Funny when people make "intelligence" based insults then screw up the grammar.
I seriously can't believe how so many people here are bad at reading comprehension, it's staggering.
Or basic thinking...

What's staggering is your perception of an individual, based on their weight.
would of , would've...............hang me
I never claimed to be intelligent, I jacked it mid way through year 10.
Once again perception is your downfall
How's the mirror ?
I feel inadequate now , this thread has gone downhill and instead of spending time on the exercise bike so I can look buff , I have been cutting trees down on one of my rental properties.
Do you think that maybe CC didn't have spare time to go to the gym as from all reports he spent 24/7 trying to do the best he could for us?

Yeah ridiculous.
Many portly men have achieved various great feats - Meatloaf, Marlon Brando, Mark Williams, Luciano Pavarotti, John Candy and that fat bloke with braces from the afternoon cooking show on channel 10.
CC eating a few doughnuts had nothing to do with his success as a coach.

Question that is on my mind that really says something about how we feel about the new coach: how long will we be prepared to give Harvey a shot for, before the grumbling starts and folks start asking for his head? Term of current contract? 5 years? End of our "premiership window"?
What if another coach was shopped around next year after a year with similar results to 2007? An inexperienced but hard nut like Voss? An experienced but looong term planner like Sheedy? An experienced and (ex)hard nut like Leigh Matthews? An experienced and tanned bloke like Wallace?*
TBH - I felt Harvey was a good choice given the options available to us, but I am in no way enamoured with him, and given other names out there, I'd preferentially take them in a heartbeat. I'd love to be corrected, but I don't think Harvey will be the Messiah, I think he is on a steep learning curve as the #1, and we'll have to wear the bumps that go with that.
* clearly joking about Terry

Why joking? Anyone like Wallace who takes pride in their appearance and has the discipline to spend three hours a day at the solarium must be a fantastic coach.

If they had listened to you and tanked - Pav would have left and Bell retired.
Maybe you should have a burger and an ice cream, I think your brain is suffering from low levels of fat.

Harvs has 2 years. If we don't have a turn around with our current list i'd say he'll be done and dusted by the end of 2009.
Got to agree. Harvs has shown us a bit, but we definately have a messiah complex where one guy is going to come into the club and lead us to a premiership. Harvs has a big big job ahead of him, and in reality he has no senior experience beyond a couple of games this year.

I hope Harvey learned something from Sheeds and Connolly to add to his hard nose approach. Look at how far the Roos got with limited talent.
Would you still give him the 2 years if Matthews (footy nous and hard nosed) was available next year, and we'd just scraped into the 8 in 2008? I'm a bit undecided on this - I think you have to give any new coach a good run at it (minimum 2 years - probably 3), and I really liked the fact we gave CC a good crack at it, but Harvey has already had a year and a bit at the club as assistant, and I'm not that enamoured that I can't see a more experienced coach being a better prospect of a flag in a 3-4 year window. I reckon I'd take the more bankable option; experience over speculation (much like trading established players over draft picks).
Who knows, maybe we'll win it this year
Harves turns out better than Bomber and it's all a moot point adn we don't think about coaching staff for many years (I really, really hope so), but I don't like our recent history of dumping coaches mid-season and then having to "settle" on a coach. I'd rather grind out the rest of the year and have the off-season to court and sign a new coach. If we don't get results this year, I'd focus all of our energy on fixing that rather than a players list (general consensus being that we have the cattle) and actively hunt a coach.FWIW, I have nothing against Harvey, I rated him as a player, I like that he stuck with us rather than making a play for the Essendon role and he may be the coach of the century, but I just don't like our decisions to blood coaches at senior level...
Harvey has only just been appointed and we're talking about ditching him ??
FFS, you have to give a coach the confidence and time for him to build or in our case adjust the list and his footy dept for his own personal style.
I think it will take till 2009\10 before we see Freo hopefully push towards being a premiership threat.

Stating that you are going to knife a rookie coach after his first year does the same.
Jesus H Christ on a wooden leg, give the guy a chance.
Oh....I must mention how surprised I was to see you jump in and back up GJ!!
NOT!!!
As I've always said the players play the game and the players win and lose games not the coach.
How come Choco and Leathal didn't get sacked after 2006 then?
Both had better than 1/2 a team of premiership players.
