Strategy North Melbourne Coaching Changes 2020 & Beyond

[Rod Stroker]

While somewhat impressive, it doesn't tell the full story. There are more Clarkson disciples who haven't been successful / won the ultimate:
Bolton got the boot
Leon should have got the boot after their poor performance this year and player exodus
Fagan has lost 3 finals at home and only won 1 in 2 years
Rats won 1 final by a couple of points and got beaten comfortably in the other

Marty Mattner is another name I’d like to see apply

No you wouldn’t. Players don’t think he’s up to it. Better suited to SANFL

The media seem to have an interest in us buying a lemon.

Longmire ✔
Thompson ✔

The media seem to have an interest in us buying a lemon.

I think the multitude of stories they can write about not checking his past coaching efforts is the driving influence for this

I love the references to Ratten being better second time around, what proof is there of this?

Leigh Matthews would be handy

Leigh Matthews would be a good target 68 years old, Craig Ballamy is 61 years old. I have never understood age being a issue regarding coaching. John Kennedy, Norm Smith, Wally Carter, Allan Jeans and Fagan.

Doubt lethal wants to coach again

Doubt lethal wants to coach again

Would be nice to put a good offer in front of him, I'm sure they would have said the same about kanga before he took the North job.

 

[Devington]

No to asking a bloke 2000000 years out of the game to coach.

 

[Bugsy Malone]

No to asking a bloke 2000000 years out of the game to coach.

Look at he's record as a player and coach. 12 years out of the game but I would be rapt if he took charge of North. The bloke is a legend and winner, but unlikely to happen anyway.

Is lethal there..mentally?

Seems to be as sharp as ever in he's interviews. Most people forget that the mind is one of the last things to go.

Whichever way the coaching situation goes I am confident we will have the talent to be contenders in the next few years who ever the coach is.

 

[Intothewind]

If most people are forgetting something, maybe the mind is not the last thing to go?
Anyway, Lethal says he got flustered and stuffed up his Norm Smith selection so dont really want him in charge of the magnet board.

Leigh Matthews **** me.

We getting a giant list, expanded salary cap, zone selections, access to the best 9 players from another club and priority picks to go with him?

 

[Thewlis Dish]

What about Barassi?

 

[roos_fanatic08]

What about Barassi?

Barassi, Bartlett and Leigh Mathews. Co-coaches

We can then turn the hub into a retirement village.

 

[Supreme_Chancellor]

Need someone who's in touch with the modern game. Leigh hasn't been involved in any coaching position in over a decade.

Matthews is living a very cruisy life up here in Brisbane. There is no way he’s leaving.

Wasn't that was what he was doing as coach of an expansion club anyway?

2020 Media: Pimping Voss
2025 Media: Crazy Voss 2.0 why was NM so stupid to appoint Voss?

Bolton is a classic assistant type and should never have been given a senior job.

has only been involved in 2013 flag with Clarko.
Fagan has turned a basket case of a list into a solid top 4 side, years ahead of schedule.
Rats has turned a team that was going nowhere into a strong finals team on the rise in just 1 season.

Lethal is lucky to make it through a game remaining conscious.
