Default Matthew Knights is the new Essendon Coach
Essendon has gone through a thorough selection process and they have named their coach.....Matthew Knights - 27th Sept.
Do you think it is a good decision ? Who would have you preferred ?

I don't think we have a thread on this topic RoosyRocks.
Not about what people think of Matthew Knights as coach anyway.

Im suprised they went with Knight's over Hardwick, although I'm still shocked that Sheed's isn't still coaching them. Big shoes to fill that's for sure. Look out for Sheeds to be coaching the Tigers in 2009.

I am fckin disgusted at this appointment. I would love to know on what basis they selected him. IMO there were at least 4 better options

Knights has done bugger all with the Bendigo Bombers. He comes from a team that tasted very limited success. Plus, although he was a good player, I always thought he was soft!

I don't know what he can bring to the club, that Hardwick, Daniher or even O'Donnell couldn't.

I hope he proves me wrong but I think this decision stinks worse than my gym socks!

At first, I thought ' I don't want Knights to coach us', and then I thought about it. He has had experience coaching at the Port Adelaide Magpies and the Bendigo Bombers. He is pretty young and he could coach the dons for possibly another 10 years. He said in his interview he is raring to go, and he says he will get us to play an exciting brand of footy. Whether or not everything he has said is true, that remains to be seen, but I am fairly confident he will do a great job ! Let's judge him after we see results !!

He done bugger all at the sides he coached.

I'd rather bag the decision now and hopefully be proved wrong! It's my way of venting! lol
