John Morris Departs as Assistant Coach

[pawsandclaws1]

Yeah it’s a piss take why tf would a football club advertise on LinkedIn

It's a professional networking platform. I can understand a club attempting to lift its professionalism and standards would use this platform. It is also internationally recognised and the discussions about the former St Helens' coach appears to suggest the platform has a wide net. As for journalists laughing, often I read criticisms of journalists on this very forum.

Richo had linked us to him a year ago so he has probably been headhunted for a long time. It dosent cast a wide net as the only people applying on LinkedIn are idiots doing it as a joke, most professional nrl clubs would have many qualified candidates or would headhunt the people they want

Of the 100 odd applications which apparently have been lodged, how many were idiots who did it for a joke?

Shane Richardson Quote from interview “I went right all around the clubs in England because WE KNEW we were getting an assistant at the end of that year.

Question. Is Richo still working for WT? OR a self-funded devoted volunteer?

Maybe they agreed to some consulting work when neg his payout

What wrong with advertising the job publicly to possibly catch people they might miss

[You Know Who]

To the fools who are defending the club posting the position on LinkedIn, find me one other professional rugby league, or frankly any other professional sporting club that have advertised a senior coaching position on a platform like LinkedIn. At best, you may find some clubs advertising jobs on the administrative/corporate side.

As for the ignoramus saying “oVEr 100 aPpLicants”, you can just click the apply button and not submit anything after it takes you to the application and it’ll count you as an applicant. Know your facts before posting your ignorant takes.

This is just the latest example of the lack of professionalism and experience at the club.

Shows they don’t really have any connections in Rugby League circles, we possibly could have burned too many bridges

I've seen coaching jobs on seek many times over the years... perhaps not an NRL head coach job, but assistant coach jobs and even NSW cup coaching jobs.

Expired now but we even used seek when searching for a head coach... (NRLW)

You nailed it about not having any connections.

We’ve just got a bunch of inexperienced 05 boys in nearly every key position at the club and an inexperienced CEO in Shaun M (tbf think he has been good so far but he ain’t Richo).

Yeah a well connected HOF to assist SM was desperately needed

Not even a coaching position, let alone a senior coaching position and more based on the corporate side.

Again, not a coaching position and reports to the Pathways Manager, not the coaching staff.

For a NRLW NSW Cup team (not first-grade) and assistant in a "professional" competition that isn't even 10 years old with very limited pathways and experience.

I've seen coaching jobs on seek many times over the years... perhaps not an NRL head coach job, but assistant coach jobs and even NSW cup coaching jobs.

All of these are either related to the corporate/office side, reserve grade or for a women's comp that isn't even a decade old with limited pathways and experience to rely on.

Only Flanno applied so in desperation they probably panicked and spread the net of advertising, not rating him, bloody Norah.

Fair,

Definitely seen positions like this on seek over the years but as you said, not positions like head coach + assistant coach.

I would believe that these positions are snapped up quickly by utilising connections and word of mouth.

I've seen similar regarding corporate/ pathway roles being advertised which makes sense as there is a wider pool you can recruit from, but first grade coaching positions are rare, specialised and very small pool to recruit from. Like you said, they're snapped up very quickly via connections and behind closed doors.

Can almost guarantee the Roosters will never turn to LinkedIn for an assistant coach
