How many premiership coaches has your team produced since 1960

[Frank Gallagher]

Former players who became premiership coaches, must have played the majority of their career at your club.

We've produced 1 (Mark Williams), quiet remarkable when you think about it.

How many has your team produced?

 

[Gralin]

You mean former players that became premiership coaches?

 

[Tas]

Blight (Adelaide), Pagan (North), Clarkson (Hawthorn) and Longmire (Sydney).

We haven't produced a lot of AFL level coaches though, to my memory.

 

[tigerwill]

Hafey, Sheedy, Malthouse
11 premierships between them. I think.

What is the criteria for this? Ron Barrassi would be the only obvious one but technically we could claim Alastair Clarkson and Luke Beveridge too

[STFU Donnie]

Players only? Beveridge and Hardwick both served apprenticeships under Clarkson.

 

[Juddernaut08]

4 is my guess

 

[Frank Gallagher]

Depends when you want to start from. AFL from 1990?
Sheedy, Malthouse

I changed the thread title to 'from 1960', and for players who played the majority of their career at your club.

Just Ron Barrassi then. We lose Beveridge to St.Kilda by a whopping 3 games.

Clarkson: 93 games for North, 41 Melbourne. Nope
Beveridge: 42 games for Melbourne, 31 for Footscray, 45 for St Kilda. Bit of a mongrel, not sure anyone can claim.

Close enough will do.

Yeah mate.

Beveridge: 42 games for Melbourne, 31 for Footscray, 45 for St Kilda. Bit of a mongrel, not sure anyone can claim.

We had him first

Blight (Adelaide), Pagan (North), Clarkson (Hawthorn) and Longmire (Sydney).

So that's 9 premierships if i'm counting correctly, very nice effort.

 

[BuffDog]

Bomber and Dimma in the AFL era

 

[Altum Volantes]

Just Woosha.

Don Pyke would be the only other one to go close.

Jewell.

 

[Mixed Results]

Interesting to note that Damien Hardwick, John Longmire, Alastair Clarkson and Adam Simpson all played under Dennis Pagan.

Obviously Simpson came up short and only an idiot would try to claim Hardwick for North Melbourne, but I think it says quite a bit about Pagan as a coach. For perspective that's 9 of the last 12 coaches to be in a grand final, with five of the last six premierhip winning coaches.

 

[Scotland]

John Worsfold did the WC captain/coach premiership double.

Other than that Pyke coached Adelaide to a GF.

Guy McKenna coahced Gold Coast, Dean Laidley coached North, Scott Watters coached St Kilda, both Watters and Jarrad Schofield coached a few WAFL flags.

Granted we've only been around since 1986 but all these guys played under Mick Malthouse, and McKenna, Laidley and Watters all coached under him as assistants.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Hardwick
Thompson (2)
Coleman (2)

Bobby Davis for the Cats in 1963.

I am grateful for one in particular - at the moment.
