CibbuanoRestructure for Roos
September 13th 2006 06:02
Kangaroos chief executive Geoff Walsh has overseen a restructure of the club's Football Department following an internal review of the department's operations.
The restructure will see assistant coach Donald McDonald elevated to Performance Manager and spokesman for the department, and former Football Manager Tim Harrington will now take on the newly created post of List Manager.
As Performance Manager, McDonald will be in charge of the performance of the department and manage day-to-day operations.
He along with coach Dean Laidely will be the spokesman for the department.
Meanwhile Harrington as List Manager will manage the club's TPP structure, list profile, salary cap and oversee the recruiting department.
In past seasons Player Welfare Manager Danny Daly has also undertaken the role of forward scouting. He will now assume a role as Opposition Coach who will analyse the set-up of opponents as well as other sports industries.
Development Coach Neil Connell, who was appointed 12 months ago and works with the one-to-three year players, will now be responsible for the Player Welfare program as well.
Walsh said the club would also be redefining its strength and conditioning areas using a panel of sport scientists to design the program, following Laidley's admission the Roos went in underdone for the 2006 season.
McDonald's move from assitant coach means the Roos now have a vacancy, however the club is yet to determine whether it will employ a full-time assitant or a couple of part-time specialist coaches.
Darren Crocker and Darren Bewick will continue in their roles as assistant coaches with the Kangaroos in 2007
