I wouldn’t be averse to that but the fact is we just re-signed Nicks to two years. We aren’t likely to sack him now, therefore my preference would be to get good people in there (better than what we currently have) and add Balme to the mix (he seems keen). Personally, I’d like Buckley to be our coach. But that’s unlikely given we just re-signed Nicks.There are always premiership coaches coming through.
You dont stick with a failure because you cant see the forest for the trees
Nicks had quality assistants and we finished 1 kick from finals (2023)
Not sure Nicks would (internally) appreciate a Balme - he seems wedded to Kelly
My thought process is we get rid of Nicks - tighten our assistant groups and appoint someone Balme can mentor as long as he can.
Its the same process as yours but without Nicks
This sounds more like hope than any thing. Just on Hardwick - he at least had previous finals appearances to be judged on
