      Re: Assistant Coaches

      Could we look at Barlow, very impressive VFL coach, bring him in as an assistant he definitely has a great backing from his players.
      Heard him on the radio the other night, seemed like a natural.

          He's a very good coach and I think he could come in as a line or development coach.

            Re: Assistant Coaches

            Do we now assume that the two coaches coming in are still part of finals of some sort?

            Same with our fitness staff?
            More of an In Bruges guy?

              I'm guessing that the fitness staff will take some time to interview and while it's a reasonable assumption that our next assistants could be attached to finals teams it could also be that one or two of other coaches had their hat in the ring for Richmond.

              I think we will know more but the end of next week.

                I still think for the players to really get on board we need a name someone that is from a successful system that can help tweak our game plan and get some excitement back in our playing style.

                  Hopefully McQualter misses out at Richmond would be perfect for us, I would of thought the cats would be also interested.

                    There was some talk today that Richmond have widened their search which indicates that t might not be a race in two between McQualter and Yze. I don't know enough about McQualter might bring us other than he served a good apprenticeship under Hardwick.

                    Things have gone a bit quiet on our coaching recruiting but it has to start up again soon.

                      A bit worried no good assistants want to come.

                        I thought I read it was down to McQualter and Yze. Looks like Gia missed.

                          I think we would be a great destination for any aspiring assistant coaches. The new facilities and of course a good senior coach who is loyal to his assistants must be very tempting.

                            I had a mate send me a message that he thinks Richmond have reached out to some other former coaches. Perhaps it's just to get their input and experience but things could snowball from there.

                              Good time to come in too I think. To most, we have underperformed. A lot is being put on the assistants for next year. If we can rise, it'll mae the assistants look really good.

                                Yeah Buckley and Cotchin have gone into the final two interviews. I wonder if Melbourne's straight set exits might go against Yze? There territory game looks a little outdated like ours and it does sounds like he is running the game plan.
