Unless I have missed it, we don't seem to have appointed a Specialist Ruck Coach for next year.
Kingy was a big help to Macca last year and he will need on-going support next year. With a young Jay Lever on board from the draft, a good experienced ruck coach would seem to be a good appointment.
Any chance of Gardi coming on board on a part time basis ??
i dont know if Gardi is really the right man for the job, heard he has been getting very very loose since retirement. Not really sure on how tactical he is as a ruckman though
One from left field could be Mark Blake. s*** around the ground but Macca's already good at that stuff. The thing he was really good at was tapwork, something Macca needs to work on and Blake could help him.

Not really fair to surmise about though, unless you are sure.
he was good because he was massive. is his teaching just as simple as "try to be fifteen centimetres taller than your opponent"?
Alot of people expected Burton to go into coaching after afl. People likened his leadership and communication to Adam Simpson. He's done wonders with zac Clarke in just a year.
