Exactamundo and whilst he is a good leader at St Kilda he aint a leader as an assistant because he is untried and therefore he would be subservant to those higher up the pecking order that remain.

We need to attract good assistants. Leppa was good and whilst Brissy is a basket case atm he as a former player and he is in the for the long haul.

How many RFC assistants have gone on to coach their own sides in recent history. Says it all.

Need blokes with balls not blokes that were once told they'll never amount to anything and here they are joining the roll call of blokes heaping misery on the RFC.

I'm pro Lenny.

I'm not against him but Blair Hartley, Mark Williams (not Chocco) and Danny Daly need to get the heave ho. We need new blood but experienced blood also from successful clubs and systems.

We are at the stage Spud was in 2003-04 when we were attracting mega coaches like Wayne Brittain as assistants. We are one season away from the beginning of another RFC false dawn. :help

Lenny Hayes has been a revered figure in football for some time, that's generally a good start when looking for qualities in a prospective coach. We missed Paul Roos when he retired from playing, Garry Lyon....this may be a master stroke succession plan , go Benny go  :shh

BTW why would The Hairy Malaka come to us he had mapped out his post footy career in the media all along from when he was a player and why would Roos at that time leave the Swans and the sanctuary of being the next in line to the Sydney job and come to a basket case like us.
FFS even Sheeds used us as a bargaining chip to further his career at Essendon.
Terry Wallace another mercenary who left the Dogs for the Swans and when things didn't work out there $$$$ and hello RFC worse off than what we were under Spud.
Need some existing respected assistants to come to us.
Whilst Hayes has some wonderful qualities we need experienced respected assistants not just blokes looking for a foothold in the AFL assistant coaching fraternity.

I may have confused things in my ramblings, what I meant is we just missed a couple of key figures as they've stepped straight out of playing, made a big play for both Lyon and Roos before they went onto do anything at all....nows our chance with a similar type in Hayes, hope it turns out this time

Would be a real coup by the club if they could get him across but like most things with the RFC they just seem to good to be true. :help

You guys are delusional if you think Ling would come to our club and even more delusional if you think dear old Damian would allow it. This would open up the for Ling to take over so it won't happen not this year not ever.

RFC have no brains so expect more monkeyball rejects like Jetta or Gartlett, and unsuccessful assistants. To be honest I'm surprised we weren't the first club to have a female assistant. Would have fitted in nicely with the blue oyster bar factory we are assembling.

What we should aim for is Ratten, Ling and Bomber. Forget these other amateurs who have no idea about success and are largely unproven like our coach who will be unemployed in 12 mths

Cameron Ling’s handling of a Mick Malthouse spray proves he is equipped to handle coaching

JON ANDERSON HERALD SUN
JULY 15, 2014 8:00PM SHARE
   
RICHMOND has entered the race to secure the services of Cameron Ling who is expected to announce shortly he will forego a promising media career and enter the coaching ranks.

He has already been spoken to by several Victorian-based clubs, with Melbourne, the Tigers and Geelong at the head of the queue for his services to become an assistant coach.

Those clubs would have noted with interest his reaction to a vintage verbal Mick Malthouse spray at the SCG last Saturday night

l still have nightmares from being at the Dome & Frawley making our side stand out on the ground after the game clapping their retiring #3 Burke off the ground after a 100+ point mauling. Its burnt into my skull to my grave.
They are all spuds from there & have no success. Please please dont make have anymore nightmares of that day  ;D

Get a real assistant coach that has coached a team & had experience at controlling players & getting the best from them or off with there heads.  ;D

But we did that this year, we bought in a retired premiership player from a successful club in Max Bailey (clearly fits your criteria) and a lot of people on this forum have ridiculed him and the decision to bring him in.

So it would appear it is a very selective requirement indeed

It's a box to tick but there are others.

I've got no idea if Bailey is any good or not but he doesn't jump out as being a great leader.

Post by: The Big Richo on July 16, 2014, 02:05:32 PM
It's a combination of things.

