Gee John Barker is pretty short at a probability of 42%

Sam Mitchell's coaching career is off to a flyer. Equal $41 with Gary Ablett jnr, James Hird & Bluey McKenna....

The culture was a shambles. On-field he was okay, but the off-field stuff he decided to not even control it. Eade came in and removed Hunt, Bennell, Dixon, etc who were seen as the main troublemakers. The culture has improved for the better, just need it to become a winning culture, and hopefully a new coach can bring that

Dixon has been exemplary at Port so it was a win win for him and GCS.

C'mon mate - I'm basically Scoopzilla.

haha yeah keep telling yourself that. He was disciplined in the pre season for drinking and other things, he will never change

Believe what you like but he was the least of your problems.

I think saying "least" of our problems is a massive stretch and kills your credibility

So be it.

If Hinkley came back then I could see GAJ not wanting to be traded

As a Gold Coaster and you are my second team to support, my opinion is go for Brett Ratten.

 

[Dammit]

If current 'realistic chance' coaches Brad Scott would be my favourite. done a lot with an exceptionally average list.

of ex-coaches I just can't shake the feeling that Voss' AFL story isn't over yet. just think there's more to be written in this book. winners are always winners, and if he didn't go mental with just management in his time at Brisbane, I think his philosophies were alright.
I've always liked the product Ratten put on the field and like B. Scott, he got way more out of that list than he should've.
if the AFL were into it, I'd welcome Hird back with open arms as well.
I'd give Gary Ayres a bell as well.

of the new boys I like Burns a lot.
throw a blanket over everyone else because I don't know enough about them.

of the roughies, David King would be an outstanding head coach, but realise it will never happen.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat


Why

What do you see in him? From my point of view, dude is the biggest muppet in football

 

[TheSunGod]

And I'm very keen to see which coach Evans will bring in that will get Day, May, Hall, Ablett, Swallow, Hanley, Thompson, Matera, Ah Chee, Rischitelli all on the park for 23 rounds in 2018!

I think we'd need Jesus to coach for that to happen.

 

[ajsars]

Im sure Evans has a couple in mind. Trust him to make the right decision. I definitely think its time for some new blood, and a younger new coach and not someone who has coached before (unless its Clarkson which is 1% chance of happening)

 

[exile]

not a huge fan of having a coach depart before the end of the season, as it kind of says "we've thrown in the towel for this year", although i understand the reason for it. my first reaction to the news was anger, i was disappointed that he was let go, when to be honest he was given a pretty rough list to begin with. although, i have faith that evans and the board are trying to make the best decision for the future of our club. sad to see eade go, but anxious to see who we end up getting as a replacement.

Ratten for me is a good mix..
- Already been a senior coach and was stiff to be axed.
- Gone back to work on his craft at a strong club.
- Ready to make an impact again.

sounds oddly familiar to eade when we picked him up originally.

I remember that in the early days Bomber Thompson was as low as about $1.40, he was a certainty almost so don't be afraid to take someone who's a bit of value.

 

[JRyan23]

I reckon a new coach who hasn't coached yet
