After 2017, would you focus on Richmond's previous 9 years, or just one?

Or he will get the job at Port once Hinkleys sacked and make us wish we hired him.
Will be coaching Melbourne by then.

Smart men dont burn their bridges. Think Yze was very gracious unlike Sumich.
Went to the AFL site before coming here. Was very disappointed with the exposure that was extended to the AFC's annoucement and the introduction video. Given the amount of hype and plaudits that was given to Teague and Ratten it just shows how much the AFL think of our team. Personally I think its disgusting. I know we are in the middle of the trade announcements and perhaps that is why the AFC waited till after 6 to make the formal introduction but hell this was a formal announcment from a club in the AFL. Think the AFL can go f**k themselves.

Imagine how he felt when he was picked up in a real life limo. The driver seemed a trustworthy fella too
And you expected what exactly? Don't hold your breath waiting for the media to cover the appointment of a coach nobody's heard of to a club nobody in Victoria gives a s**t about.

Weren’t they slammed for having one of the most slow and boring game plans?

Spoke with passion at his presser and said all the right things.
I'm not totally convinced yet, but I'll get onboard to find out.

I don’t recall that. In Clarko’s first year they scored 86 points per game compared to 75 the previous year. But perhaps you are right.
I just had a vauge recollecting that there was plenty of talk about his game being slow and boring possession game.

Hoping Nicks ruffles the leadership group up. Hoping Brodie Smith for captain.

Hawthorn in Clarkson's first year had young Hodge, Mitchell, Franklin, Roughhead et al.
Why on earth would the putrid state of our list deserve the same 'patience'? We'd all be patient if we were watching elite talent develop- it's just that we have maybe one on our entire list in Fog, and no plan to get more- instead we're losing good players for the right to pick chaff.

Nah, just what you'll start seeing around here more I think. People need to delude themselves into thinking that we're the victims of some sort of conspiracy so that they can justify closing ranks and falling in line again.
I saw someone post 'AFC vs everybody' or something similar recently- what a joke. As if we have any interest in common with our club's administration which has wilfully abused us and which is directly responsible for our misery. But yeah, let's close ranks with those guys and say it's all the mean victorians faults.
Are the Power the best source for coaches?
Their players and assistants have a pretty good record don't they?

He speaks very well in all the media ive heard. Hope hes still capable of having the tough chats when he needs to.
I thought his press conference was impressive. Wasn’t my preferred candidate for no reason at all but certainly making the right noise.
Still a long way to go to turn this football club around but we’re already infinitely better positioned just by removing two and adding one.
Next stop - Chapman.

I can't help but wonder (without number figuring each move) at the difference between PA player trading and our at AFC. Rightly or wrongly PA are dynamic in making things happen. They perennially finish below us and yet routinely seem to trade/select better than AFC. By comparison our list development seems fairly ordinary. There ain't much excitement.
I'm not convinced they have a plan.
This alleged dynamic decision making hasn't exactly yielded on field success
Time will tell. He presented well yesterday.. spoke well and looked very confident but like most coaches when they are appointed they all talk well etc.
We must all support him.. 2020 we should all let him get his feet under the desk and let him change the place so hopefully there are no "#Nicksout" things floating around lol
All the best, Matty
