I ran into Ben Hunt's aunt on the dogs' walk last night
He's the new Head Coach of Norwood's womans programme
Good on him - ripper bloke

She didn't know for sure (chicken / egg) but I assume he got that appointment so PNU had to find a new Coach and Macca went for / got it

Coaching seniors these days just isn’t that rewarding let’s be honest.

Players in particular expect from the coach a full time effort, and want all the professionalism in the world. Yet they hardly ever give the same in return.

Now that footage is available to view of all games, you need to watch and study your own performance as well as the opposition. Not including all day Saturday, you’d be looking at nothing under 15 hours a week(and that’s been generous if you added up all the time spent texting and calling people)

At the end of the day, you’re at the mercy of how talented your playing group is and how driven they already are.

Am yet to see a coach carter type who can miraculously turn chick 5hit into chicken salad based solely off his coaching influence.

and then they leave and chase money when they are found out or held accountable for performance.
