Umm...... gee I hate to tell you but...Well if we are talking Nicks does a lot of things all our coaches would never have done, well none of our other coaches would have let Murphy get past 10 games.

He came into a broken club and pulled the place back together.Im not sure how you think his team first mantra is anything special. Its literally a cut and paste job of every other afl coach. Its a cliche. Its not special.
The right playing group aren't that bad but carrying the same 3-4 players each week doesn't give you the best chance of winning does it.So the playing group aren't that bad. Nick just can't get them up to playing consistent,winning football.
Has he pulled the place together? Given what's happened with Rachele, i don't think he's changed the culture at all. Still a boys club.He came into a broken club and pulled the place back together.
Attack his coaching all you want, but don't play the man.
I'm sure whatever Nicks said to Josh privately was fine.... I mean he hasn't spat it and left has he ??Has he pulled the place together? Given what's happened with Rachele, i don't think he's changed the culture at all. Still a boys club.
Look at how Hawthorn handle ginnivan... Backed him in publicly, probably told him to cool his head privately.
Au contraire
Given that laird took some kick ins and kicked it directly to the opposition, and his continued free pass in the game. We all saw his soft contests, quite clear Nicks doesn't uphold standards to his favourites.I'm sure whatever Nicks said to Josh privately was fine.... I mean he hasn't spat it and left has he ??
I'm more concerned about what Laird said
You think this club is together? It's just as broken as it was before with the same people and the same problems. Only difference is we have a spoon now and being a trash club is more ingrained and expectedHe came into a broken club and pulled the place back together.

You mean the last game of the year ??Given that laird took some kick ins and kicked it directly to the opposition, and his continued free pass in the game. We all saw his soft contests, quite clear Nicks doesn't uphold standards to his favourites.

Oh god. This shit again.He came into a broken club and pulled the place back together.
Hearing Tredrea on 5AA on Monday and mentions of Carr being involved in the Lukocious deal/Hinkley considering 'walking away' makes it pretty clear that Hinkley is gone.
Meanwhile we're all in on 6th year lucky for Nicksy.
The evidence of this is………….He came into a broken club and pulled the place back together.

You may find the Rachele episode could be the making of him .....much like the dressing down Ablett Jnr got from his leadership groupThe evidence of this is………….
I see a coach who refuses to take responsibility for poor performances and decisions and constantly blames the players.
Was he putting the team first when he consistently let Rachelle be humiliated, including by Rory Laird????
The best/only way to fix a club is success, he doesn’t have the ability to help the team achieve this.
Was it done publicly on a consistent basis?You may find the Rachele episode could be the making of him .....much like the dressing down Ablett Jnr got from his leadership group
Went from coasting on talent, to knuckling down and adding work ethic .....thus allowing Ablett to maximise his talent
I feel this could be a similar line in the sand with Rachele ....there's definitely a bigger picture at play here
