Well, at least on the one measurement that matters above all else...

Do it. Failing that ive seen suggestions of Bomber Thompson and Paul Roos also. Any one of these three would be excellent additions. Stay away from Dew, Ratten, or Tudor. You dont need any of these "untried" coaches, what you need is an experienced coach, who's had success ages ago (or in the case of RTB, not at all).
New coaches suck. You guys dont want to end up like us and Bolton. You guys want to be the next Freo, *, or Melbourne. Things are working well for them and you could be the next them!![]()

Can't see anyway that Ross isn't at Freo next year. I don't think the Dockers can afford to pay out a five year contract at what they are paying him.Would Lyon be so bad for us? He may be out of a job at the end of the year.
He can get teams to gell and play good football. I don't care if its dour and boring, as long as its successful. Winning is never boring. Given our youth, he wouldn't need to do a runner for 6 or so years.![]()

Untried bloke straight out of the media?
Zoink! Good God, i don't think I'll sleep now. Please no.Unless we take over the contract...
succession plan, that we we don't have to pay out Bucks
Ha, I would take Melbourne's position over Carltons any day of the week.New coaches suck. You guys dont want to end up like us and Bolton. You guys want to be the next Freo, *, or Melbourne. Things are working well for them and you could be the next them!![]()
He seems to be the one bloke that actually rates Buckley.......Unless his taking the pisssuccession plan, that we we don't have to pay out Bucks
Call me crazy, but maybe Malthouse could fix things?
You're confident. Three wins in a row will do that, I guess.
I'll give that a 6.5, mostly for the effort.
Ratten's not an untried coach you fool. Have you forgotten what your shit stain of a club did to him?
Im answering you collectively not because I was trolling you but because you're still thinking old guard. The days of poaching a coach who won a flag a decade ago to fix your club are gone.
Ross lyon? Whats he done. Seriously.
Thompson? He was #eco even when he was at the bombers.
Paul Roos? That guy is ******* past it. He's in the process of handing over. He wont coach anothrt club.
Get with the times man. Or not. Sign a has-been, like what we did with Malthouse. Or what we did with Pagan. Keep that boys club mentality and sign Maxwell. I don't give a flying.
Just stay away from Ratts. You cant have him.
Cool. I don't care.
Nice. You must be apart of the playing group.
Think at this point it would actually be a good idea to listen to a Carlton fan when they talk about chasing quick fixes etc. They know better than most the pitfalls of misjudging your list and going for a coach based on reputation.

Would be happy to give Ratten a go anyone from a successful club
