That will be as alternate as it gets from us.

It's one of the reasons why we started talking a month or so ago. It is good to allay all the speculation.

Mick is on the record as saying that he would like this to be his last job, so hopefully we can get back up the ladder again and he can coach for as long as he wants to.

They (the players) put the show on and they should be well paid, but the league needs to adequately compensate our wages bill.

You can't do anything about it, it's just a question of keeping an eye on him and see where he ends up in next year's draft.
