As if being cowed by Kochie into sacrificing a home game to further Port's interests wasn't bad enough.

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

Just had a flash of the blinding obvious:

Jarryn Geary had to go to a Chinese Hospital. And as someone who has been in a Chinese public Hospital, (in Fuzhou and Chengdu though, not Shanghai), this does not bode well for him. Although they may well have sent him to one of the fancy rich people/foreigner hospitals, which are better.

Also, he now has to endure an 8+hour flight with a broken leg. A broken leg thathas probably not been dealt with to the standard that a professional athlete is used to.

Well drat, what could've been a very good round (Tigers lose, Collingwood lose by less than a kick, Crows win, Brisbane beat Hawthorn, Carlton cement their spoon winning position) has been somewhat soured by Geary's injury.

He has a broken fibula (the small bone) which is nasty but considerably better then the Tibula.

Sack the players.

Bolton should have remained til the end of the season but the club are cowards and gave in to media pressure.

Any assistant coaches taking over won't be any better. Besides, look at the skills of the players the past few weeks. The coach is only a small part of how bad we've been.

You could do worse than Roos provided you were happy to treat this as ground zero and ignore the previous 6 or so years of rebuild.

Brad Scott sure would be an interesting choice though.

surely roos makes more in the media these days than what a coaching gig could offer him, as well as less stress and commitments to go with it

Maybe, but a coaching gig is still 1.5-2m per year, with payout clauses. Bolton would have gotten a big payday today given he was re-contracted til 2021 in the offseason.

I don’t care either way, I’m just curious: do those mega payouts to sacked coaches count towards the football department spending cap?

I’m guessing no, nobody would ever sack a coach.

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

I'm also curious about Coaches pay. One would assume they would be salaried, but do they get paid per matchday like the players?

And would Rhyce Shaw be getting more now he is the "Head Coach" than he was as an assistant? How would they calculate that?

These are silly questions that are probably very easily dealt with by the respective clubs/coaches contracts. But still I am interested.

I thought the cap just kicked in a redistribution payment equal to however much you went over the cap(so every dollar over you have to put another dollar into the redistribution fund)?

Yeah it does but if a club that would usually benefit from that redistribution like north had to pay out a million bucks to their sacked coach and that is counted in their cap, that makes it an even more expensive exercise.

Shouldn’t go giving questionable coaching contract extensions then I guess.
