Simple because he is Australia's GOAT when it comes to coaching, tell me why he isn't without telling me he whinges and sooks to a ref coz that doesn't mean shit, if that discredits him the Lebron isn't a good baskballer with the amount he whinges.

Melbourne fans might not have such happy memories of his coaching
As for the Boomers program, those appointments seem to be as political as ever so I guess it's dependent on whether Trev is mates with the right people.

gleesons time in Townsville albeit not winning a chip was some of his best coaching, he had to recruit good players to a town that's hard to recruit too, he had a low budget, he had a club that was falling to pieces around him from management side and he still put very competitive teams on the floor that played hard, he is an all time coach but most keyboard warriors don't like him because he is always in the Refs ear...... I read some off the comments of previous threads and piss myself laughing at people that can't appreciate someones accolades.
The OP is a moron and lacks credibility with atrocious spelling.
Because he resigned prior to the World Cup and doesn't want to be involved

Bevo for nbl Australia would be good since he doesn't have a club side.
Once again, numerous NBA players on the Boomers roster can't stand him.
2016 he was just there for a holiday in RIO

Facts about the nba guys not liking him.
Flex won't work on the international stage.
He was sacked after rio, didn’t "resign"

Need a Euro-ball expert on that bench in Tokyo
Coach Liam Flynn would be the best for that role. Very highly respected in Europe and intimate knowledge of all the high end Xs and Os.
Yeah, Trev's a flog. The sad thing is he would have won us a medal at the WC.
I'm not sold on Brown, but will wait and see what he produces. Just so glad Lemonass and all his sycophantic fanbois are gone.
I reckon Brown's first test will be to see if he can actually get the full squad available for Tokyo, rather than just his mates.
I have low expectations for Tokyo.
Boomers will finish outside top 4.

How has Billy Beaver wiggled his way into the Aussie coaching role? He's proved nothing at Sydney and looks and carries on like a flog. Was piss poor in the finals series and would have been embarrassed had the series gone further. Is coaching in a second tier (rate) league overseas seen as carrying more weight than coaching in the NBL?
Aussies for Aussie teams I reckon and the Seppos can watch on.

I have low expectations for Tokyo.Yep. The one thing that always gets brought up about the Boomers is the continuity and familiarity with each other. Throwing that out a month before the Olympics will be a disaster.
Boomers will finish outside top 4.
