Re: The Reasons re Watters
from the australian.......
"The Weekend Australian understands that the tipping point in Watters's axing was his agreement this week to hire assistant coach Ashley Prescott without consulting Pelchen. Prescott, who worked with Fremantle in recent years, was to have replaced Laidley."

has more of a ring of truth about it than the crap printed by caro at the age and various flogs at the hun.......

No truth to this that this had anything to do with his departure.
He was already gone before this.

Essentially the list seems to be just about everybody.
Perhaps you might like to start a list of those that would work with him , and believe he was doing a good job?

But knowing how Scott got himself on radio yesterday, and lied to SEN and the club, shows you what the man was made of.

Re: The Reasons re Watters
Watters got on the radio in an effort to save face, knowing the knives were out for him- just getting on the air and saying all is OK without consulting those who he works for, is a silly career move..and it bombed.

well...come out with the real reasons if you are in the know....because we certainly aren't....and neither is the press from what i can make out........everyone is just sprouting bullsh!t..........any one of us could have written all those articles...with the exception of the australian prescott reference and the reference to juoy wanting out......just from all the rumours running in the various threads on here....and some of the scum press probaby did use this forum and things posted by you......as their main source of information.....read gossip....jaxons wrote:We would have been a laughing stock if we kept him Stinger.stinger wrote: so you say...

Stinger you are not speaking the truth here and speculating.
Jayme you are correct.
The other 2 had a complete relationship meltdown with Scott, hence wanted out.

well..the club president at the time of his press statement said he was unaware of scott's sen interview and that it had nothing to do with the decision to sack him....flowered if i know........everyone appears to be telling porkies ...afaiw....spert wrote:Watters got on the radio in an effort to save face, knowing the knives were out for him- just getting on the air and saying all is OK without consulting those who he works for, is a silly career move..and it bombed.

i'm speaking the truth as i know it....a club insider told me that the fitness guy wanted to go back and work with eade...and that he had been offered twice the money we were paying him.......i was also told that in an effort to keep him.several wealthy supporters had bee asked to dig deep into their pockets.......he still had one year on a contract to go, so we could have kept him as a reluctant employee....true of false....???
laidley and watters were close.....he was on a two year contract which has just expired.....he had previously played under malthouse and was one of his assistant coaches in the past........the scumbaggers(read malthousre) were keen to recruit him and offered him sh!tloads more money than we could pay......true or false.....????

..taken from the flog's article...
"Watters’ sacking comes after the departures of assistant coaches Dean Bailey and Jaymie Graham and fitness boss Bill Davoren, while his relationship with football boss Chris Pelchen remained strained.
Summers admitted there had been infighting, but denied it was the deal-breaker in Watters’ demise."
if he got that wrong...what else isn't true...???
anyway the president came out and denied that these realionships had nothing to do with him getting the sack...the club has also been quoted as saying that they had not discussed his coaching with scott...wasn't an issue...

Ok, so the editor at the H-Sun has obviously not picked up on a typo that says Bailey instead of Laidley.....big deal.
As I stated earlier, the President and the club were not going to bag Scott and his relationships in public, and nor should they.
And I won't be doing it on here.
Quite frankly Stinger, it is done and dusted, and in life you need to look forward, because you cannot change the past....only the future.

Stinger, not saying what was written was crap at all.
The reason I summarised this post from others article is that all things written were accurate and it didn't have to be me delivering the reasons.
You are hanging on to a typo mistake and using it as justification that the information is inaccurate.
I am telling you it is accurate, so please revisit the start of this post, all the reasons outlined and tell me if you still believed the termination wasn't justified.

Re: The Reasons re Watters
Jaxons can you confirm or deny that you have been authorised by the club to disseminate information to members and supporters?
