    You want people to suggest a serious coach and then you come out and just say no. Surely you can give an explanation.

    Thanks Muphy's Lore - you actually made me giggle when I read your post. A little bit of laughter therapy never goes astray.

    Who cares? Andrew Bolt can co-coach with Gore Vidal

    Stuart Dew?

    David King is extremely astute. Highly unlikely though as he currently isn't in club land so perhaps he isn't interested in coaching.
    More of an In Bruges guy?

    Ben Dixon. We'd go hard for Michael Voss, but end up with Ben's Dixon's tantrum throwing and pubescent voice cracking.

    Yah team!

    I actually heard a whisper re: Dew this morning. No at King. I have NFI what he's talking about sometimes. When i can understand him he's either on the mark or on Mars. The kids would end up in the foetal position in the corner with tinfoil hats.

    Sure did but we had some very poor drafting in his time for which we are paying for.

    I might be in the Maple camp.

    I just think the transition post Macca maybe easier with Maple because he was implementing Macca grand plan at the development level and may keep the same path with some of his own tweaks but I would think he may be on better terms with the players.

    I think he loves the club and he has finals (be it at a lower level) experience.

    I think Rocket and me returning as a package is the way to go.

    Re: Who should we get as our new coach?

    I'm pretty shattered about McCartney being sacked. I think it is the wrong decision, I also didn't want Rocket to be sacked, but happily supported the new coach.

    What I don't plan on doing is completely dropping my bundle because a coach I liked has been sacked - and going on to deride the new coach at every opportunity available.

    Whoever it is (aside from James Hird!) gets my support. I just hope it is a strong character who wants to build the club for sustained success - which is the path we've put 3 years into already - rather than trying to reach for a short term 10 wins because of impatient supporters demanding linear W/L improvement.
