Do we have a Plan B?
To all intents and purposes it appears RL will be our next coach. Emphasise on appears. Do you think the club has a Plan B if RL doesn't want the job or is it really a fait accompli? Sorry for new thread.

Re: Do we have a Plan B?
I have to imagine given what a highly controversial move this was right from the outset…
That RL really was already in the bag before the trigger was pulled. The club pbly didn’t speak to him formally, but I’m sure he was sussed out and unofficially committed before hand.
It may even be that the trigger was pulled because RL was considered a better choice and available
It’s interesting isn’t it…
GT copped a lot of flak for the old not going through the process situation in 01. Suffice it to say that I doubt a process is in play here.

Re: Do we have a Plan B?
They should talk to Ferrari about plan B. They also have plan C and D

Our 2022 season and a typical Ferrari F1 race are unfortunately strikingly similar!magnifisaint wrote: ↑Tue 18 Oct 2022 12:00pm They should talk to Ferrari about plan B. They also have plan C and D

Re: Do we have a Plan B?
We didn’t have a plan B in our trade period
Didn’t have a game plan, plan B
We aren’t big on Plan Bs it seems

Your comparing GT who was caretaker and then suggested he was the best candidate , had only coached Warrnambool prior to that …to be a 4 time GF AFL coach with a 57% strike rate across 300 games whose been chased by 4 clubs???????
Are you serious??????????
It’s not even a sensible comparison….geezus

It’s a done deal. All the rest is just theatre.

If/when RL signs on, I’m onboard. Certainly seems like 2023 definitively got a lot more interesting and my hope is that you shove the club’s success in my face for years to come. Not everything is GT v RL. The civil war is long over
