Analysis If Richmond win the premiership in 2023, will Damien Hardwick go down as the greatest coach of all time?

[catscollector]

It's raining GOAT's!

 

[CharacterFirst]

I dunno.

How many Norm Smith medals has he won?

 

[terrybull]

Great everyone agrees 100%

do you think he's the greatest already or only if he wins 2023?

 

[Footy_Fan2007]

Yes

 

[Lionheart182]

Dimma’s best feature as a coach is being an illustration on why fans don’t run footy clubs. Would have been sacked years ago if it were up to the Richmond ‘faithful’.

 

[Interdimensional Bigfoot]

Yes

Jock McHale says hi.

Next thread: "If Richmond Go Undeafeted All Season, Will They Be The Best Team Ever?"

Don't be ******* stupid. Everyone knows Richmond never win more games than they need to. To do so would be akin to dying with unspent funds that could have been more wisely invested in hookers and racetracks and bars all over the world.

Jock McHale
8 Premierships
1917 - Playing coach
Record four in a row 27, 28, 29 & 30
Back-to-Back: 35 & 36

46% finals win record v Dimma's 66%.

Besides, how many Jock McHale Medals did Jock McHale ever win?

 

[Fat Jesus]

46% finals win record v Dimma's 66%.

That means Zero mate.
8 premierships and 4 in a row and you're trying your best to downplay that.
Enjoy your 3

Terribly weak era. As a Richmond supporter I can tell you for a fact our 1927-29 teams were nowhere near as good as our worst hiatus teams from the 1983-2016 era. Well done to old Jock for sneaking a few Grand Finals wins in a shocking era.

You're dreaming buddy. It was a great era.

In total, McHale coached 714 VFL games with 467 wins and 10 draws (a 66.1% winning rate).

Hardwick around 53%.

You conveniently posted finals records. Richmond only had 4 or 5 decent years.

8 Premierships lol top that

A couple of those premierships have huge asterisks next to them. Wasn't there some ridiculous replay system rule in place??

The rule was almost as ridiculous as Colin Carter's attempts to get the Cats more flags when the media decided who the best team was way back in 1241 AD.

 

[Mr Meow]

He only got those flags because of the undisputed GOAT Dusty, so no. Brad Scott could've got a three peat with North if he had Dusty.

Mate we'd have won 4 in a row too if we could lose a prelim and not be knocked out.

 

[Stax on the mill]

Great. Another Tiger supporters wankfest! Mods should delete these threads and perma card the OP’s.

it's genuine question foxfooty asked

what you reckon if he wins 1 more? or does he need 2 or 3 more?

Needs six more to surpass McHale.

 

[terrybull]

No

I’m just sick of this threads (specially started by Tigers supporters).

It’s obvious started to cause a sh1t fight.

Just humor him and it will end…

 

[terrybull]

I got an idea of a new thread.

When St.Kilda win their 30th wooden spoon should the title change from wooden spoon to the St.Kilda award?

 

[MisterMarcus]

With the GOAT player and GOAT coach, anything other than an undefeated season into a premiership will be seen as nothing more than an abject failure.

Nah, you just know the AFL will intervene and make rule changes and MRO decisions purely to hurt Richmond.

Everything and everyone is in conspiracy against the Tigers.

You just watch, the AFL and the MRO and the umpiring and the schedule and the weather and God himself will all conspire to screw them out of yet another flag.

 

[Toump Ass]

Honestly if damo makes the eight with this cooked list I think you could make a fair argument it's humanity's greatest achievement.
Flying to the moon, pyramids of giza, "mr hardwick" getting 2023 shitmond into finals, hard to split.

 

[Do the Dew]
