Can Robert Harvey coach?

[Markfs]

We need to pick ourselves up and go forward. I know a lot of us will be posting about buckley's coaching for the next year or so, but we really need to put some work into Rob Harvey.

So for the question, the short answer is no. He doesnt seem to have a plan. He's going to "free the boys" up like all caretaker coaches do.....rhyce shaw ...brendan bolton...david teague...but it will all end in shambles by season's end.

Can he coach? Yes.
Can he coach well enough? No.

Needs to win the 2021 flag to get the job.

worth a 12 mth contract on that basis

 

[Mateyman]

Has he been in charge of our midfield this year?

 

[whiskeytown]

Herein lies the problem... if Harvey thinks he’s a chance at the senior job, we won’t see him play as many kids as the club should do at this point.

Hopefully Wright is in charge of team selection and Harvey just in charge of match day manoeuvres

No.
Defence.

Haha imagine being a prospective coach and reading we already having a thread questioning whether the care taker coach can coach. A bloke we know will be out of the chair in a few months time.

Bugger me the Collingwood coach role is a hot potato

Nah he will follow the direction that’s already set, the kids will still get games

 

[TW Sherrin]

Really has it been any different, it’s always been a hot potato

 

[left at home]

Well we will find out soon enough

 

[TradeDraft]

NO

He just be going Sidways IF we kept him on as Head Coach past this Season.

He been there for 8 or so Years

 

[Mooresome]

God help us

 

[gouki88]

He's been a long-term assistant which no team has ever gone with. Even his own playing club, where he is a top 5 guy all time. He's emblematic of the old, defensive gameplan which we all hope is left in the past.

I think one of the main reasons Bucks is less effective is that he's been around the group too long. Replacing him with his longest-tenured assistant isn't going to help that

If Robert Harvey is the next coach of the club ill personally burn down the Westpac centre myself.

 

[danielnajdek]

Would be kinda funny if he did get the job to see all the melts after everyone wanted Bucks out.

But he wont get the job because he is no good.

 

[Markfs]

Harvs has done all the coaching accreditation.... he's primed and ready t

You might have a hard time finding it...

I’ve saved your post for future reference.

 

[swoop42]

I doubt Harvey is a realistic chance even if our performances improve.

Beware the dead cat bounce.

Has Harvey applied elsewhere to be a senior coach and was rejected during his time at Collingwood?

 

[Markfs]

we need to work together on this to make sure Harvey is sent on his way... sando too... never liked that guy.

Didn’t he apply for the Saints job?

Was thinking the same may have but not sure.

Yep, Carlton and Saints are two that come to mind.
