Gehrig as forward coach??

Given John Barker has gone back to Hawthorn what about Fraser as his replacement? He is well respected at St Kilda, has a good footy brain and by all accounts when Fraser speaks, everybody listens...

yeah reckon he would make a good forwards coach i might send that suggestion to him via my contacts if they have not approached him yet [ i am sure they probably are looking at trying to get him a job but hey any encouragement why not

might want to travel first he is in china at moment i read somewhere promoting foot ball [Aussie rules]

As mentioned in another thread. New voices & ideas please. Fraser is a good saints man, but not on the coaching panel at this point. Too close to the players !!

Yeah, he already provided a mentor role to the boys this year....more of a mate than a leader.

People are quick to scorn potential suitors, West and Thommo have been mentioned on other threads. They could be great coaches or duds....but to scoff when that has yet to be proven? There are plenty of current coaches, that are better at the coaching caper than being a good footballer...

He has previously stated that he is not interested in coaching.

Has significant interests in the Building and Restaurant industry that he will be wanting to spend more time on, i'd say.
