Your club's coaching structures

March 11, 2017
IT SHAPES as a season of change at the coaching level this season with a number of senior positions under intense scrutiny.
A group of assistants are part of the 2017 intake for the AFL's exclusive coaching accreditation course.
Check out each club's full coaching panel below, including those best placed to take the leap into a senior job - should one become available.
RICHMOND
Senior coach: Damien Hardwick
Head of coaching and football performance: Tim Livingstone
Forwards: Justin Leppitsch
Defence: Ben Rutten
Midfield spread and ball movement: Blake Caracella
Midfield stoppages: Andrew McQualter
Development coaches: Craig McRae (VFL senior coach), Xavier Clarke, Ryan Ferguson
Opposition: All line coaches
Richmond jumped at the opportunity to bring Justin Leppitsch back to the club because of his ability to break down a skill in the game and teach it effectively. In Blake Caracella, they have a new man in charge of ball movement and he has worked on implementing quicker transition. The former Geelong assistant was one of the inaugural Level Four graduates and could eventually contend for senior roles. Ben Rutten is also on the path to bigger things and is considered a rising star in the industry after being awarded the AFLCA's Phillip Walsh Scholarship in 2016. Andrew McQualter was promoted to an assistant role in the off-season and rounds out the four AFL assistants, who have divided the 17 opposition clubs for forward scouting duties. All coaches are managed by Tim Livingstone, with the Tigers' senior program mirrored by the VFL coaches.

Is it TIm Livingstones first season with us?
Hope he hasnt been there the last 5 years.
Still doesnt really matter who is coaching if our list management is no good....and it hasnt been fully addressed from what i can make out, 1 change and that was an internal promotion??

Think Tim has been there for over 5 years

Can't believe he is still there TBH.

I can....
Our senior coach has been here 8 years without a finals win and he still has a 2 year contract.

Well, we all know that was a ridiculous call from Benny Gale....

Tim Livingstone joined Richmond at the end of 2008 as our Player Development Manager.
He was promoted about three or four years ago to the Head of Coaching position.
Presumably cause he did such a great job between 2009 and 2013 as Development Manager.

Sounds like this bloke is one of our major negative issues, or am I out of line here RFC Gurus?

surprised we didnt win a flag

Personally found it hard to warm up to Tim. He is just not the sort of guy that I would have as my friend. That is a very personal taste though. The thing is a few of my friends that have met him feel the same way so I'm not alone. That's not to say he doesn't do a good job because it is hard to know unless you are in the inner sanctum of the club. Just comes across as very assertive and a bit like "my opinion is right so you are all wrong" type of person that maybe won't take on board someone else's opinion. I'll probably meet him more this year so I might update my view on him as the year goes by. It maybe that I have got him all wrong.
-
hard to know if he has done a good job?
What do you think mate? seriously
same goes for all of them who are still there.

Obviously if you purely look at results, he has been putrid. I was just giving him the benefit because I do not know his exact job description and how he has fulfilled his duties.

Don't think it surprising that people you consider friends, so obviously share similar ideals etc., would not see him as a guy you'd have as a friend.

A couple of them a very different to me. But since you know all of this I won't continue. Thanks for that input. It's added a lot to the discussion.

IT COULDN'T possibly be an issue as RFC had an external review last year and everyone concerned would have been interviewed and appraised both personally
and as perceived by their peers.
:snidegrin
In fact it was such a non issue that it was not even deemed necessary to share the review with members. :shh

The review was solid and extremely thorough. I have allegedly been given special access to the transcripts. Here is one.
External Review Interviewer: So Mr Livingston, how do you think you've performed in your role?
Tim Livingston: I think it's obvious that I have outperformed in all areas and my KPI's are reflective of this.
ERI: So you think you deserve an extension on your current contract?
TL: Mate, the club would be crazy not to keep me on.
ERI: Very well then Mr Livingston and thank you for your valuable time.
TL: No problem at all and please, call me Tim.

Obviously my point is that you and your mates sharing a similar opinion on a guy doesn't carry much weight. Just like giving your opinion on whether you like him or not doesn't add to the discussion whether he's doing his job or not. Didn't think I'd have to explain that ::)

Disagree strongly with this. The guy is in a man management position. He must have the capacity to relate to different personalities. If we find him hard to relate to, that's not a good start for him.

maybe he just doesnt have time for people who needlessly quote posts when replying to them?

Thanks for that needless post.....
When you are on the move with your phone, you sometimes don't have the luxury of editing out other posts.
Why don't you just but out of others discussions unless you can contribute meaningfully to them. And I don't mean whingeing and whining like a little immature child either.
-
strange that you knew that it was directed at you without me quoting your post.
Yet you still dont get it.
You clutter up pages and pages with unnecessary quoting, making it an absolute nightmare to read on a phone, having to scroll through large amounts of quoted posts, often only for a 1 or two sentence reply. The mods have asked for this not to happen yet you continued to do so.
It shows a blatant disregard for others reading the forum, and for the wishes of the mods.
It is unnecessary and selfish

There were only 4 quotes. Are you that lazy you can't see past them? I'm on my phone and its no problem whatsoever. I'm not sure why you have so much of an issue.
People like you are the reason why a lot of posters don't post here anymore. You whinge about everything and people can't be bothered coming back and having to put up with ridiculous complaints.

Actually what he is complaining about is a reason a few posters don't post here (i.e. wading through the crap). I think you're missing the main point which is that the mods have asked for it to be stopped yet you continue to do it...

How did you know my post was directed at you?
-
A lot of female poster have also left this site.
I don't think it is due to the endless complaints or repeat quoting though.

the female posters rode away on unicorns, didnt they?
What was the thread where people just quoted and quoted even though they were replying to the immediate preceding post that became a nightmare to read? you had to scroll for ages just to read 1 or 2 sentences. The mods came in asking it to stop and stated that was the sort of thing that caused people to stop reading the forum, of which i can understand.
why is it so hard to understand that if you are replying to the immediate preceding post there is generally no need to quote that post.

Good point, I don't know
-
I don't mind the quoting as it allows me to read bitch brawls in one spot.
-
I thought the topic on this thread was "Your club's coaching structures"? :sleep
-
No, the topic is about excessive quoting and it was hijacked at the start by football talk.

I love the irony of this post but feel like Chucky is baiting Al which upsets me.
