Welcome to the club Allan

[saintnick12]

Caroline Wilson's article directly quotes their CEO conceding they have lost him.
They will let him go, AFL will step in if need be. Kochie is grandstanding.

[Stillwaiting]

Of course he will be let go. I think they have to under an agreement with clubs bot Kochie is doing the right thing by his club. he aint no d**khead. Lets hope Summers is as good a president in getting our club out there.

Agree about Summers, if Koch is gobbing of in the media then we need him to be publicly on the front foot. He doesn't need to rant but at least be firm about it and not back down.

So squealing that the club won't be letting him leave when he knows they will be letting him leave, and he is leaving isn't being a d**khead?

Another un tried coach. I'm so excited and hopeful . f*** me. Harves should have stepped up in that case!

The Age says the media pack is camped out at Seaford. i was worried it was getting too late in the day to announce a presser, but doubt now that will be an issue.

While we're waiting, here are some nice things Hinkley said about Richardson's prospects as a senior coach in September.

Sam Edmund from the Hun, 2 minutes ago …

"Alan Richardson bunkered down inside Saints' Seaford HQ after sneaky side door entrance. Saints say they're waiting for Port clearance."

In happy the only question is why wasn't Tudor sounded out. Seems odd process I wouldn't pick much difference between rich and Tudor

might have something to do with comments attributed to him after he left....

[Teflon]

Tudor wouldve been my preference.
