Assistant - adelaide lightning

Assistant - Aus U/17s team

Assistant - Canberra Capitals

Head coach - in the SA ABA level league

Head coach & assistant - various SA state teams

Reasonable resume. Still a rookie WNBL head coach though, taking over from a legend of the game in Bernie.

Simon will do a great job. He is very thorough in detail. Certainly difficult atmosphere to be walking into, particularly as a rookie HC but if given a fair go by the Spirit supporters, no doubt he can deliver some great performances.

Another coach with a lot of "titles" but no substance. Hasn't even coached at SEABL level. This has disaster written all over it.

He might have a steep learning curve but if it means no Harrowers involved anymore it's still a big step in the right direction.

Bernie won 2 of the last 3 championships and previous posting clown has no idea. The board must have some dumb friends or there posting themselves.

If nothing else, he might lead the league in gossip spread.

Yeah still kinda hard to picture kicking out a coach with Bernie's record and resume for a rookie head coach.

Money/control written all over it.

Could also lead the league in promised court time unfulfilled.
