Been thinking about our coaching department and the Clubs strategy moving forward.
Is it possible the Saints have already lined up a replacement in 2020?
If they have then I doubt any of the assistants like Ratten would be the coach we are after, as it would be undermining AR and it's a bad look (though it's happened st clubs on the past)
Here are a few outcomes in 2019 after surrounding AR with a lot of support
1: we improve quite dramatically find out AR is capable and he stays on.
2: we basically increase marginally despite the help and we still don't know if we are on the right track
3: the club conclude he is not the man, we stagnate further and he gets the bullet mid season with a caretaker ( Ratten?) who then gets an audition for 2020
If I were a coach in waiting .. I wouldn't want to be there in 2019 under AR... but I would like the club to already have my assistants in the system for a year to get them ready for 2020
I know one who fits the bill nicely since the stars are aligned
WELCOME Alistar Clarkson ?
And if we want to try an untried coach
Welcome Banger?

Re: Coach in waiting 2020??
The Cho is coaching in 2019 for one reason only.
So Matt Finnnis can save face.
They will be hoping like hell for a miracle and chasing Longmire, Clarkson or a Scott brother.
If not it will be from Caracella, Burns, Longmuir, Mitchell etc

Who knows? Really? All just speculation. If Clarkson had his own handpicked assistants then , he MAY just get the job done.
St Kilda forever ( God help me)

The last three premiership coaches were all assistants to Clarko. Ratten will be the next.
