The Dead Pool no 2

With Terry Wallace and Dean Laidley now gone from their respective AFL coaching roles, who will be the next AFL coach sacked or to quit?

I dont think Bailey will get the chop or walk he only just started and they have improved their competitiveness this year and they will again get a good go at this years draft. Williams, Malthouse and Harvey are the other three IMO that may go and if they do i would be surprised if it didn't happen within the next fortnight as they will want to get the best pick of talent that is available.

I cant see Williams quitting, the only way he will not coach Port next year is if the club do not re-appoint him.

To be honest I think the Roos and Tigers will be the only ones looking for coaches this year.

Freo will give Harvey one more year and IMO Port will give Williams a 2 year deal.

Depends on how the Power finish the year, If they don't make the finals then I reckon Williams will be joining the queue at Alberton Centrelink.

Well stories hitting the media (if true or not who knows) about certain players will walk out of Port if Williams is not re appointed, since when did the players have a say in who coaches a side, surely there must be some sort of issues there as the Power are on and off more than a light globe out the front of a brothel ;)

Exactly, and the board/club management hasn't exactly paid too much attention to coach or players so far this year, just look at the process that resulted in Cassisi being appointed captain.

Never a good situation to get into, even if the players are right.

And if some players even think they have that much power in the club, there needs to be a big clean out..

I don't know how true this is but an old soccer ref who still does the occasional game or two at my work was telling once at West Adelaide soccer club, that the players threatend to walk out if the coach was to be sacked. So the owner cut all 11 players and bought 11 new guys in and then sacked the coach. :D
