooks doing the rest without thought can figure the rest out himself.

he bloke has buckled to Benji and Robbie. Worst tradies ever to learn under. I dont rate him but bekieve he has the attributes to run us down the park.

 

[balmain boy]

I'd say we need three new assistants. Hodgo is rubbish and the other two can't be anything great. Fresh blood, new ideas, no previous allegiances.

No jobs for the boys. Just the best candidates.

And no to Flanno, even though there's a few good sorts in his stable.
