If they aren't in conversations with this guy then they aren't being fair dinkum. This club is being ruined. Hardwick is turning into Brett Ratten. Too close to his players and his Terry's Triangle revamp was a back yard fantasy based on the recruitment of a player that can get a tap out and then makes us play with a man down for the rest of the game

Too close to his players and hasn't dropped a senior player out of form all year . Says enough for me . Season was shot after round 3 and he's still looking for answers.

Please please Richmond , finish him up now and put us all out of our misery

Whether or not you want this to happen, it just wont happen so at least he will get next season. I understand your point about senior players but he has done that in TV. Just saying.

He's gone Flea

 

[kozi]

He'll be gone at seasons end about 80-90% sure now. There's always the question of what keeping him around achieves.

I bet you he coaches next year.

People can always pray he quits I guess.

I do too . I just hope it's us and not Essendon or the Crows

Won't be us. Dimma will be coaching us.
I think even if things go from the crap it is now to absolute basket case bottom 3 he'll still be coaching next year.
He would need to have a crap start next year before the board would consider his position.

 

[theflea]

He's gone Flea

Not this year he isn't.

 

[The Rusty Trombone]

Not this year he isn't.

He's incapable of turning
It around so at years end he's a gonner . Or he could always delist Hampson and build some solidarity in the club again and save his job

Whether you think he should coach us next year isn't the question.
The board give every indication that they will allow Dimma the time to address our epic crapness that is 2014.

Simples...Draft picks...

I understand that they will Rumballs and like the Melbourne game last night was one of those opportunities. I'm just saying I don't think he can turn it around as he is still looking for answers as to why it's happening and and we need to be prepared and ready for when he doesn't .

I do understand he'll have to the end of the year .

["The Roar Is Back"]

The list was always limited it's why we have been able to pick up so many players from other clubs for next to nothing and why the draftees have come in and had close to their biggest impact right from the start . We got immediate impact yet nothing there after , it is where the later round picks should have been used , on project type longer developing yet huge upside types . We haven't got that and won't untill we make the change in recruiting .
The biggest concern for me is and IMO has always been obvious is that we are a season or two away from starting to see a real decline in the performance of players on our list we drafted , due to age and injuries .

We knew he was clueless last year in the games where we were beaten. looked like a deer in the headlights, Who forgets the capitulation against the team that finished 9 th?

That game should have been iced but when malthouse made some changes dimma wouldn't or couldn't.

Has NFI all talk too many mates,too many barometers, too many favourites, FFS how hampson, Thomas craplain, get games is beyond me.

No. Just give us new hope and life. We are dispirited and rudderless C'mon Benny be brave and save 70k fans who have saved the club for 32years

I agree our club is too scared to move on based on its poor history with coaches,but as I've said all year it will come down to members response and reaction

I wouldnt be too sure that Dimma gets to go around again.... our memberships will cop a flogging next season ... especially the membership upgrades.... If the club wants to ignore that for another season than good luck.

Rusty Ben and Pen are finance managers not football field operation managers the only way DH goes if he resigns or if the club is set to lose big money if he stays
They have egg on their face for DH extension and they will back themselves that it will turn IMO

We all could see this and this is why he should have been on notice this year and more support should have been granted to him
Or even better I would have given Chocco the job bc he's struggled in the box for five yrs. repeated errors and he failed to develop as a coach
The Papa Damian approach was never going to fruition into a legacy of greatness
A team full of duds retreads sooks and an incompetent coaching staff is our outcome
