Summary on 3aw tonight with Caro, Healy and Russell....
* Healy said 2 weeks ago Jade would have been one of the favourites but the last 2 weeks would've hurt his chances. Caro replied that's why she's said all along that Jade was never one of the favourites.
* Healy thinks Hardwick would be favourite now. Caro was hesistant about his favouritism.
* Caro said heard Ken Hinkley was pretty impressive in his interview. Alan Richardson the sleeper unsung performer due to his low profile in the media
* Timeframe - Caro said she wouldn't be surprised ifthis time next week (Tuesday night) we'll know who the new coach at Richmond is.
* Whispers has Rawlings "no", Richardson "firming".
* Knights was impressed by Richardson (then Coburg coach) when Spud dropped him. Knights as coach then tried to get him to Essendon but Richardson wanted to remain loyal to Collingwood where at the time he was assistant coach. The loyalty factor impressed Knighter even more and so when the contract ended he convinced Richardson to join Essendon as Knighter's assistant.
* Caro reckons Jade's "club culture" comments won't hurt his chances. What will hurt him more is the way the team has played. Caro said there's a selfishness that has pervaded that club for a long time. Healy said there wasn't a culture problem at the Club against Essendon. It's a preparation problem rather than a cultural one.
* Healy said Joel should've been gone at the end of last year. Caro said he almost didn't get another year. No new coach will give Joel a new contract in response to a caller's question. The club won't want to lose Joel entirely as he has many skills. He's just finished as a player. Healy said Joel could have got a game at another club (Carl, Geel, Haw) 8 weeks ago if there was a midyear draft. Caro strongly said Joel is finished and changing jumpers midyear would destroy loyalty in footy. Healy couldn't see the difference between changing clubs midyear compared to the end of the year.

The Rawlings NO is good news
The Richardson news whilst not my preferred is acceptable. Hardwick or Richardson would make good coaches IMHO.

Nah Ive always said my preference is for Hardwick to get the job and if not then Richardson is 2nd. Hinkley would be my 3rd choice and Jade my 4th choice.
-
I would be very surprised if it is known next week
2nd round interviews, then final candidates present to the board - wont happen in a week
Unless we abandon the "process"

But Richardson doesn't meet your criteria or does having coached a flag in local footy count?
If so be careful with your criteria ;) ;D

Im just investigating as we speak ;D and if it doesnt work out how I want ... Ill do what all Richmond supporters would do ... Id change the criteria to fix the result :lol

It was said that if there was one stand out the process could be very quick, compared to if there were 3 where the final stage could be an extended affair.
However I can't see us making an announcement until the end of round 22.
-
The club said many many weeks ago as I mentioned that the final decision would be announced within the final week of our last game and I think they look like following that time line. They stuffed up naming Wallace with Spud still in there and surely they couldn't dp it again... :whistle ::)
I am stilll going for Hardwick but Hinkley was my second choice, if Richardson gets it then so be it but I don't think Jade can cut it now.

We do not want Richardson, he has done nothing. Did he develop any of our kids when he was at Coburg, the answer to that is NO. He has a recommendation from Mathew Knights Who is a coaching nobody and who himself will not get another contract with the bombers. What did Richardson do at Collingwood? Nothing, they improved when he left.
It has to be Hardwick or Hinkley, both KNOW what it takes to win a premiership, Hardwick as a player and assistant coach, you can't buy that experience. It better be Hardwick.

"It has to be Hardwick or Hinkley, both KNOW what it takes to win a premiership"
What about Peter Sumich?
Think long and hard before you answer.

Hardwick is the standout because he has success at 3 different clubs, seen and experienced 3 different cultures, Sumich has only been at the Eagles. He is similar to Harvey, stayed to long at 1 club and not gone outside to see whate else he could learn.

Especially when Brendan Gale wants to be involved but doesn't start for another 2 weeks!

When he was coaching Coburg, Frawleys policy was to trade our picks and not select kids :rollin
That's why he couldn't develop any.

