Kingsley and spend the money to get the best around him. Clarko isn't enough to turn this club around. We need a team of elite coaches and managers.

It's impossible to know exactly what happened, but if we lost out on Ross because the board is living in a fantasy world where they believed they could get Clarko to change his mind....I'm actually at a loss for words.
Funnily enough, if Clarko is saying he wants to return to coaching in 2023 it almost makes me feel like we are still a chance. It means he definitely still wants to coach and if, as reported earlier, he rates the Carlton list then he may eventually not want to pass up the opportunity.
Maybe we’ll end up with an experienced (assistant) coach like the Pies did.
Only a subtle difference between the two.............
Still holding out hope that Pyke can be pried from Sydney but his name doesn't even seem to be part of the conversation.

The Club really needs to give-up on Clarko now. It was already starting to lose some of its appeal - the feeling of desperation to get him. It's not a good look for the Club and I don't think it sends a good message to the players. My feeling is we put all our eggs in that basket and it didn't pay off. We need to act like we're still in control...

Our No.1 priority is to improve on-field performance.
He's said no. Twice. He's being paid 900k to take a year off and do whatever the hell he likes, after 17 years at Hawthorn. He'd be crazy not to take the opportunity. No doubt his wife is of the same opinion.

Totally agree.
I wanna see what sayers can do. I’m hopeful.
But if it doesn’t work out again not sure what happens next....
I'll still be upset that I'm not living in the parallel universe where Ross Lyon is coach and we're even more explosive.

I am hearing good things re Kingsley and only just realised he has been coaching (at the assistant level) for 14 years (?) so very similar to McCrae in terms of experience.
I think he would be a better option than the experienced AFL coaches left in the process . I am sure the club can spin it we were after the best experienced coach.

gonna be a worry if he comes on-board only to later say "in hindsight, I probably wasn't in the right place to have agreed to the role" - a la greg chappell.....

These niche mark bets are always small pools.
$20 could move a price down such is the size of the pool.

As long as we don't go digging too hard, e.g. Grant Thomas - yikes!
What a mess - we should have just pushed hard on Ross and be done with it.
Sayers can say that he made the call and that's that!
Over and done with - next!
