In the next 3 years, what does Watters need to achieve?

[dcstkfc]

In order to get another contract?

[satchmo]

Needs to appease the mole that's blabbing to b4e!

[Old Mate]

Get a haircut

[hungry for a premiership]

A premiership would suffice.

[bigred]

Premiership.

That is all.

[Enrico_Misso]

Re-invigorate
Re-enthuse
Re-build
and
Re ward as with a Cup

[clarky449]

Obviously needs to stop Global Warming.

[loris]

Get a haircut

And if Harves remains as an assistant (which I hope he will) we will have two coaches needing a decent barber eh?

[loris]

Obviously needs to stop Global Warming.

And the illegal boat people coming to our shores

And he will need to negotiate a move back to The Junction Oval now that is a FACT he must address very early in his reign!!

Play the kids that are ready and want to have a crack, change up the game plan for a more attacking style and give the fans something to be really excited about beyond 2012

[Con Gorozidis]

Impossible to set any kind of benchmarks for scott.
We have an old group and a young group. Not many in betweeners.
So if we have no injuries we should be deep in it but if our older guys get injuries then scott should only be judged on our development progress.
So two totally different scenarios I think.

[Hurricane]

1. Win a Flag
2. Build a strong side based on quality youth that can bring sustained success
3. Build respect
4. NEVER lose to Fremantle
5. Retain the fire and passion and attitude I saw at the press conferance yesterday.

BANG BANG

In the last 20 years, every St.Kilda coach to last longer than two seasons has achieved a top four finish in their first four years.

Do we expect Scott Watters to achieve this?

[spert]

A Premiership! 1971, 1997, 2009, 2010 x 2, all grand final appearances and no silverware. I don't think I could rock up to the G and watch another GF loss, nor listen to any more excuses for not winning one.

[dragit]

Retain and play the Messiah every week for 3 years, regardless of form…

[Rosco]

to hold his job? he needs to not miss the finals in year 1 for a start.

the top 5 teams from 2011 should hang around in the top 8 for the next 3 years. a few young teams are coming, and might be ahead of us in 3 years time given our ageing list and mid-twenties hole.

3 years from now is a risky time (2014) with our list:
- milne (34)
- lenny (34)
- fish (32)
- kosi (32)
- roo (32)
- joey (31)
- dal (30)
- goddard (29)

^ that list sums up our core great players (+ kosi) and i would be surprised if more than 4 of those will go round in 2015 (expect dal, joey, BJ and one other). conversely big mac & jack stevens should be hitting their peaks though, but that is not enough.

so, in 2014, watters will need to have developed some pretty key players to cover those losses (couple of mids, a couple of fwds and hopefully our young backs come up) so that the team is looking at least somewhat upwards in 2014. i don't think we need to make finals in 2014, but cannot be 11th or lower and heading downwards.

[SaintPav]

Get into a quarter time punch up with Lion and get a couple in. Lion is then found guilty of bringing the game into disrepute and is fined $7.5 million.

In 2014 we will be at the mercy of a rampant Gold Coast and Melbourne.

And how sweet 1 & 4 would be given our new coach's background with the Dockers and their massive financial commitment to our ex?

[Rosco]

say this at the press conference after out last game for 2014:

"i'd be lyon if i said that i'm committed to leaving the saints for 2015"
