Hardwick quits

[tony__montana]

End of an amazing era- thanks Dimma for the 3 incredible flags. Hope he sees out the year which I think he will. I think the timing is right but would be lying if I said I wasn’t concerned that losing Peggy, Dimma and maybe Gale within 12 months could send us back to the dark ages. Let’s hope this galvanises rhe playing group for one last hurrah this year to send him out on a high

 

[SunshineBoy]

Thanks for the memories

 

[tugga]

You just know they will give it to Steve morris.

 

[dirtybizza]

Herald Sun saying he will coach this weekend

and so it begins

 

[Daka]

I’m not sure leppa is interested in a senior gig

Didn’t go for GWS, chose to pies assistant over the blues job


Sent from my iPhone using BigFooty.com

GWS was not as attractive as Richmond.

 

[SleepingGiant]

Wow. April fools?

Would have loved for him to see out a couple years of rebuilding. What an absolute legend of our club. Who would have thought he would have achieved what he did. An absolute colossus of the game to come to this club and turn it around.

 

[tugga]

I'd say rutten and teaue go for the job, but in the running are grigg and Newman. Could be a very different looking coaching team next year too

Adem Yze might be a candidate

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

You just know they will give it to Steve morris.

Man, if his coaching style is anything like the way he played we’d play a great kamikaze game style!

 

[Tackle Bag]

Doesn’t take long. I’m hearing horrible rumours about why he’s going. People can be shit

 

[sandeano]

You just know they will give it to Steve morris.

Hello Jade the blade.

 

[SleepingGiant]

What a legend. I hope he leaves satisfied and on good terms with all at the club.

Leppa to return?

Ohhhh me like.

 

["The Roar Is Back"]

Timing is strange. Hope it isn’t health related .

 

[SunshineBoy]

Wow, effective immediately or end of season?

He’s not Gilligan

 

[Rubber Hips]

Hardwick quitting makes me sad


he has given the club everything…it seems so sudden to quit mid season


thanks Dimma

Doesn’t take long. I’m hearing horrible rumours about why he’s going. People can be s**t

is his missus leaving the club too?

 

[Charlie Pannam]

Not true. Regular finalists with one bad year.

Pies won it in 2010, runner up in 2011 under Malthouse.

Buckley walked into a job with the best resources and facilities in the competition and a ready to go team.

Big no for me

 

[SleepingGiant]

Doesn’t take long. I’m hearing horrible rumours about why he’s going. People can be s**t

PM me?

 

[biaseddustyfan]

He won't because it is purely bigfooty paranoia.

If he read that stuff on here, he would laugh.

you're completely wrong and he will definitely talk about it before too long though not in his retirement speech

 

[TiggerMan22]

Caro in the Age saying effective immediately.

That would hurt. Why the **** do we never get to send of our legends. Richo all over again.

 

[The Mighty]

is his missus leaving the club too?

She #eco'd in 2020
