This is the hardest one to figure out. Mick still seems to be popular with players, Eddie and board members. But we are not getting the result we want. I really think McGuane is at least a few years away from being a chance. I think the position is 15th to 7th and ultamately next year has to be the top or Mick is out of here. What ever the result is get ready for some big or small changes in the next 2 to 4 weeks.

But seriously, you guys must be seriously ded if you think McGuane should get a job. It is time for an assistant coach to come in. Guy McKenna would be the perfect start. Mick, I don't know, the time has come to reconsider, though he has done a decent job, he gets outcoached far too often.

Lets hand over the reigns to a reformed gambler, alcoholic and off-field disgrace...

Everitt and Gardiner... let's build that culture we all want so badly

You may need to explain in a bit more detail re your comments. Being around the club for the past 30 years i know what your saying but maybe the others dont. But remember forgive and forget he was great on the field.
 
Mick Malthouse will have a few years at least. Can't see him getting the sack if we make the finals next year and we're a huge chance at that.

Just for arguments sake if Mick were given his marching orders, the preference for coaches would be Mark Williams > Guy McKenna > Bucks captain coach > Mich McGuane.

I can not disagree with anything you have said and the list of next coaches are in the correct order IMO
 
MM has been great, but I don't think we are going to go the next step with him in charge, I hope I am wrong as I assume he will be around next year. Williams has indicated in the Adelaide press the Collingwood job is attractive but he won't leave Port. I would like to see McKenna given a chance and I would not mind Gary Lyon involved with Bucks waiting in the wings.
 
We are quite simply NOT going to fire our coach after improving from 15th to 5th, when we know we are still on the rebuilding path.

As I said, nobody would be calling for Malthouse's head if we had finished 9th, because it would have been an improvement on the ladder position from last year, but people wouldn't have had the disappointment of losing a final.

McGuane was a duel best and fairest winner, Victorian representative (four times), All-Australian honorary, but most significantly, Collingwood premiership player. He also attained Collingwood Hall of Fame stature earlier this year.

If you speak to guys who say him play they will tell you he was in the top echelon of League players. BT said he was the most skillful player behind Daicos and also he loved receiving the ball from McGuane's boot laces.

I would say Mick's done very well with what he's got. Unfortunately, he never resorted to a clean out of the list, and if he doesn't do so this year, he will never coach another flag again.

Reformed gambler!!!! Says who??? My mail is that he still punts up allright. Can't say about the drink and the gals though.

As a potential coach, he has plenty of footy smarts and probably understands the modern game as well any other ass. coach going around.
 
Why is Mick McGuane's name even being mentioned?

Yes there have been some positive comments about his coaching abilities but he's been an AFL assistant coach for what, 1-2 years? There are a long line of candidates ahead of McGuane right now.

And just because McGuane was an ex-Collingwood great should make absolutely no difference whatsoever. The coach of Collingwood should be the best available candidate regardless of where he played or coached. Are people forgetting what happened last time we went blindly for a Collingwood great?

Exactly. That strategy should be left back in the 1970s where it belongs.

The good bloke policy has done us wonders hasn’t it? McGuane would be a big risk. MM is not a risk. We already know what he doesn’t have and hasn’t done.

The man's a genius. He watched Collingwood train before the Pies Saints clash and he said some intriguing things.
I reckon he'll make a bloody good senior coach!

Disagree.

It's nice to have your own, providing they are the real deal.

Longer than Leigh Mathews was.

McGuane has been talked up since Parkin had him in the box which was a lot more than 2 years ago. He has taken the reigns in the bush which is a very hands on do it all yourself role. He has been at a couple of AFL clubs and he has played under Mathews and in a premiership.

There is not doubt McGuane is a risk. IMO if Collingwood don’t take risks we won't win a premiership.

Changing coaches to anyone else would be a risk, so why would you multiply that risk by hiring a relatively inexperienced coach compared to other candidates on offer?

There are at least 10 other assistant coaches in the AFL that Collingwood would consider before McGuane starting with McKenna. I've heard the good things about McGuane and if even half are true he sounds like he could be a great coach. But the days of inexperienced coaches taking the head role ended a while back now. Matthews might have done it but it was a different era which doesn't apply now.

If we're that desperate to hire a Collingwood man to coach us, IMO Gavin Brown would be a fair way ahead of McGuane.

But remember that many champion players do not make good coaches.Looka t the current crop of coaches.
 
I have never really been a fan of Williams, but I dont know much about him, what does he have to offer as a coach? (Other then an overdue flag with Port)

As for McGuane, Im purely speaking about the way he has gone about his business as coach in country footy and now, last year or so, as an assistant coach. Forget the fact he is a Collingwood great, so what? Thats not why I mentioned him, I would've just said Lou Richards should be coach then lol

M McGuane's coaching record speaks for itself. May not be AFL, but it must account for SOMETHING.

Can anyone please assist me with some statistics on what he did as coach please.
