Of course that was always going to happen

[saynta]

Simpson may coach his last game in round 18 with a new coach taking the reins for round 19. Which is of course against the Saints.

[Bruce G McAbee]

Even if he leaves now, we will still be in the honeymoon period of a new coach.
Just as well it isn't in the west.

[WellardSaint]

Well, he's gone now officially.
Don Pyke (CEO i think) said Simmo might coach this week, to which Simmo replied 'geez, Don, we haven't really decided that yet, hey'

So how does that affect our game in 2 weeks?

For those who wanna say 'a club that's just sacked its coach usually wins the next game'

NOPE since 2012, clubs that cut a coach are 5-7 in the next game.
5 wins
7 losses
That's not 'usually'

Why don't you google an article in SEN's website from 2 yrs ago after David Noble got da chop from Norf.
'The Win-Loss Stats after a coach departs a club'

I don't know how to link the article

Could we make a play to get Simmo at the club next season?

[Yorkeys]

Anyway, surely WCE's priority now is to get #1 pick. Nothing else to go for with a disposable temporary coach, Reid locked away and a bolted on fan base. Might have to settle for #2; they get another v North game but not another Tigers game and not sure who Richmond can win against for the rest of the year.

Anyway, I thought it might be worth getting Simmo at the club in a assitant coaching role

Who would you sack to do that?

You would think they're going to reshuffle the deckchairs next season regardless
Why not get a premiership coach in there to help Ross , or we could just do nothing

[bobmurray]

Apparently Simpson is going to toss the coin, wave to the crowd and then ride off into the football sunset for awhile.
