Coach Experience Coach required for FFC

[freo1997]

Now I have posted on here cause this sort of thread gets shut down immediately over at the Freo board unfortunately.

It’s obvious to me Freo needs an experienced coach, proven record and able to get the best out of his players. Tough, ruthless and driven.

Choco Williams comes to mind for me. Done it before and doing good things at the Dees.

Thoughts

(I get there’s gonna be Lyon reply’s. No need to post that it’s not that quick witted)

Nah main coach.

 

[Bald]

Can someone please tell me the last time a coach was on their second stint and won a premiership? Was it Malthouse in 2010?

Don Pyke

Sumich sucks and honestly Pyke wouldn’t go down well as we have a rich indigenous history at our club.

Nathan Buckley will be very good 2nd go at it IMO.

Collingwood has done too well since he’s left. Thanks for the opinion keep them coming!

That was his third stint

2010 was Malthouse's third stint, but yes. Matthews the most recent before that.

 

[freo1997]

Is there a hidden gem like McRae out there?

 

[Priddis Is Done]

Kick bell out. He's in over his head.

Turns out there are no feathers i the cap but some kind of pron sicko fetish.

Yep, and before that it was Leigh Matthews' three-peat.
Malthouse has actually done it twice - his 94 flag with West Coast was a second stint after his Footscray days.
David Parkin has also done it, 78 flag with the Hawks then Carlton flags in 81, 82 & 95.

Nah, we good.

I love JL personally, doing great things for the MFC alongside Belly.

He hasn't been a head coach but I have always liked Simon Lloyd.

Featured snippet from the web​

Lloyd has enjoyed a long and successful career with 20-years AFL industry experience, working across the key football functions of coaching, high performance, development, recruitment and psychology, and recently completed the AFL's level four senior coach program.

Lloyd joined the Cats after spending six years with Fremantle. He was a key part of the Dockers coaching staff that in 2013 led the club to its first grand final.

Lloyd has also held positions with Collingwood and Hawthorn. He was with the Magpies from 2005-2009 as high-performance manager, psychologist and specialist coach. He joined the Hawks in 1998 and served the club as development coach, psychologist and player development manager until the end of the 2004 season.

 

[Bald]

That was his third stint

I probably should've just written "experienced coach".

How many experienced coaches have been given the ass in that time? Malthouse on his forth stint from Carlton, Eade from Gold Coast, Ratten from St Kilda. This idea that experienced = better is so backwards.

Yeah did well at Freo as an Assistant.

Choco has been great for MFC.

His power is being in the background and not the main man where his knowledge , enthusiasm, life experience , matter of fact manner and just being a good bloke really resonates with the playing group. He is a guy that can bring the best out in a player .

It can be hard to be that person while in the head coach role where a more staid approach is required for overseeing the whole operation.

Ross Lyon?

 

[kreuze_missile]

Let the Fremantle finger pointing begin.

Always happens the year after a club over achieved like Freo did in 2022.

IMO Freo’s current issue is list management, not coaching.

Let good players walk & replaced them with less good ones on more money.

expecting a ruckman to become a full forward.

Several years of mediocrity ahead. Not the least bit surprised.

 

[PT Bar None]

There can be only one...

 

[kreuze_missile]

Ross Lyon?

If the phone call hasn’t been made yet it won’t be long

 

[Bianconeri]

Nathan Buckley will be very good 2nd go at it IMO.

If they’re not happy with Longmuir not sure replacing him with Buckley is the answer.

Michael Voss, 2023-2027 5 peat.

Yes, I have a time machine.

 

[The 747]

Woosha would be a good choice
