Scott Gullan analyses every coach’s pressure rating ahead of the 2023 season
I particularly enjoyed reading these two:
PRESSURE RATING: IN THE FURNACE
ADAM SIMPSON (West Coast)
We know Western Australia likes to do things in their own way and create their own little country over there but we’re pretty sure COVID is no longer a big deal. Why we bring this up is because the West Coast Eagles have whined and moaned about the pandemic for a couple of years and used it as an excuse for being total rubbish. Premiership coach Simmo won just two games, let’s repeat that, TWO games in 2022. Last time we checked they weren’t an expansion team just finding their feet. The coach may have a couple more years on his contract but you can’t be serving that tripe up again.
PRESSURE RATING: ICE COOL
JUSTIN LONGMUIR (Fremantle)
Won a final in his third season and is on the fast track to being a coaching genius. Gets Luke Jackson as a new play thing and would be thinking top four if they get Fyfe fit.
