Has the Davis appointment been made by someone involved yet? e.g. Davis, Davis' manager or either club? Until we hear from one of these people it is just a rumour!!!!
Time for us to all sit back and chill for a week or so!
This time next week we, as supporters, will hopefully start to see what changes will be implemented next year from a coach(es) and players perspective. Assistant coaches who are being moved on will already know their fate (best for players...
I came looking for a rumour or three. Had a look, thought I had gone to a Powwa board, but no, alas, I was where I thought I might find a rumour. Guys, how about stopping putting crap on each other and get back to making these threads what they are meant to be.
We have twice landed ourselves "stars" who, when with us, were no longer shining. Carey and Gibbs. Yep, we got D Jarman but he didn't have the baggage of either of the other 2. We must get a high performing player, but we don't want one who is carrying any baggage that contains anything other...
Maybe we are all holding the wrong people to account. All but 2 of the Board members are AFL appointed. So the way I reason it, only the AFL can sack them!!! But will that happen? NO!!!! Why, because it is part of the AFL's plan to have an AFL comp where only VFL teams can win!!!! So who...
Oops, I left out the word "may" between "club" and "agree". Should have proofread it. I previously stated that once a board makes a majority decision, that publicly they all have to sing from the same song book. To do anything else at any time (even when the club is going well) is suicidal.
I read with interest what Bucks, Whateley and co had to say last night. They talked about ticks, question marks and crosses of each of our squad. They all believe not many ticks among them. There is an inference that the problem is more to do with drafting and recruiting by the way they made...
I am not sure how many on here have ever been on a Board or have held CEO/Secretary positions in sporting clubs. I am not happy where the club is currently but we have to be careful where to aim the arrows. The CEOs etc have to report to and be answerable to the Board. They can make...
What we need is another Messiah!! At least when Blighty came he came with a broom and got rid of some "big names" who many fans thought would be hanging around. He took a young team of basically nobodies and moulded them. The problem with this type of coach is, that like many people brought in...
If Cornes was given a go somewhere (not here!!) it would at least prove HOW LITTLE he knows about how to manage men and to achieve good results. At least his old man knew how to coach!!!
#22 seems to be at it again. Any 50/50 calls always go against us. Blues got a goal for a head high that was 50/50 and 2 mins later he at other end and penalises us as we about to mark. Best place for him is the Powa games!!
I read this morning that in Clarko's last 5 (or was it 7) years of coaching in AFL he has only had 1 year where he had more wins in the year than losses. Some are saying that maybe the game has gone past his abilities
Draw just out. We go to Gold Coast, Brisbane, Perth (once), Sydney (one) and Hobart. Have 6 games either Thursday night or Friday Night. And games at MCG!!! Not too bad
Like the umps in the Collingwood game at the G. They should all be sent to Specsavers. And then the AFL explanation that they just missed seeing the infringement. If they had awarded the deserved penalty, we would now be 10 and 9. Not 9 and 10.
I think most on here would love Hardwick if he wanted to coach us. He is the guy who Richmond wanted to sack after the team had not met the expectation of supporters after more years than Nicks has been at our club! He was a no good coach who somehow got Richmond 3 flags!!!! As I have said...
Have been sitting here for years reading the views of the masses (according to those on here anyway). What concerns me is negativity. It is like "we need another hospital but not in my backyard" syndrome. Was looking at the names of the coaches of the 18 clubs yesterday and in my view, I prefer...
Maybe we need to look at the past. Remember Diesel Williams going to court and getting an injunction? Then fight like hell that the VFL are making sure that it will never be a true AFL!!!
The presser I just listened to on here must be different to what you had. In the one I listened to Nicks said they took the decision out of Tom's hands. They made it for him
We know that GWS are after a coach, Nth Melbourne probably will be after one, Essendon could be after one and Kern's position is not certain at present. If 3 or more clubs are after coaches this year, I would rather see Nick's stay than probably ending up with pick 3 or 4 of what is available...
The bigger question is, if Nick's is given his marching orders, who is out there to replace him that can be GUARANTEED to get us better results. Forget about Clarkson and Lyons, they will not come here. Not many others out there and I think that there will be a few more in danger this year than...
Please correct me if I am wrong. Didn't it take first time coaches Clarkson and Hardwick quite a number of years to win their first flags as coaches? Also, I seem to recall that both Clubs (Hawthorn and Richmond) more than once before they won their flags considered giving them the bullet. They...
Maybe, just maybe, the Club looks at what gets posted here. They could be afraid of people with axes to grind (and these people have no idea of what an axe is, and if they did, would not know how to grind it). Our supporters have a go at the Power supporters for the way they carry on. We should...
I like what we have done. If my memory serves me right there were people who did not want to back in either Clarkson or Hardwick before they got their respective clubs to win their grand finals. They took a while to get there but what a win it was for those 2 clubs. Well done to the club as it...
Guys, isn't it time to move forward. Tex has done the crime, now doing the time. Whether he plays again for us is up to the club, it's players and staff, and Tex himself. WE are only adding to the problem. Let's just learn to love and respect each other and move forward. The draft will be here...