I'm so glad Peter Sumich is out of the running. He was one of the worst, most unreliable kicks in history (old hook foot I used to call him in his playing days.) If he'd had any hands-on work with our players, he'd have turned them into worse deliverers and finishers of the footy than they already are now. Incidentally, I still hold him personally responsible for the Mudpies winning the 1990 flag. He had the chance to put them in mothballs with a fairly simple shot for goal in an Elimination or Semi Final (can someone clarify this??) and fluffed it. Unforgiveable.

Now there is a true Richmomnd supporter. Holding a grudge against a bloke because if he kicked straight the scum would have missed another premiership.
Respect :thumbsup

Sorry, just a wild guess. It was his article in the Herald Sun telling Bucks to take on the Richmond job that set me thinking tho... :-\

Two time premiership player, and was in the box alongside John Worsfold when the Eagles won their last trophy. Knows the game inside out, and clearly has the experience and knowledge to be very successful.
In any case, he's now out of the Richmond race, but the criteria you use to judge Sumich as a coach is amusing to say the least.
His "hands on" work somehow didn't screw the Eagles playing group up.
That old hook foot bagged 111 goals in 1991 and was instrumental with the Eagles success. I could rant on about Richo and his boot. But i wont. We all love him.

Hopefully the source hasnt been on the sauce. If its true then irrespective of what has been written here on these boards over the last 2 weeks, irrespective of which candidate you think should get the job we should all be on board if this gets up. It would be another great Coup for our club.
And no I do not consider any of the 4 candidates currently being named as being a Huge coup.
As I said its just a rumour. I dont want to say more coz It may or may not be bulldust. Hopefully its true. It would be fantastic for our club IMHO.

If it is true it has Sheedy written all over it.

Hmm, something like a Leigh Matthews??
After just hearing on SEN about the Swans having some important announcements...
Paul Roos?
-
You're all way off the mark. It's a putsch - Tigermonk is taking over as match day coach with Moi as his Director of Coaching and Brackets as Fitness Co-ordinator. Should be interesting.
;D
-
;D good one smoke :thumbsup tell ya what l reckon l could coach better than Wallace & Rawlings
-
Im beginning to like richo as an option, fact he has coached own side and impressed speraks volumes tro me :thumbsup

Sheedy wouldn't be a coup given we could have had him 2 weeks ago.
Matthews yes.
Malthouse yes.
The only other ones are the unattainables - Thompson, Roos, Woosha, Lyon etc and none of those are going to come.
So I think Ramps' source is saying either Matthews or Malthouse.

Don't believe he's interested in being a senior coach again. That's what Lethal has said publicly anyway. Maybe tempt him more with a coaching director role - analyse and mentor our coaches.
eg:
Football Head Manager: Craig Cameron
Coaching Director: Matthews
Chief opposition and tactical analyst: Laidley
Senior Coach: Hardwick, Hinkley or Richardson?
Assistant Coaches: Campbell, ?, ?
Development Coaches: McRae, Johnson, Rawlings (Coburg)
Chief Recruiter: Francis Jackson
Fitness and conditioning staff: Clean out....

MT the fantasy was working till you stuffed up the DEVELOPMENT COACHES ::)

Only a big name like Matthews or someone with the reputation of Hardwick can do this job.

Yep only a big name.
After today, only Matthews, forget about the process.

Matthews has been uncertain of what he wants to do - Hardwick should be offered the job tonight IMHO.

Matthews has been very certain and clear in the fact he has no desire to continue coaching

Then we should be giving the job to Damien Hardwick this evening.
Having coached your own side is no real advantage as Rawlings has proved. The only thing that counts is AFL Premiership experience and Hardwick has that in spades.

Can I ask what has changed in the past 24 hours? They played the same today as they have been playing for the last 3 - 4 weeks (sorry, season). If anyone saw anything in today's game that they hadn't seen for most of the year then they are kidding themselves. Our new coach will have plenty of ability to work with and how he gets the utmost of that ability out of the playing group will be the important thing. Hardness for hardness sake is way overrated - the new coach's challenge will be to instill hardness in the players and that does not necessarily mean being hard yourself. Strength of character will be a key - don't confuse that with 'hardness'. As long as our process places this attribute high on the list then we will do ok, regardless of who it is.
