Which round did Brisbane finish 15th?Last to 6th vs 15th to GF. Hmmm which is a greater achievement and deserves the higher accolades

Congrats to Fagan. I would have picked Scott or Mitchell but Fagan is definitely worthy.
Bit of a nothing award given Clarko never won one.

Sorry fixed it. Got confused with 2018 final position. The correct position this was 14th

Or maybe it was Fagan behind the scenes all along…

It’s not the most improved award, it’s the coaches award as voted for by all of the other coaches.
The amount of disrespect for Fagan in here is bog average. The lions had a horrific injury list, backs against the wall after just missing out last year and are now in another granny.
Easily a deserving winner of the award.

Fagan wasn't a coach at Hawthorn, so not likely.

I realise that but whichever coaches voted for Fagan to be coach of the year won't look too clever if Brisbane loses another GF.
If Brisbane wins the GF you could argue that he was improved his team from last year but if they lose again they are no better.

After a 0-5 start champ. Fagan has never achieved that. Nothing against Fages he's a great bloke and a good coach but clearly Scott and Mitchell coached better this year with inferior lists.Last to 6th vs 14th to GF. Hmmm which is a greater achievement and deserves the higher accolades

Seems a bit paradoxical to discredit the award because multi-premiership winning coaches haven't won it before while also making the case that a coach whose team is out of the finals race deserves it ahead of the two coaches actually playing off for a premiership on Saturday.
Fages is a great coach and well deserving. Lions were only half a game and % ahead of Hawthorn at round 9. A similar though slightly less dramatic run home to make finals than Hawthorn, but ultimately Fages got his team through to the big dance where Mitchell didn't.

FTFY
I didnt realise it was a coaches vote.
So it is a relationship/popularity vote amongst the 18 head coaches..
Fair enough Fages wins it then, he seems like a ripping bloke.
And Clarko + Scott + (seemingly) Mitch seem to have some rough relations around the league for various reasons.

Voted by the other coaches so pretty hard to argue with the format.
Personally thought Mitchell should’ve won but really like Fages and very happy for him - Sam’s time will come.
Also sacrilege for a Hawks fan but have only come to appreciate in the last 2-3 years what an outstanding coach Chris Scott is, hard to believe he’s never won it. His tactical preparation and game day coaching against us at Kardinia this year was brilliant.

Are the full votes published anywhere?
What is the format. Fox Sports reported
Fagan was the recipient of 272 votes to beat fellow Grand Final coach John Longmire from the Sydney Swans on 209 votes with Hawthorn’s Sam Mitchell third on 161.
So do they 3-2-1 on Grand Final week like they were asked on AFL
360, or 3-2-1 after the end of each round?
How it wasn't Mitchell is beyond me and I have much dislike for Hawthorn

Clarko wins Grand Finals so lets see.
Coaches are clearly anti Hawthorn

18 coaches x 6 votes is 114 a round. 25 rounds makes it a total of 2850 votes. So Fagan got just under 10% which would seem about right
