Who's going to coach North? - Francou Appointed

[dedja]

Always 'talks tough' on radio. Will be interesting to see how he fares.

Exactly. Very happy to shoot his mouth off at everyone and everything, lets see if he can walk the walk.

Agreed with these calls!

[southee]

now to get some players

Correct.

They had the players ...just did not perform to what they could of in 2010.

Time will tell if JF can change that,

ok, time to get some players who want to be there for the right reasons.

not sure why you're shooting your mouth off- he gave your mob good service.

He sure did, was an absolutely brilliant player.

Something has to change out "Rooster Land"

I don't think it's the coach....?

The "CLUB" needs a Boot up the rrr's

Management needs a change.

Sorry.

Form an Management Committee.

Go Out and Buy The Best Managemant in the Land.

Forget about what it costs.

People in the same job for too long is a backward step. This is incorrect if you look at both Kris Grant & Roy Laird.

You need new blood all the time.

But people in power can only see the great job they are doing.

Wake up and Move on for the benefit of your club.

They could do a lot worse than use the 'Ray McLean' model implimented by Central Districts some years ago. It certainly has worked for them.

[aceman]

Handby has made no secret to many that he wants to continue his career at Prospect. Maybe our new coach(es) and fitness team can get him into shape (along with M. Wundke!)

I heard he signed with Gepps Cross along with Ben Warren?

Wrong!

[aceman]

So getting this thread slightly back on track...does anyone know when an announcement is likely?

Very strong that Josh Francou will be the man.

Bingo!!

[unknown source]

it will be good now Francou can't bag the AFL coaches and AFL players and now people can bag him

coaching North didn't stop Jarman...

Seems some previous talk that Healy had lost the support of his players, may have been incorrect. At least in this instance.

Interesting article, but its not the first time Archard has quit a club (third time I think)......maybe just an excuse?

[Wedgie]

Of course Archard liked Healy as Healy kept giving him the job of kicking out from full back even after Archard had given away about 100 goals from short inaccurate passes in that role.
Let's hope Francou gives that role to someone who can do the opposite and kick it long and accurately.

James Allan's Magarey Medal victory speech pretty much alluded to the fact that he was upset that Heals had been sacked as coach. I have a feeling that many players felt the same way. I could be wrong though.

What I found interesting was that in the same article Archard said he was sure North was going in the right direction for 2011, and also said it was a 'war zone'. A war zone heading in the right direction.

Sounds like a GW Bush statement about Iraq.

Alleway to full back!

It seems there are at least a few players not happy with the sacking. Doesn't make much sense, if our team liked him as a coach so much then why did they play such uninspired garbage for him throughout most of 2010?
