As I've said before, not out of arrogance or knowing it all, we are not getting a new coach unless Richo fails in 2019 with his new assistants and the free agents and trades/pick we get.

Then, we will make a move, this is also when some very good coaches become available.

Richo....Lord Of The Losses!
He can coach valiant losses, almost squeaked by losses, gut wrenching losses, pathetic losses....but one thing is a fact he is the "specialist" at crafting a team into losses.
All Hail another season of Losses!

I need to be very clear....there is not a single player on the list that should not be shopped around if we can improve. Bundle a few together for picks or a better player. Seriously. Theres plenty of lads that we like and some are faithful servants and some are full of potential but when I look at...

He is no where near the actual radar of the club. We want a seasoned GF winner. If we cant get them I reckon we will go back to the stupid panel of doom and interview the top assistants.

But if it were possible, I reckon if was coach in 2018 we would have 8-9 wins right now, same team.

Nope. Theres no loophole in this contract. If Richo is fired in the first season of the contract he gets full compensation for 2019 and 25% for 2020. I'm not going to say I've seen the contract but I know who has and if he hadn't signed it he would have been let go mid season and caretaker coach was...

Ripe. The assistants last year were the cream on the top ensuring Richos dream of developing a top 4 team was on the precipice....but in the off season they made a pact to become c#nts and they and they alone are the reason we are losing this year. F@ck them all! They're all fired! It worked at Rich...

ouch. another media driven suspension. they get them off when it suits, they get their scapegoats when it suits. afl have to back it up now and start suspending any punch. and our game grows more vanilla. just a bunch of prima donna professionals turning up at the office soon. next it be red cards,...

Don't think Gaff is a chance...but Hannerbrey maybe. Few rumours floating around about him. Not sure if the Saints are keen, but IMO he would be a good pickup. Lol you are funny parkey. You hear something on the radio or read an article then post on here like you have inside information. I’d bet we...

We are all wasting our breath. This coach is staying.
He wasted his first year as coach because Scott Waters made a mess, but he still had a team of A grade/gun players - at least 6.
He produced rubbish then we watched careers end slowly and now he's chewing through our next generation.

We need Gold Coast to beat Brisbane and finish above us otherwise their compensation pick for losing Lynch will mean that we will end up with pick 4 But didnt you hear from the ITK ( who have eaten sh!t snd now gone silent) we're getting Sloane that's done. Gaff also done snd Lynch has been in secr...

Well, not flash. He showed absolutely no outside burst speed that he used to have. But least we forget the last time I saw that speed it was on highlight reels before the draft. He is a fighter and that's special so if he gets a game for the rest of the year maybe he will grow in confidence - he see...

That was quick! I hope someone read it! I thought you would flag it but not this late at night.

Well, I said my piece. It was true to the bone and I won't post about again so my agreement is kept.

I also publically state no part of my comments were about any current player or staff person.

My thoughts on David King are: Player Development Manager has 3-5 assistants and cohorts. They work tenaciously to ensure the player has the resources and assets required to develop professionally to optimum levels. King is a smart ass and certainly a rascal as a commentator but he played a vicious...

Looks like a long list but its 9 less than we have on staff now.

If there's a genius way to trade pick 3,4 or5 for pick 17- 20 plus a couple early second rounders I hope we do it. I see theres a few teams already taking trade and we know carlton would give up 1 for another good pick and AA like Kelly etc. I dont think pick 3-5 has that power but looking at picks ...

Wait a damn minute.....there's ANOTHER footy forum?

Richo ducks. Even when we cant win a season and he could give every young lad we have a run so gain invaluable experience he uses players that repeatedly underperform . The greatest coach in any sport ever.....Knute Rockne - he said if you can't get players to do exactly what you want them to do, yo...

But is it the coach? Would sacking him fix it? We just don't know. You dont know. That's horse turd. Hes lost more games than any coach almost in decades. He uses the " we dont have the games into the legs yet be patient approach". But when this asshole started he had 4 AA players and 4 g...

Longer has value. When he is playing his best he works amazing in a 2 ruck set up. But like Hickey either injury or confidence has caused him to suck. That said in best form Hickey is faster, he can jump more athletically ( meaning reach twist and bend) he can bend and scoop the ball, he can hand b...
