Assistant coaches for 2018
I just noticed in the press, Collingwood have poached the senior assistant from West Coast (Justin Longmuir).
I think it is time for a revamp of our coaches, and I don't mean just a shuffle like this year, which seemingly didn't work.
Who should go, should we bring in a new senior person?

Some new people, with some new ideas. No need to swing the axe, but fresh blood is needed.

They are doing what Richmond did last year. They replaced all the assistants and kept Hardwick, Collingwood have signed Buckley for two more years so all the assistants go.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Funny isn't it , first you blame the players then you blame middle management but it's the head that's rotted.

Re: Assistant coaches for 2018
Personally I would love to see Bevo with a new team of assistants, including a senior assistant. We need a refresh in the coaching area, Bevo can't do it all alone.

Bevo is very loyal to his current assistants. Just read this

Hopefully the assistants got 'intimidating' exit interviews like Dale Morris said he got.
And whosever idea it was to shuffle them all around. Fixing something that ain't broke.

Re: Assistant coaches for 2018
Richmond has built a very strong off field coaching panel all with a Premiership background. This includes Hardwick Leppitsch Caracalla and Macrae plus an outstanding football manager in Neil Balme who was highly regarded in the Cats 3 Premierships. They also have a quality CEO in former player Brendan Gale. This is the recipe for success and something we need to seriously consider going forward.

Geez, it really does feel like we've moved to a parallel universe quoting Richmond coaching and administration successes.

It's pretty funny that Collingwood are slavishly following something that Richmond did too.
