I was the same - I thought Harvey had a "sackable" season in 2011, but my fear was they'd either bring in another rookie to replace him, or some former coach like Malthouse at Carlton or Eade at the Suns (or going further back, Blight at St Kilda or Pagan at Carlton) who was finished and had lost touch with the game.
Getting in a guy who was already a coach and at the top of his game was the biggest coup in footy.
Sackable yes if there is a better coach available. There were worse candidates floating around.
I would have put it more as "replaceable" than sackable. Just because an incumbent is not doing something specifically wrong doesn't mean that they should be immune to being replaced with a better available candidate.
Kind of like dating.
