Toast Chris Fagan Announced Coach Of The Year

[fugitive]

Not sure if there’s an official thread for this but it deserves one. Another accolade to sweeten 2019 for the Lions with Fages taking out coach of the year by a whopping 100+ votes over Leon Cameron!

Leon Cameron second is interesting, I guess they are taking finals form into account? Would have thought Hardwick could have been up there considering the injury list the tigers had earlier this year.

Making finals despite the injury list and then helping his time find their best form and made the grand final. Pretty good coaching.

Hardwick did exactly this except got them into a top 4 finish and won the first final.

Former champs Craig McRae and Nigel Lappin were 1st & 2nd respectively for assistant coach of the year!

Hardwick was 3rd I think.

No idea what McRae's aspirations are but I reckon he would be very competitive for a senior coaching gig...intelligent, well educated (teacher, I think) and good experience in quality clubs.

Hence he came third. It's obviously

Hope he wins it next year

Agreed, he's now also a premiership coach with Tigers at least at the VFL level.

 

[Ceebee]

Couldn't be anyone else,he has been wonderful.

Onya Fages

His unbridled joy at his players success, and their embrace of his role, is something you can neither learn - nor buy.

 

[Dalions]

Love this man!

This is a good little clip.
