And now Rob Beveridge will be announced as West Sydney coach. Look for some promising juniors to join him.

Think Stacker has been screwed big time in this decision. Out of the 3 he was definately most qualified. looks like the Hawks have gone with the cheap option as i heard Beveridge wasn't going to be cheap either. Maybe finances in the Gong are worse than people speculate!

Personal reasons meant that Stacker could not accept the position.

Personal reasons??? Such as not wanting to coach a crap team for a crap salary?

do we know what those personal reasons are? surly if he put his hand up for the role, personal decisions would have been made prior to applying.

A family thing. But yes Statman, on top of the season they're about to have and dodgy salary they were probably offering!

I feel the new guy is on a hidingto nothing - oh well time will tell I hope for the sakle ofthe comp they can do better than Im expecting!
as for Stacker - surely he would be a good option as an assistant with the Boomers - If he isnt tied to a club team it gives him the ability to move around a bit and be in regular touch with all the guys?

Statman, there is about as much chance of Boy Goorj hiring Stacker as there is that Brisbane didn't go over the salary cap.

Ian Stacker wanted the job and is disapointed at not getting it. I would say the reason was that Eric came a bargan basement price.
Now look for Stacker re-locating back to Melbourne.
