How do you feel towards Dimma on the eve of the 2024 season, having regard to the way he left and the subsequent poaching of staff?

What about the old sausages vs new toys comments?

 

[Muddiemoose]

Not overly fussed
He’s got his new job and doing everything he can to succeed at it as he should and we as a club have moved on as well

 

[sante]

No animosity against him at all. Actually have a bit of interest in how the Suns travel this year under him.

He’ll always be a Richmond man

 

[sante]

How has he screwed us over by the way? Was it back to back flags?

 

[biaseddustyfan]

strongly positive but don't want him back

 

[cairo tiger]

cant stand him now sorry rooted on his wife took the money and ran huge downfall of a man

 

[tunksy]

super positive. but dont want him back. it was clear his time was up and I'm glad he and the club addressed it rather than let it drag out.

very interested in watching the suns this year. which is why the afl is paying him

 

[Lsta062]

I voted for strongly positive, but I don’t want him back. I think he’s ran his course with us.

I think most people would feel this way, strange it wasn’t an option.

 

[tiger_tough]

Blokes starting to get on my nerves and he's going to give me the shits all the way up until he retires (permanently this time), then I'll look back fondly of him I think.

 

[Karp3_dm]

Been learning my spiritual side a bunch
Accept and move on
Be present
Namaste bitches

This poaching of Richmond’ stalwarts has began to piss me orf , screw u dimma

 

[smasha]

Cooked one too many sausages but positive of what he brought to Tigerland.
Longest serving coach,3 flags.

 

[GN272]

Good luck to the bloke - wish him all the best ....

 

[SunshineBoy]

If we’d sacked him I would feel differently but he bailed on us and poached staff he can GAGF

 

[TigerImposter]

Never thought much of him from day dot and the feelings never changed. Showed his true colours in 2020 and totally derailed afterwards which affected our team and culture which Benny and Peggy built. He was unofficially sacked in the end as resignation was a nice appearance thing which looked fake and sad in the end. Then he went on his usual cunning and dirty ways soon as he joined the Suns.
Respect him that he was the Puppet coach in our three flags , but wasn’t the driving force to our culture which led to success.
I don’t want him to succeed at The Suns and if Dusty goes next year it will be zero respect from me for him.

 

[Foley#41]

It was over before he left.
But the dude coached us to three flags.
No amount of pukey Suns apparel can erase that.

 

[Tenacious T]

Utmost respect and can’t thank him enough.
Yeah, departure and sudden appointment at GC was disappointing but for anyone to say flags would’ve been won without him is total frogshit.

We move on but he deserves total respect.

 

[Wooden Robot]

Not fussed.
It's a business and people change jobs every year in the AFL.
I never really liked him as a personality (and certainly didn't like him in his playing days), but grateful for what he helped us achieve.
But he'd run his race long before he left.
Good luck to him.
We couldn't beat the Suns with him the last few years, so now we have a shot!!

Delivered the chocolates. In spades.
His ability to galvanise the playing group to be their very best was ground breaking. He is a student of the game and worked his butt off to get an edge. The coaching group were one and united behind his leadership.
His weekly stories and inspirational anecdotes coupled with his own vulnerability led the group to achieve magnificent rewards. We all shared in that and couldn’t have done it without him.
Now he’s gone, it’s great that he’s gone cos it allows the Tiges to refresh and grow again. His tenure is over and he’s just the coach of GCS. I don’t wish him any ill will but hope we belt them.

Thanks for the insight Cousin Larry

You need my insight Mr Robot.
Otherwise you might be influenced by that clown a few posts above yours. Many hated Dimma right from the start and he proved them wrong and it burns in their guts.
How can people live with such hate after the pure joy we lived thru?
It’s a simple credit where it’s due story, he delivered 3 flags. He was a great coach for us. That’s all I’m saying.

 

[Coach_Required]

I'm fine, I was happy he pulled the pin when he did, we needed change. We won 3 flags under him so I'm grateful for that, however as long as he isn't disrespectful to our club going forward as he is prone to say some dumb shit without thinking.

 

[prodigy]

For me, it's whatever. I don't really care what he does, I'm just focusing on our exciting new regime.
