Coach Assistant coaches 2025 - Blake Caracella Rejoins Richmond

[Dragonss]

Who else are we getting is the question. We need to be net positive in terms of who we get into the coaching and development ranks. We can't be just replacing people at the moment, after we got rid of Dimma and reinstatement of higher soft cap surely we have more money for more support staff. An influx of young talent requires great development to help them get the best out of themselves.

Lambo has young family , footy ain’t a 9-5 job , he’s exploring what else he can do , sounds like already got something in mind , he may be back in footy reckon he has much too offer

Yes I agree, such a great dude to have around the club, others saying maric going too, it’s a shame to lose both these 2 legends along with a bunch of players.

I’m all for the regen but we need to keep some good heads around the club

FMD everyone leaving, is it just simply changing of the guard or is yze the reason?

Bit of both I reckon, there’s been murmurs of a riff in the coaching group for a while now

Someone described it as “may have the title senior coach but isn’t seen as senior coach”

Rob Gell? The weather presenter?
Abbey's surname is Gelmi

Fun fact, she's the grand daughter of Herb Elliott!

I think the 80's onwards is a bit of a different era. From there I agree Good players rarely (but not never) make good coaches.

So if we are just looking at the top 4 on your list:

Paul Roos, Chocco and Blighty, all can be viewed in two ways:
Positive - Always had teams contending (for the most part) and got the most out of thier lists
Negative - They all only won one flag each (not saying they are easy) with teams that where contending for long periods of time, so perhaps should have won more. So maybe they under-achieved.

Blighty's teams sh@t the bed in multiple GF's
Chocco's teams sh@t the bed in multiple Prelims
Roos teams were a free kick (to either Judd or Sampi) away from not winning anything

I personally think Paul Roos was massively overrated as a coach

Walls is just a c0ckhe@d , so I don't care about how good he may have been, fair to say his flags were bought by brown paper bags in the old carlton days, not his coaching

Blight coached two flags with a good side, but were massive under dogs in both 97-98.

After finishing last, we need to make changes and get new ideas

Got lucky that Wayne Carey woke up and decided he wanted to spray the ball everywhere.

same scoring shots and lost by 35 points. Jarman was the big difference.

Bit like Dimma a tough nut always gave you and reliable. One of the unsung heroes under the star players.

Hang on I’ll ask him

I don't remember either but he once had 35 and 3 Goals in a 53 point win and didn't get a single Brownlow Vote. https://afltables.com/afl/stats/games/2002/031320020421.html
