Well Ramps, if they do that, then i've only got one thing to say to Brett Deledio, and that is "get out now" because you are about to waste another two to three years of your footballing life.

1) Who would you rather have as coach, and why?
2) Why do you think Rawlings would be a poor coach?

Ummm, yeah.
Rawlings has done nothing to suggest he is incapable of doing the job.
I bet you're a Sheedy wannabe.

I would have been a supporter of Malthouse as coach. Sheedy was never the coach for mine. Now that Malthouse is gone, Id prefer to see Damien Hardwick get it, Allan Richardson as 2nd choice, with Ken Hinkley 3rd.

Rawlings seems way to much mates with the players. Being mates with players is good as long as things are going well or theres nothing on the line- like the last few games in a season, but coaches being mates with players becomes a problem when things start to go sour. I have said this before, someone like Hardwick should be appointed and Jade should be given a new job as head of player development. Ive always supporterd a soccer style academy for AFL clubs for players under 23. Give Rawlings that job and if he wants to coach Coburg he can do that as well. That seems like a win win situation to me.

Mates with the players? Ask Bowden, Simmonds, Tuck, Rance etc if he is trying to be their mates!

I'm not interested either (unless he goes through the process and comes up trumps - can't see that happening) and I think the most relevant quote in your post was "Many rumours of disquiet between the senior Bomber players and the coach."  You have to ask why.

Typical Richmond supporter. Always backing the players over the coach.... even at other clubs 

 

In all seriousness,  I ask why because if he can't get the playing group playing for him then his days as a senior coach are numbered, regardless of who's fault it is.

Schwarz on SEN just now has jumped on the Knights rumour. He started off by saying like Benny Gale another former Tiger may be heading back to Punt Rd. He then says he's heard Knights has been or will be interviewed by Richmond as part of their coaching process.

Dermie then added that he's heard Knights had enemies .... make that major differences .... with others at Essendon on principles. If the above rumour is true it'll say more about Essendon than Richmond. If he has a contract but wants out then you'd let him walk.

Don't forget the new CEO
I'm very happy with Benny Gale's appointment, however I'll be more than happy to have every one of those listed above to not be at the club. Would rather Hardwick than Knights, it'd be kinda poetic I reckon.

[TigerLand]

Yeah should have added Benny but our last 4 club captains are all now at the helm of the club, think Hogg was the one before Free.

Kinda puts to rest that the club has no soul thanks Caro. Gee Footy Classified will be good tonight.
