Richmond’s next senior coach

[Madtiger2006]

We aren’t a struggling team getting smashed. We just need minor change

 

[ohhhBigMalcho]

im invested in this guy, taking me on a journey mini

 

[Vassp]

Give mini the gig if we keep playing well.

Agree, I used to get frustrated with Jack being dropped even after a decent game. I heard from a very reliable source that Saints are going hard for him and I think if Dimma was still coaching he would be gone.

Bombers I believe have shown interest as well. But, we should now have a permanent spot for him moving forward. Especially next year after Cotch retires.

Caretaker coaches never work out long term. Only one i can think of is Roos. Lots of dead cat bounce happens.

Leppa knows how to coach a back line that’s about it

He is currently head of strategy and forward line coach of the premiership favorites....

Rhys Shaw worked out alright. His 34% win rate was far superior to the strike rate any of Noble, Clarkson and Ratten could manage.

Under mini players are playing where they should be played .
Martin / Cotchin into the midfield and Baker forward were obvious but good moves .
Prestia , Nank also seem better players .
Kudo’s to Hardwick because on what’s been seen so far it appears the players had got sick of his voice .

Absolute kudos to Hardwick stepping away when he did the man is as Richmond a man as anyone. Loves the club and just wants success. 1.5 million (only really 500k as he will get another job next year) bucks he gave up meh….money is money.

How many caretaker coaches came thru a triple premiership dynasty V a failing. Basket case where coach has been sacked before whole joint is tipped upside down ,,, awww I didn’t fink of dat

Miniiiiiiiiii miniiiiiiiiiii miniiiiiiiiii miniiiiiiiiii miniiiiiiiiiiiii miniiiiiiiiiii

Mini has Been preparing for this for 3 years when he was told he was the man

The club see him as a carbon copy of mcrae

The next coach was always going to be mini or fly

He does look to have similar cool demeanor to McRae , quite a bit diff to the animated dimma

Gotta love the caretaker role, you only get one opportunity to trial someone in the job, anyone else hired is based off interviews and previous experience.

What would be the pass mark to seal Mini as the man? Finals would secure him the job for sure. 9-10th? Maybe. We started poorly this year, you could really just assess based on when he took over and at the end of the year if we have a winning record, that would probably be enough to seal it.

Interesting in after the game interviews . I think it was Rioli said ..he doesn’t expect much from us .. or has no expectations on the players .. something similar.
I’m thinking Dimma may have been straying from the philosophy of playing the game for enjoyment and Mini is bringing us back on track a bit.

Well if he does the process and comes out as the best candidate. Then good luck to him. Everyone deserves an opportunity to go for the job do they not?

I think what you meant to say is we just need a Mini change?

 

[living_in_syd]

Mini im no sold on yet. 3 games so far.

If we didnt play a million talls imwhen it was forecasted to rain versus port we may have got that win too that would have been a good start for him.

Mini needs to coach another 7-8 wins in the pre-finals season. That's quite the pressure test for a job interview if he manages this.
The person that I would like to see from 2024 season in a senior or head coaching position is Andrew Collins.

Hold back and go through the process. Do not repeat 'Unleash the Geisch' mistake.

Saige advice.
I'm with you.
If McQualter ticks all the boxes, he'll still get the job anyways, but no harm seeing what's out there.

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

How often are care takers successful. Not a lot.

Mini is not just a care-taker Coach that has been brought in to coach a hopeless rabble of a side, from out of the blue, like some have...and hope for the best!
Mini has some pedigree... has been an assistant Coach at a Club, with pedigree, that has won three GFs...
It's also not about his status as a coach...or whether Mini rates simply as a "care taker coach"...it's all about whether he can coach and get results!
I dare say the results from the last two games are a positive...and we have the rest of the footy season to watch both his and the side's progress whilst we make up our own minds!

your average dh doesn’t understand that , they think all caretakers are same , facts are 99% were asst during a basket case period where the coach was given the arse . This is called succession planning 101

 

[Ancient Tiger]

The players are clearly paying for Mini and they were NOT for Dimma at the end. Also Truck has got the backline back up and running as I see our improvement there has been marked in the last couple of weeks. Grimes is playing better. Balta is in career best form in the backline and is looking far more assured. Vlastuin was back to his best last night. It makes a huge difference to have a cohesive assured backline.
