Summary - 24/8/09Thomas said Richmond has some "spunk" about it whereas North doesn't. By spunk he means untapped potential that has been down a long time. Lyon under his breath said very untapped. Thomas asked Lyon who he would rather coach and Lyon didn't hesistate saying North.
Hutchy said a decision has been made but he can't say who it is as the candidates haven't been told (ie. he doesn't know
). Both candidates were interviewed yesterday and an announcement will be made on Wednesday. Caro admitted she doesn't know.
Hutchy had a go at North's coaching process and said Hardwick was aggrieved it. Hardwick had a full presentation prepared for North but was told by North to wait for a second interview. North then backed out of it. Caro believes North didn't think Hardwick was 100% gun-ho about North and couldn't afford another knockback so they chose Scott. If North were keen on Hardwick then the Prez would've met him. Hutchy said Hardwick would've taken the North job. Lyon said the North's process was fine and they got a good coach.
