Bolton, Dew or Kirk I'll be happy with as coach.
Would Tudor be a good coach?
Edit - sorry just saw the other thread.

I can't wait to see the next coach bare the brunt of a dissatisfied and delusional supporter base.
I thought Luke Beveridge was going ok ?!?I can't wait to see the next coach bare the brunt of a dissatisfied and delusional supporter base.

3.5 ! Loose change for jimmy.Just heard on sen from Robbo that Hird knocked back 3.5million to walk away at the end of 2014 when he got back from France. Anyone who thinks that this guy was just looking after his own interests are delusional. He clearly wanted to ride this storm out with the players.
Maybe check in with the bulldog board bud ?What about Brendan Mcartney and missing finals 4 years straight?
Agree with you that we will more than likely be struggling in the immediate future....I think we will really get on board once again and enjoy footy when our team is full of young kids on the rise playing exciting games like the doggies atm. Zac merret was a joy to watch this year...I think we need a team full of kids like him. Watching the blokes that have been through this will bring up pain full memories as harsh as it sounds. I will buy my membership...I will follow the team...but it feels like it will be ages before I will actually enjoy it how I used to.We are basically in a position where we need to win tattslotto to succeed. Most supporters who are realistic know we are starting from the bottom again and it may take another 5 years to see a modicum of success of finals.
Can't see the playing group turn it around. Mentally soft. We need to gut about 5 senior long term players immediately and hope we nail 3 drafts in a row.
Not even GC or GWS have succeeded in 5 years and they've been handed every thing under the sun.
All smoke and mirrors at the moment. We'll be lucky to win 4 games next year.

But I thought Bomber was at fault for all our woes!What a snake Little is. Completely botched everything. Lost Bomber, then lost Hird. Beggars belief the incompetence.

From other posts of yours I've glanced at you seemed confident we would be able to turn things around once Wada was done and dusted.
But I thought Bomber was at fault for all our woes!
Which is it, kelv?
Mate, I get it. You're upset. I think a lot of people are. I've been of the view Hird was on borrowed time for a while and I still think it's a sad day for our club and not at all handled well.
However, this potting of the players for being soft...given what they've been through and are still going through, I think it's pretty crap.
Was confident of us turning it around once WADA was gone and we had a good injury run next year but the sacking means we are headed down a scary path.
I reckon a few players will either jump or be looking to jump ship and start to facilitate their move. It may not happen this trade period but they'll sound out their manager and the ball will roll. Carlisle's comments speak volumes. Players never play to their optimum when they are looking elsewhere.
Add a new coach who'll want assurances of a 3 year rebuild and it means the club will be happy to wear it.
Once you get the playing group into a mental state of rebuild you are dangerous territory.
Clubs had over 400 membership cancellation requests.
Hoping once emotions calm down they'll reconsider.

Never said Bomber was at fault for all our woes. Said he should also wear a fair portion of the blame. He did start the slow, chip game plan last year but no one seems to acknowledge it.
The Hird and Bomber team where working great together. When separated it fell apart. The board and Little have lost the plot.
We have a number of mentally soft players like all mid range teams. One too many. Don't think its something we all didn't know.
Let the campaigners walk.
Rubbish. It was doomed from the start with the appointment of Weapon and Dank.
It separated after 2013. In 2014 we played a final and gave a good account of ourselves.
It fell apart this year.
Sorry mate but it needs to be repeated ad nauseum as you guys have your heads buried in the sand. In 2014 we had a ruckman and our best every injury run for a long time. 3 or 4 mid range clubs capitulated due to injury and we got their with our senior core midfield in Watson, Heppell, Zaka, Hocking & Myers doing the business.
The fact that the players wanted Hird to stay suggests they are frustrated at the club moreso than anything else. Unless you get sweeping changes in the club then they'll continue to show the lukewarm response to it and the results will follow.