At the moment we have two club leaders in Hardwick and Gale from vastly different backgrounds.

Hardwick has knowledge of what it takes to have success but isn't a good leader.

Gale has leadership but no experience in creating success.

Some individuals can overcome this and create their own culture ie Roos, but it is very rare.

Hayes and Ling are both good leaders but only Ling is proven to be able to create success.

Hayes was a leader in a side that had the best season ever and still couldn't win the flag.

Assuming their skills and knowledge levels are the same then Ling is a far superior prospect.

Please no more St-Kilda people at RFC it will be destroyed forever.
l still have nightmares from being at the Dome & Frawley making our side stand out on the ground after the game clapping their retiring #3 Burke off the ground after a 100+ point mauling. Its burnt into my skull to my grave.
They are all spuds from there & have no success. Please please dont make have anymore nightmares of that day  ;D

Get a real assistant coach that has coached a team & had experience at controlling players & getting the best from them or off with there heads.  ;D

Vote no spuds at Punt road  ;D

Cameron Ling’s handling of a Mick Malthouse spray proves he is equipped to handle coaching

JON ANDERSON HERALD SUN

RICHMOND has entered the race to secure the services of Cameron Ling who is expected to announce shortly he will forego a promising media career and enter the coaching ranks.

He has already been spoken to by several Victorian-based clubs, with Melbourne, the Tigers and Geelong at the head of the queue for his services to become an assistant coach.

Those clubs would have noted with interest his reaction to a vintage verbal Mick Malthouse spray at the SCG last Saturday night

It's a combination of things.

At the moment we have two club leaders in Hardwick and Gale from vastly different backgrounds.

Hardwick has knowledge of what it takes to have success but isn't a good leader.

Gale has leadership but no experience in creating success.

Some individuals can overcome this and create their own culture ie Roos, but it is very rare.

Hayes and Ling are both good leaders but only Ling is proven to be able to create success.

Id prefer Aaron Hamill from StKilda he was a worker. Hayes is a talent, sometimes talented players make good coaches but often not. Malcolm Blight being the exception, Mick Malthouse or Kevin Sheedy being the rule.

What your title is and what you do can be two different things though.
How many development coaches in the AFL sit on the bench and help with coaching on game day?
How many are senior coaches that won a premiership?
I guess what I am trying to say is that if we get another senior coach, Choco may walk as he may feel that some of what he enjoys doing is then taken away from him. Just MHO.

Hayes unsure about assistant coaching role next year

Nathan Schmook

August 26, 2014 7:10 PM



RETIRING St Kilda veteran Lenny Hayes says he has not made any decision on a potential move into coaching next season and he will weigh up his options after his send-off game against Adelaide on Sunday.

Hayes, who has completed a number of coaching courses, including David Wheadon's elite Next Coach Program, is expected to attract significant interest if he decides to pursue an assistant role in 2015.

The champion midfielder said he had spoken to the Saints about staying at the club in some capacity next season, while North Melbourne and Richmond are also pushing for his services. 

"I don't think I've ever said that I wanted to go and coach next year," Hayes told 3AW on Tuesday night.   

"But [it's assumed] because I've ticked off a few of those courses and it's been mentioned in a few of those conversations.

"The Saints have said they'd be keen for me to stay on in some capacity, and I think I will stay involved in football.

"I think I just need to get through this week and then sit down over the next two weeks and just have that clear path about where I'm going to be heading."

Lenny Hayes has ruled out coaching in 2015 and is yet to decide if he will pursue it as a career path at all after retiring from St Kilda this season.

So a network has signed him.
The most plausible explanation given the $ would need to be good to decline working as a decent type of assistant coach.

Of all the current players, I'd want Luke Hodge as an assistant coach. The guy coaches on the ground all the time as he structures up the team at every opportunity.

Gun.



Get it done Tiges (when he's available)!

Sack Dimma for Hodgey. Doesn't need the apprenticeship as he knows the Hawks gameplan which is similar to the Tigers
