South will name Darren Trevena as the Senior Coach and a number of SAFC members will wax lyrical about what a great bloke he is and how his experience with the AFL system will change everything and that we will soon be in the finals and so on, three years from now the same people will be calling for his head having thrown another favorite son of the club onto the football scrap heap with the others. Its what the SAFC have done to every coach since Rick Davies was sacked from the club. - they have had rookie coaches, experienced coaches, rival SANFL coaches and burnt the lot. Sadly Trevena will be no different.
Andrew Jarman is the only candidate that presents the SAFC with a different model in terms of a radically different structure from someone outside of the losing culture that is the SAFC. His ideas concerning football academies for example are exactly what our feeder SFL sides could do with right at the moment. Whilst there is plenty of criticism of Jars, he lifted North up the ladder and is the right candidate for South for where we are at, in this point in time. If South just go through the motions and pick the ex SAFC player, we will continue to get the same results that we have always gotten.
