Not sure that the westies squad need a first time coach with no experience -- i believe they will seek a coach who has coaching experience with young players
Present reserves coach gavin colville would have to be a real chance given the performances that he has achieved with a very young and changing on a weekly basis reserves team
From what I'm hearing Scott Thompson is doing everything he can to set up himself for coaching after football. Has done all the accreditation courses, has helped out at Henley FC in recent years and most likely only took his current role at the AFC because of this ambition.
Problem is, does West Adelaide have the cash to remunerate a coach who wants it as a full time position for an apprenticeship for the AFL?
