I’d love to see a ratten/Teague combo that would be perfect in my eyes
Isn’t he the next in line at St Kilda (poor bugger)The longer it goes on the more I believe it will be Ratten. Just a feel

Yeh possible...I reckon they will get Brad Scott
I was actually thinking the same this, and totally agree with you.
What my issue is, what is being referred to untried coaches? is it coaches who haven't coached at AFL level? If so, does that mean every coach, who hasnt coached an AFL previously requires "training wheels?" That's quite insulting to a number untried assistant coaches, or VFL/SANFL/WAFL/NEAFL coaches, as it suggests the club needs to hold their hand through the coaching process. Coaches need to start somewhere. To put things in perspective, the last coach, who had coached another AFL and lead their new team to a flag was Malthouse in 2010 then before that was Matthews in 2001-2003. So, I think if the club builds the support around the right candidate, irrespective if they've coached at AFL level, it should work.
Yeah agree soap. One of the above names u have mentioned would be perfectNeed a gun tactician then
Names like Knights Caracella Longmuir Van Berlo Hocking Newman Blakey
I think Lloyd did question Juddy on whether Teague would classify as 'needing training wheels'.
Juddy's response wasn't completely direct, but did say something about (paraphrasing here) Teague being in control of the team as interim coach now not being the same as having actual senior coaching experience, with all the pressure and everything else that comes with it.
So it did seem Judd was suggesting that we are after someone who has previously been a senior coach of an AFL team before.
And i would be incredibly disappointed in Juddy and the club if so.
So do I but, like you, I’m not that confident about the selection panel. They are essentially the group that chose Bolts.I am very concerned with the clubs rhetoric in regards to our new coach, it smells of a club or selection panel too scared to make the hard decisions.
Putting a line through all potential coaches if they haven’t coached as yet because we got the last selection wrong, is like trading the number 1 pick because last time we ended p with Jack Watts.
Follow the process, same as last time, interview all candidates, free from bias, judge them all on their merits and select the best one. If that’s Teague, ok, if it’s Ratten, ok, if it’s someone else then I don’t mind.
I really hope we are doing this properly.

the interesting thing will be to see if richo doesn't coach out the season.Isn’t he the next in line at St Kilda (poor bugger)

Imagine if Hawthorn didn't take a chance on Clarkson.Options with senior experienced coaches seem limited to me, disappointed they don’t even seem open to the idea of an up and coming coach. Just because Bolton didn’t work out doesn’t mean the next one wont
Imagine if Hawthorn didn't take a chance on Clarkson.
Agreed...It's absolutely mind boggling that B. Scott is a leading candidate. I can't see any reason to appoint him.

Agreed...
The simple fact is this; unlike Clarkson, Lyon, Hinkley, Longmire, Beverage (please not Beverage), if Brad Scott was still coaching North, he wouldn’t be in the conversation.
We should be looking at the BEST available. Not just THE available.
The Saints, As much as I hate to say it, aren’t as bad as their results suggest. I reckon they’re a year behind us.Isn’t he the next in line at St Kilda (poor bugger)
1) ClarksonTop 5 in order?
