Official Bulldogs and Ciraldo agree to terms

[KoolDavid]

What did Brandy announce?

 

[Apex Cedar]

@Bulldogsteve might aswell reveal the Fb now since the coach is announced, we all know its Stephen Crighton.

I reckon it may be someone younger

 

[The DoggFather]

If true imagine Avo will shit the bed(more)being on borrowed time?

He started shitting the bed 3 weeks ago after "covid".

Maybe he knew he was gone lol

 

[top-dog]

5 year don’t they learn seriously it should have been 3 year deal with an extension he better deliver the goods

@Bulldogsteve is on the money.

 

[KiwiDog7]

At this moment yes he would be. It just appears that his ceiling is higher than Avos.

Maybe that's why Avo has turned to shit recently???

I think Crichton preferred position is FB, but is he really coming ?

Avo is a good young player though that’s has been dicked around by the club with so many coaches ( Ciraldo will be his 4th since his debut in 2020)

 

[Como Dog]

Why do people care if it’s a five year deal? Does it really matter for a coach.

Fair point.

 

[Mr Beast]

Wow. Cool. Awesome.

You can pay coach out unlike players, literally no issue he's on a 5 year deal

I'll let the man with the info say it as credit belongs to him.

PS he had this info a few weeks back.

Exactly, can't see the big deal TBH

 

[Cosmo24]

The untested Crichton. Maybe he will be good with a full off-season?

Christian? [emoji23]

 

[a dogs life]

Greg Alexander just confirmed it on FOX

Hopefully third time is a charm with a rookie coach.

 

[Moedogg]

What if it was Ciraldo's management who insisted on a 5 year deal given he was offered the same length of contract at the tigpies?

 

[Dogmonster]

Chrichton would be a massive upgrade on Averagefellow.

 

[Como Dog]

Blonde moment ... which FB is that? Crichton?

Thanks @ASSASSIN just saw it on page 2

 

[Apex Cedar]

So this is a CCCC thread ? Everyone’s carrying on like we just signed Crichton lol

 

[senshidog]

Meh, considering media have "confirmed" Ciraldo for weeks now, I'll wait until the club actually announce it before I get potentially excited.

If another rookie coach in Ciraldo fails though, the fans will be far less forgiving I reckon.

Hopefully we opt for:
Head Coach - Cameron Ciraldo
Asst Coach - Mick Potter
Asst Coach - Shane Flanagan
Asst Coach - Steve Turner

Get some good staff who are experienced to work alongside Ciraldo so he can't fail.

 

[B-Train]

The main thing is that he has to have great assistants and the best strength and conditioning team around him. That's something that's been a huge issue for years. I'm confident Gus will finally address it. Keeping Potter around will be a good start.

At least we can be confident with Ciraldo that we'll be defensively sound and a fitter team..
