There's something about a 100 point loss in our game that carries more psychological weight than losing by 70-80 points even though the difference is only 3-4 goals.
Dean Bailey - Melbourne Coach 2008 - 2011
Had 3 100+ losses in his time as coach.
Mark Neeld - Melbourne Coach 2012 - 2013
Had 4 100+ losses in his time as coach.
Brad Scott - North Melbourne Coach 2010 - 2019
Had 3 100+ losses in his time as coach.
Scott lasted as long as he did because the middle part of his tenure saw us play finals. Also our board was spineless and it took Scott himself to tell them that he felt change was needed. Which then forced the board's hand into making that very change. Otherwise he'd still been our coach today.
The other 2 examples show that those coaches didn't last long coaching a bottom team.
We are that bottom team.
Our current coach is a season and 3 games into his job and already has 2 100+ point losses on his record. Is Noble in trouble if we have another defeat of this size? Should he be in trouble?
