Yeah but who would want to go to Norf? Joel Hamling maybe?I find it bizarre they let McKay go and didnt replace him. KP stocks are awful.
This was a trade period where SavRat went for p25. KPDs are rare atm.

The one who wasn’t getting bags kicked on him for the past few yearsI dunno, which one got six kicked on him yesterday?
I'm not flat out disagreeing with you but if what you said was the full story then how do you explain Buckley out, McRae in and shazam???
I think all elite sport is a matter of fractions of a percent. The right coach for the right group of players at the right time can be the difference between missing finals and a premiership. Incredible but I think the facts back this up.
Can't tell if this is your genuine opinion or you're sarcastically ridiculing the premise of this thread.2008 it was hardwick and viney that made the premiership winning moves on grandfinal day
2009-11 a few injuries and hawks were hopeless
2012 got shown up by a fairly average Swans side
2013 lucky freo couldn't kick straight
14-15, dominance, but surely anyone could've got those results with that talent
16 onwards he spent too long trying to stop a drop, rather than coaching for the future. Gameplan wasn't working and refused to make changes (sign of a not so good coach)

Clarkson had a better list than Buckley and Mcrae and won many premierships reflecting that.I'm not flat out disagreeing with you but if what you said was the full story then how do you explain Buckley out, McRae in and shazam???

Yeah, this is what I came here to say. That flag was absolutely Clarkson's flag, and it was a massive achievement.
Because Hawthorn went on to win a three-peat five years later, people forget just how massive an upset that was (barring the Geelong supporters who were there like I was ). Geelong started that game as massive favourites, and just kept pinging it into the forward line like flies going into a spiderweb.
The plans around corralling Ablett Jr and Steve Johnson were genius, too. Two of the most damaging footballers of their time had 68 touches between them, and somehow we still lost.
The rushed behinds were absolute genius. Not only did they take the sting out of our defensive pressure, they also unsettled us because it wasn't pretty.
People like Malthouse and Lyon saw, what happened, and that Grand Final changed football forever.
If you've only started watching footy in the last 15 years, I cannot tell you how much the sport changed in the five years around that era.
It only goes to prove that you can be a good coach even with ordinary players, but if you don't have great players you won't become a great coach! Fans need to remember that behind every one of these super fit finely tuned athletes is a wrathful coach with a hair trigger temper showing them all what temporary insanity is all about. Clarko flies off the handle all the time and maybe his "supercoach" powers have come and gone?
Never seen a crap list win a flag. Coaches are only as good as the players they coach.
You misspelt David Bowie.Genius has a ceiling, and is temporary. With one astounding exception ... Mark E Smith!
Just a whole bunch of alternative facts.Can't tell if this is your genuine opinion or you're sarcastically ridiculing the premise of this thread.
good point.Put it this way, two of the top/senior players at his disposal are Jy Simpkin and Luke McDonald.
Would these players get a game at your club? There's only so much you can polish a turd lol
