That's a bit of silly thing to do in my opinion.

Don't get me wrong, I rate Scott a lot, but what was the point signing him for 4 years? What if North have bad years the next 2? Seems risky for no good reason. Scott is still unproven.

I still rate him as a very good coach. In fact when the Pies lost him late in 2009, I think it hurt a lot.

[roo boys!]

Good news, but yeah must have a lot of faith in him to sign him for that long. Which is a good thing I guess!

Perhaps there was the possibility he could have been poached so they're tying him down now?

Yeah,good move to show long term faith in a bloke taking them in the right direction

im happy having faith in him, stability is the key for growth. We showed last year we wernt ready another year and another 18-22 games into the younger kids and if we do make finals this time we should have a real shot at progressing.
