woosh only won a flag because he had without a doubt the greatest midfield to ever play in the league
his results from 2007 onwards proves that point.
simpson winning a flag this year would put him ahead of woosh in terms of coaching achievements.

Ugh I hate when they use photos with old logos, jumpers and players, but write the captions in present tense

Simmo gets a good pump up by Malthouse in the HS.
Adam Simpson, to me, was only just pipped as coach of the year by Hardwick. The Eagles were expected to slide this season. Instead they’ve blooded several young players and adjusted to a new home ground. They lost Nic Naitanui again to injury, and had last year’s Coleman medallist Josh Kennedy in and out of the side, and still excelled.
Simpson has a calming influence on his team. No job appears too big, no loss too great. He enjoys a win no less than his players, but he is able to refocus very quickly.
He has unearthed some ripping young talent this season — Liam Ryan, Liam Duggan, Daniel Venables, Tom Cole and Willie Rioli, and in the absence of Kennedy, Jake Waterman has been excellent.
The Eagles are expertly led on the field by quiet achiever, Shannon Hurn.
With the growth of Scott Lycett, Jack Darling, Brad Sheppard, Luke Shuey, Elliot Yeo and Chris Masten, West Coast has a complete team.
Simpson is defensively minded and defence wins finals. Importantly, the Eagles know how to kick goals, too, having averaged 91.5 points per game. But they also know their finals opponent has a wonderfully credentialed and multi-pronged forward line that must be nullified.

Is Schofield that big a deal? Not a rhetorical question - genuinely interested.
He’s left Subiaco hasn’t he? Yet didn’t they just go the whole season undefeated or something? Is it because of him or are they just inherently dominant?

He's still coaching them this year but will be leaving to pursue AFL.
His record at Subiaco is stupid good. Yes, they've been dominant and brought in good players, but Schofield has been a significant part of their dominance, of that there is no doubt.

Even if we don't win a flag under Simmo's reign I'd back his tenure to be more successful than the purple cousins down the road with Ross The Sexual Harassment Boss.
With 18 teams it's not reasonable to expect flags every year, and this season shapes to be Richmond vs the rest.
