Operation Get Hardwick

[finbarr]

A 3 time premiership coach has the luxury of choosing where he wants to go, not go where the AFL tell him to go. He'd only go to the GC if he wants the easy life in a warm climate, which is possible I guess.

 

[FutureShock]

I doubt if Hardwick will coach anywhere next year. It would mean he'd have to be up and ready to go in 4 or 5 months from now, which isn't long for someone who's just walked out on their club citing burnout. Much more likely in 2025.

Depends on the individual really. Probably right, though. We'll have to see.

Well his girlfriend likes the Gold Coast by accounts but if offered our list I don't see him walking away from that.

Depends, in his mind he may of reconciled that he has climbed the mountain and is happy for a geographical change for great cash and a new lifestyle. GC would be much warmer than Adelaide.

How old are his kids? Seeing as he had a fling and stuffed up his family life he’d be keen for a fresh start in life elsewhere too.

Perhaps Tassy coming in will also dilute GC and GWS so having a Hardwick and or Ken can help steady the ship for a while.

Send Ken to Tassy, he’d fit in.

I've been pretty burnt out this year but give me a month off I'd feel amazing, let alone 5..

It's a perfect scenario for us really.

If he wants the lifestyle he goes to GC.

If he genuinely has the passion to coach and win he chooses Port.

, I would be absolutely over the moon if Damien Hardwick was announced as the 2024 senior coach. Even better with Carr remaining as an assistant.

 

[Peninsula Boy]

Hardwick, Carr and King is pretty darn good.

 

[finbarr]

For all of David King's faults, I don't think he's so brazenly throwing out a rumour like this if he doesn't know something and truly believe it will actually come to pass.

King?

He pisses in the wind as much as anyone.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

King?

King Tredrea

 

[BornPort]

King was just guessing and trying to get some attention. I do like his response to Kane about Ken Hinkley winning 7 home and away games in a row though.

I do. You maybe underestimate how petty these guys are.

He's getting back at Kane and hoping to destabilise.

Will just keep pushing and pushing too see if Koch can stay quiet until August like he promised.

They're fking children, these people, with enormous ego's.

it's David King, he eats raw meat for breakfast

Haha what a visual!

 

[PowerBaz]

Ken, Hardwick, Carr or Cornes?

 

[Festerz]

"David King..." FMD.

Haven't we been trolled enough by this arseh*le? May as well ask that Engimal cuck who was trolling us from the Norf board what he thinks.

King has NFI. None. He's using a thought bubble to get under the skin of his SEN sidekick FFS.

 

[ClintEastwood]

King was just extrapolating I think, the same as all of us.

But I like the way he's thinking,

 

[OxfordCambridge]

Hardwick to come in to Port and deliver a flag in year 1 with Carr as his Padawan.

Hardwick to then say to Carr, "There you go mate, THAT'S how you do it, now here's the reins, build a dynasty. I'll be your Yoda if you ever need me. Ciao".
