Coaching Career
In 2004, Jarman returned to his first club North Adelaide as senior coach. They had finished at the bottom of the ladder in 2003, but in his first year in charge, Jarman coached the Roosters to their first finals campaign in seven years. Under Jarman's coaching the Roosters showed continual improvement, finishing 5th in 2004, 4th in 2005, 3rd in 2006, 2nd in 2007 than 7th in 2008. On the 10 September 2008 Andrew Jarman was sacked as coach of North Adelaide following the clubs fall from 2nd to 7th in one season.
In October 2008, Jarman was appointed senior coach of Perth in the Western Australian Football League (WAFL), replacing Simon Eastaugh. It was hoped that Jarman would be able to repeat his efforts in lifting a struggling team into finals contention. Despite a respectable finish, Perth failed to make the finals in their first season with Jarman as senior coach. After a last place finish in 2010 and on the verge of being dismissed, Jarman returned to South Australia where he now works on radio.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“He was at a starting point which makes many a mans career a fine subject for betting, if there were any gentlemen given to that amusement who could appreciate the complicated probabilities of an arduous purpose, with all the possible thwartings and furtherings of circumstance, all the niceties of inward balance, by which a man swings and makes his point or else is carried headlong.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
