Damn good assistant coach though, was never a yes man.
Considering you can't show him the respect of spelling his name correctly, he's really made an impression on you!

Tony, are we after anymore assistant coaches or will the last spot be filled from within the ranks ?


The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Who is coaching the forwards?

Surely we have to appoint a new physiotherapist?!

Roughs job is to ‘break-in’ the young promising players. (By breaking their legs)

Mental toughness thing.


You're quite brilliant Shane, yeah..terrific!

Not sure if you’d be game enough to say that directly to Roughy’s face… Would you?

You are making a joke about Ben suffering a horrific accident which could impact his whole career.

It’s not appropriate and not funny.

Gazumped again by the Dopers

Highly-rated assistant Dale Tapping is set to join Essendon in the latest move in what has been a frenetic period of change in the assistant coaching landscape.

If he was such a good assistant

Why was he not recontracted?!
Sometimes organisations need change and renewal through change. Most of us wouldn’t have a clue about this guy, so why are we commenting at all, except to say thank you for your service, we wish you well for the future.
Great post
Sad you had to post that to educate black and white people views so they get it that sometimes people moving on isn’t about a bad performance it can also just be time for change and new ideas
FFS that’s so obvious

You don’t change things that are WORKING for new ideas

He wasn’t working

Many coaches and assistants have been at clubs 12-15-20 years if they have success.

Skrobalak was moved on due to lack of success

He didn’t get a job elsewhere in the AFL

Even though there are multiple AC jobs on offer

You actually do change things that are working and for good reason. People get stale, ideas get stale, there is a time to stay and also a time to go. You don’t really know if he was moved on due to a lack of success. Maybe he didn’t want a job at AFL level. Maybe the VFL job suited his personal circumstances. But to stay ahead of the game we need to change and be less predictable and maybe a change is coaches was for that reason. I don’t really know and neither do you.


Rugby League would have to be the stupidest, most moronic and over rated game of all time.

Also why do you have to be so abrasive and confrontational with every post??

So you are now the 'inside information guru'? Its quite humurous that you are purporting to have any more knowledge of the internal workings of the club than the rest of us.

So e would say Alistair Clarkson was “still working” at Hawks
Infact I’d argue their finish to the season was better than many other sides
Hawks moved him on
Why????????? ??????
Time for change
Happens in many organisations often
Time to update your knowledge

It does
Look I’m guilty myself at times when attacked but Stinger/Saynta has a long history and is often left unchecked on here (he will run straight to mods though when you get the better of him so you need to know that).
I’ve been banned 4 times this year
I don’t attack posters who offer different views as long as it’s delivered in a civil manner.
I can’t stand over emotional rants that make no sense
