So we could have let the rumours run wild for another 3 months and then parted ways, but instead when it came to light all parties were upfront and honest and parted ways now, a much more mature way to deal with the issue.

Or you could have employees of the football club that didn't go snitching to the media cause they clearly wanted Brad gone that day not end of the year.

Does anyone's coaching tenure ever end at the end of a season and a new coach take over the following year? Most are sudden and during the season.

At a guess I'd say there will be a few exits this season, who is most vulnerable?

Bolton
Woosha
Richardson
Hinkley
Goodwin
Beveridge

In that order? Maybe Hinkley higher?

Safe as houses?
Buckely
C.Scott
Simpson
Fagan
Hardwick
Cameron
Clarkson

Bolton and Woosha are in strife you'd think.

Barring anything dramatic I think Hinkleys safe because of termination cost, Richardson has done well with what he has and to this point deserves to hang on, Goodwin should still be safe and Beveridge too for another season. But all 3 along with Pyle would want to get some favourable results next season.

Gomer?

I'd say the 3 mentioned have some credits in their account. Ross Lyon has Freo over-achieving this year so far.

Richardson was gifted a piss easy draw early on, in saying that I think it's a real danger game this week for the Power.

Worsfold is a fair chance not to see out the season. A loss to Carlton this week would be the final nail in his coffin.
If Cameron doesn’t atleast make a Prelim you would think he is in strife also

I think King thinking he still is, is the very reason Scott can't stand him.

King accused Scott of not buying into the "Shinboner" spirit, how can someone measure something that isn't tangible, isn't measurable, in someone they don't know? Makes King sound like a right flog, if he didn't already.

Leon Cameron has to be in huge trouble if the 'Ferrari' can't make it deep into September, still no evidence this guy knows how to drive.

The rumour was there either way, we could have denied it like most clubs would, we didn't, we were honest with our members/supporters, not sure how else the club could have handled it better?

I reckon the insider was Scott himself. Let Robbo know and waited to see what happened. He and Robbo seemed very lovey dovey last night on AFL 360 which seemed quite strange considering he broke a story which brought down his downfall.
