Maybe we should employ Mrs Hardwick in some sort of role at the club?

Respect what he built and achieved with us, but now that he is coaching another side, he is the only coach I want us to beat more than anything.
We loved him when we were winning. He Cotch, Benny and Peggy with the senior players transformed the club. It's hypocritical to bag him too strongly, you may not agree with the way things panned out but we are not in his shoes so we shouldn't judge too hard, but he brought respect back to the RFC.
Glad he left when he did because he had very much run his race. I reckon the players like most supporters would think likewise.
I respect his legacy, seems like a pretty good bloke in general, players loved him so he must be okay.

The one word Damien Hardwick didn’t say when quitting Richmond
The master coach said people jumped to a common conclusion when he stunned the AFL world.

It's just the way the industry is, for mine. It was fairly clear he had another offer on the table, rather than being 'burned out' from coaching in general. He was probably cooked from coaching Richmond, needed a fresh start.
Now he's the enemy, but he lead us to 3 flags. That's fine with me.

If they’re the ruthless qualities and are part and parcel of a 3 time premiership coach, then I can live with them.
I don’t care to like him as a person, only what he was able to achieve for our club.

He's not a Tiger now so all focus on our new coach YZE.
Ty Dimma for the ride but you are the oppo now and I sure you feel the same.
Enjoy the semi trailer of frees from the CFL this year.

AFLs excuse why we got some many frees against was due to our game plan. Funny how when Lollingwood copied after McCrae came in that they didn't suffer the same fate and nor will GC for sure.
Listen I’m still filthy that Tom hafey took Alan Edwards with him to Coll leaving my no17 jumper in no man’s land ,,, so yea I do have a long memory , I make no apologies for that
“This is going to sound a little bit arrogant but I was a three-time premiership coach that had walked away from the game and all of a sudden you’ve probably created a market,” he said.

He had the offer when he quit. Who is he trying to fool.“This is going to sound a little bit arrogant but I was a three-time premiership coach that had walked away from the game and all of a sudden you’ve probably created a market,” he said.
himself maybe
Amazing how a holiday helps that.
He was burnt out because the message wasn’t getting through anymore.
New challenge. New energy.

Love what he did for the club, but lost a lot of respect for him cheating on his missus, who he so fondly talked about during our premiership years. Neither here nor there on him now, is just another coach of a side I have no interest in
yeah it was the fact that he mentioned Danielle more than any fugn coach in history has or ever will
every fugn presser he trotted her out bignoting his family man image
kinda made it worse somehow
think he mightve been mk ultra'd in the u.s
moving on doesn't mean some blancmange wipe of history bro
if you wanna move on and not make the same mistake twice you move on with ah, learnings [vomit]
i don't lose one minute's sleep about him or even think of him unless he is mentioned
but
he did not walk his talk
why is it so uncomfortable for some for tiger faithful to have lost faith in dimma or not like him?
he preached family and loyalty and he led us into 2023 checked out, 8 games from throwing the towel yeah?
shoulda quit end of 22 if he knew he would give up if we lost lunch/dusty etc [and he wouldve known deep down]
he made it the damien hardwick show
ppl gonna opine
nobody's shocked

Don't think his relationship with Cotchins was the same after he dumped his missus. As you say Dimma, Cotchin etc. preached culture and loyalty. Dimma shat on that.

Love him for what he gave to us long suffering fans.
But the term 'Richmond man' had obviously lost its meaning to him.
I'm mildly negative, doesn't sit well with me.
But what he brought to the club can never be forgotten and should always be celebrated.
