Radio: Phil Smyth Resigns from Adelaide 36ers

Anon
"Whay would you not want to a team based around those players, coach by Phil, next year."

Cos only one player changed during the season, and we missed the finals, and to miss the finals in the NBL is an embarasment considering how many teams get in compared to who missed out.

Help Mal,

"Why would a decent coach that wants to coach in the NBL come and lay down all his plans when the current coach (that will properly get the job) is still able to apply."

That's not how I understand it. According to Hemmerling the best person for the job will get the job. This means if anyone else other than PS think they are better suited for the job and have better qualifications then they have an advantage over PS and should apply. This way PS can still apply but at the same time you are leaving your options open by seeing what other interest you get. If PS turns out to be the best applicant, then the club is getting the best that they can get. The quality of the coach that will be appointed will be dependent on the quality of the applicants.

I hope they don't just rely on applicants coming forward and that the club actually pursue the ones of interest to themselves. I would also like them to make an active and in depth search overseas as well. You need to fight for what you want, not just wait for it to come to you.

Dana - this isn't a decision at all, it is simply a let's wait an see.

The Sixers need to be more proactive than this 'see who applies approach'.

I can see a lot of potential candidates for the coaching job been put off by this - are the Sixers serious about a new coach?

Can the Sixers management seriously look at recruiting a new coach if they don't know who what Phil is going to do?

Are the sixers even going to try and recruit, or they just going to see who applies?

This announcement has turned out be a non-event and means little, and I am surpised people are applauding it.
