And yet you're reserving judgement on Jones who has what experience exactly? He's led us to 1 win in 9, which arguably came before he even stamped his own style on the team. His tactics have been somewhat bizarre as has his team selections. He's now suggesting we bring back Bridge or Smeltz when I don't think our attacking options are the main concern right now. And I'll put my ****ing house on him re-signing Kantarovski.

Jones was the assistant when the teams best season and the following year when they won the grand final, and during Branko's stint he put a lot of work in with the team [ along with Ljubo] when Branko himself had simply pissed off home. Which shows he's someone not afraid of a challenge. Unlike Miller who did not have the balls to square off with an assistant he didn't want around.

Is he a world beater ? No. But he was probably a less risky proposition than Miller ever was.

Rado is the greatest wing man in football history but stank the joint up when given the keys to the executive washroom.

Very true. Miller and Jones are probably carved from the same stone.

Yes it is. Herald article

Might as well just get GVE back with that logic.

And I thought Miller squaring off with Trani was what got him sacked.

I agree that GVE would have been a less risky proposition than Miller. But he's also proven to be not up to the job and has been known to negotiate his future elsewhere without permission while still under contract. So GVE is definetly not someone I would want at the club.

Miller didn't have the people skills required to lead the club. It was evident at press conferences and it was evident with the Trani debacle. He should have solved it or he should have approached the CEO to solve it for him.

You see what leadership is all about with Ernie Merrick's resignation. He basically said his team had the players but not the results and he held himself solely responsible for their position on the ladder.

Congratulations to Gypo CEO and Jones to actually get this done.

This is the type of thing competent clubs can do.

See a player has no future and get rid of them.


Just goes to show it is possible.

Now onto Brennan and Cooper

I like hoffman was really good last year. Just needs to find his form again

Hoff can't and never has been able to deliver a decent cross into the box to save himself. No idea when he gets forward State league material.

There is hardly a player in the HAL that can cross. He is hardly alone. Even so called "wingers" can't cross
