Coach John Longmire - Part IV has resigned

[RUNVS]

It is crazy to think about by Sydney have not fired a coach in over 21 years.

There are Sydney fans who have known no other coach than John Longimre.

Did no one read the parts where he stated he wants to go into admin and take a different course in footy?

He hasn't stated he wants to step away entirely; he just wants to go into a different part of footy management. Like, not coaching.

They listen to want they want to

I have had about 22 , including 1 game ones

 

[bedford]

If you're happy getting pantsed over and over again when it really matters, good on you.

So good to have you back , so much positivity for the future

Aaaaand you've never had a thought and changed your mind a few years down the track? Especially as there would be blank cheques waved frantically in his face? Situations and thoughts can change over time you know.

Aaaaand since when has it become a crime for us to speculate about the future?
It's bad enough the forum hall monitor is having a crack because we have the nerve to chat about alternatives, but I didn't expect you to have a moan about it too Ticky.

And finally let me add that only a couple of months ago, we were told repeatedly there was no succession plan in place but now look whats happened! Things change.

Who will be Cox,s right hand man,he needs an assistant.

There would be players who have only known Longmire as the Swans coach.

remember when Hardwick, Clarko, Blight, Barrasi, Eade, Voss etc all said they would never coach again .

Horse hung around long enough to get a new coaches polo is my theory , loves the free merch

Genuine question but what is Stuart Dew doing?

Genuine question but what is Stuart Dew doing?

Working at the Lions who brought him on properly after the GF. He turned us down.

I always thought Dew was being groomed to take over from Longmire.Harshly treated by Gold Coast.

 

[Aardvark]

Will go to Tassie where he'll never be haunted by having to prepare another GF team.

 

[Kiama Chris]

All of them. None played under Roos.

Literally right now?

I reckon Matthews

McVeigh (Mark) probably has the seniority, based on experience at GWS.

Personally I think we're still 1 assistant short with Jarrad McV going to the VFL, so I'd be looking externally for the senior assistant role.

Well right this second there is a good chance he is line at McDonalds.

Well we have Leon Cameron in charge of our academy so he could likely step up.

I think he's the football GM these days.

HE HAS ALREADY said he's not as Adam Kennedy had come on board

I struggle to see how losing the senior coach AND an assistant, is offset by a development coach who just finished playing.

When we could do with the help and new ideas.

Maybe. But I'm not sure the right direction to help us fix up our grand finals is to hire one guy and involve another more, that have actually performed worse than us on the big stage.

It's good it's fresh what we need someone straight out of the game , look at the experience with the rest of the panel .
I don't know what you people want
