Hypothetical: Next Collingwood coach? (Think this is disrespectful? OK, OK, we get it)

[Saintly Viewed]

Yes it's a classic alright. Love a good mafia film. I recently finished the book iceman about Richard Kuklinski. The movie is worth a look if you haven't seen it.

Must do so then

 

[Mongo Ming]

By that measure, how many of the Hawks assistants are successful.... Um, Bevo?

I was merely highlighting other guys who'd spent time in Collingwood FDs who'd escaped your list.

Yeah fair enough

Ratten was a better coach then Bucks BEFORE doing an apprenticeship under Clarko.

 

[Matt_352]

Head Coach: Brett Ratten
Defence: Rohan Smith
Mids: ?
Fwds: Brenton Sanderson (only as he is contracted
Ruck: ?
Development: Brendon McCartney and Luke Hodge
Keep Gotch on
Keep Rivers VFL

I can't see how Rivers is safe. I think putting an ex player into the position after just 1 year in a coaching apprenticeship was very premature.

The VFL is very much responsible for grooming young players into being AFL ready, and here we are with a rookie coach with next to zero coaching experience. I'd much rather see us employ another Ayres/Tapping type, or perhaps see if there are any former AFL coaches who would be willing to take on the gig. Rocket, come on down.

Sounds good to me

Rohan Smith is as anti Collingwood as they come.

Fair nuff

The good news is the players can "play for" our next coach too. They also can develop better and have a more rigid defensive gameplan in place to succeed.

I can't find it for the life of me but remember reading in the off season about a new metric that predicts rise and fall of clubs. Something to do with how many games/seasons the team has played together. Predicted the rise of the doggies etc. Had us bottom 4 in 2017 if I remember correctly. Seems to have been proven right to a degree. If anyone can find the article that would be great. By their measure Bucks is ahead of the curve.

Brett Ratten.
Did not a bad job with the putrid list that was Carltank.
Now several years at the premier club of the last half decade.
From what I understand though, Collingwood will only "appoint a current senior coach" to replace the car crash that was the Captains pick.
So there isn't much to choose from. Which is exactly what the Captain wants.

We had a thread on here.

It predicted the Tigers and Melbourne improving.........it did predict us sliding you're correct.

If I knew how to find it I would bump it for you.......very interesting theory/model.

 

[HeathySure]

WE need a club superstar appointed by Ed without any experience like we did with Bucks. So i reckon Dane Swan would fit in quite well. Give him a 6 year contract.

 

[Black_White]

Yes, yes, yes...Swanny!
What a ride that would be.
We could lose by 100 weekly, yet the crowds would come just to see Swanny go off.
Well, go off in a relaxed way.
Make it so!

You are probably right about the thread. I think people underestimate the importance of team chemistry. We haven't had any the last four years. Only now do we see a slight resemblance of team cohesion. Sadly I think the hard work would have been done for someone else to step in and reap the rewards.

Throw cash at someone and the hatred is soon forgotten

 

[Matt_352]

Rohan was defenders coach at dogs in their premiership year. Surely he would be able to help us with our defensive structures

Is it in this thread?

[jmac70]

Let's give it to Dale Tapping. BF would be happy

 

[Carringbush2010]

Rattan, Williams or McCartney. Eade not so much. Equally, I'd like all 3 added as assistants for 2018 if they opt to re-sign Bucks.

If we were to keep Nathan this would look a good scenario; if there is one thing that worries about bucks is his supposed stubbornness to coach one way my way or the highway. If that is true as voiced by Ben Hart then no amount of panel change ups will improve our situation if he stays on

 

[Carringbush2010]

Because he had the persona of an assistant coach. Doesn't look like the boss.

Looked like the boss when he was head coach at Carlton; they had no right being top 4 but he got em there!

 

[Carringbush2010]

Gold, it's just gold.

One of the greatest ever movie dialogues.

A lot of it was improvised.

Like the scene with them eating at the mothers, with the Jimmy Conway charcuterie saying "a hoof"

To get on track for the thread.

Who cares about the coach, it's such a bore.

Nathan will coach a few more years yet, till then everyone called bing can go....

I thought I told you to go...

It's all in the delivery!

Nah I stand by it, he's a flog. Nothing that's comes out his mouth is worth listening too. He can keep right away.

 

[Countrypie]

Lol.. you're a funny guy Saintly. What if he grew a big handle bar tache? Would he look like the boss then?

He's look like that biker guy from the village people ...such a boss

 

[Help My Club]

Next coach - buckley of course.

I do laugh at the occasional comment that we should bring in high quality people such as Ratten, Caracella etc to be Buckley's assistants. Anyone ever thought that it would be an insult to offer these more credentialed dudes an assistant role under Buckley?
