Rodney Eade

[SaintPav]

Is Rocket still in the mix at St Kilda and will he be interviewed or is he going to Collingwood for sure?

[Old Mate]

Nfi

i dont thinks its clear yet

[matrix]

reported on SEN this morn that he was going to collingwood

still no officiall announcement yet tho

[SainterK]

Mike Sheahan and Mark Stevens both confirmed, I reckon it's done.

He'll probably get more $$ as a director there, than coach here.

It's a win-win for me.

[Junction Oval]

Looks a lot like Rodney is out. Looks like a "young gun" will be in!

I'm used to old codgers bossing me around at work. My parents are old codgers and they still boss me around and so does the wife but she's not an old codger.

confirmed by magpies....SEN

[bigred]

Phew!

[Ross who?]

That's one we can cross off the list

[bigcarl]

I heard he's taken the Collingwood job, but only on the condition that he misses the senior coaching job at St Kilda.

I haven't heard that he's withdrawn his application to us, so I assume the interview will go ahead as scheduled.

It is believed the timing of the Saints' process was not ideal.

The Saints will hold the first round of interviews this week and enter the second stage next week.

It appears a decision on the job is at least a fortnight away, leaving Eade in a delicate position with clubs wanting answers.

Ah, okay, so the Pies beat us to the punch ... they are good.

Don't blame him for not wanting to run the high risk of being left unemployed while awaiting an answer from us while we go through the "process".

Personally I think we could have done worse and may still do.

Well I hope that all of those on here who are so convinced that Eade is a dud are right. Because it sounds from this article very much as if we might have been able to snare him if we had been prepared to move quickly.

Collingwood are a much more professionally-run club than us, and they obviously believe that Eade's knowledge and expertise were worth spending a large amount of money to secure as quickly as possible (it would seem within a day or two of Malthouse deciding he didn't want the role).

But, then, the Pies administration has clearly been remiss in not paying closer attention to the considered opinions of the experts on Saintsational.

Agree. The "process" ... what a crock. What's wrong with getting on the phone.

Well Eade did take the Brisbane Bears Reserves to a Grand Final win in, what, 1993? How can we possibly underestimate his prowess. Oh, and he did get the Swans to the GF in 96. You know, that year when the Swans had a bloke called Lockett kick 228 goals....

MB, Eade is a fire-mouthed all-talker who WB's players would be DELIGHTED to see the back of.

Frankly, I am amazed at the appointment at the Pies. Winder how Nathan Buckley feels about it? Hardly a vote of confidence in the much vaunted apprentice.

All I can think of is that Eade is media savvy and those 'talents' may see him shoulder a burden next season.

He has a track record of getting good results out of ordinary lists. His record of one grand final for one loss is better than Lyin's of three for two losses and a draw.

Slow out of the blocks again Saints I am not saying that Eade "should have" got the Saints job, but we should have been a week further into this process than we are. In that case. the Coaching Panel would have at least had a good look at/discussion with Eade. It's too late now !

Watters is looking more likely every day !

Maybe we just didn't want that badly?

Both Malthouse and Maguire have acknowledged that the decision for Malthouse not to fulfil his contact was made 6 WEEKS ago... so conceivably Eade could have been talking to the pies since BEFORE the St Kilda vacancy arose.

These decisions are never made in just a few days...
