Ex-Hawks coach tipped for Tigers
Greg Denham | August 11, 2008
FORMER Hawthorn coach Peter Schwab has emerged as the leading contender to move back to Richmond as the Tigers' general manager of football operations.
Schwab has been targeted by the recruiting firm hired by the Tigers to present a short list of candidates in the next few weeks to replace Greg Miller, who was axed from Punt Road last month.
Schwab worked at Richmond for three years as an assistant coach, in 1992 under Allan Jeans, and for the following two seasons under John Northey.
In less than five seasons as Hawthorn coach between 2000 and 2004, Schwab-coached teams played in five finals matches with a best finish of fourth in 2001 when the Hawks were beaten in a preliminary final by Essendon.
Schwab played 171 games with Hawthorn, including three premierships before retiring in 1991.
He was a premiership team-mate of Richmond coach Terry Wallace in 1983 and again in 1986. Wallace is contracted at Punt Road until the end of next season.
For the past few years Schwab, 47, has worked in administration for the AFL, with the past 16 months as chief executive of AFL Victoria, which runs the VFL and TAC Cup competitions.
He is a cousin of Cameron Schwab, the recently departed Fremantle chief executive who has also been linked to the Richmond position.
Cameron Schwab has firmed as Melbourne's next chief executive after the Demons were informed a week ago that Geelong chief operating officer Stuart Fox would not be applying for the job.
Peter Schwab yesterday declined to comment on his intentions, but confirmed he had been approached for the Richmond position and he fits the criteria recently listed by Tigers president Gary March.
March said last month that Miller's successor should be a "contemporary" person with the necessary experience to have an immediate input into decisions made about drafting, trading and possible further changes to the Tigers' football department.
Also fitting that bill is former Melbourne coach Neale Daniher, who has also been offered a similar role with West Coast.
Another former high-profile AFL administrator sure to be sounded out is current Athletics Australia chief executive Danny Corcoran. Corcoran held the position of general manager of football operations at both Essendon and Melbourne.
Speaking from Beijing yesterday, Corcoran said he had never ruled out a return to football at the elite level.
"But, I'll assess my options when I return to Australia, if there are any," he said.

So Pelchen is going to leave Hawthorn on the eve of premiership window? Apart from him being mad lol at least the RFC would be chasing after someone with a proven record at two previous clubs.
Caller and email on 3aw has Peter Schwab as footy manager and Hardwick as coach.
Sounds more like people wishing for things to come true. Have a 100 guesses and if one comes true boast about being right all along lol.

Greg Denham said this morning on KB's show that the Slade group has also spoken to Peter Rhode.
-
Good to see we are speaking to such highly credentialed candidates who have had success follow them wherever they go.
Seriously, if these are the calibre of people we are considering to take over from Miller as a "younger" and "more contempary" option, then what was the bloody point of making a change?
Aim higher for Geez sake, Schwab & Rohde, give me strength.
-
Pelchen would be a good get but they would need to get him before the October trade period begins. The only other person is Neil Balme. The rest I would not consider.
-
Caro says Peter Schwab is in the running but Neil Daniher isn't interested in the job.
-
Rohde
Schwab what next Gerard Neesham and Tim Watson coming to the club.
Its obvious we can't lure anyone of any decent substance to the club so we therefore recruit enthusiastic applicants who have failed in one capacity or another at a footy club and are more than happy to keep on living their own little dream and work with a footy club regardless of poor results. We are the half way house of the AFL.

Perhaps I should apply
Seems like they are desperate and I'd come cheap. Would only command demand $250k a season ;D
Most of all I fit the main criteria
I am a Richmond person :rollin

Why not take it 1 step further. We are all Richmond people on here so how about a total cleanout of the board to be replaced by a cross-representation of OER members. And I would make live coverage of all board meetings compulsory to help improve our brand's marketability!!! Think about the engrossing viewing - healthy, vigorous, balanced debate around the table between Jack, Bentleigh, Moi, Monk, 65, Ramps, HT, Daniel, MT, Brackets etc. I reckon we would be on a ratings winner that could easily surpass "Tuesdays With Terry".
;D ;D ;D

Can I be Chief Masseuse?

All depends - masseuse of the players or masseuse of the new board members?

long live the revolution ;D but unless Blaisee is on it as well then there may be some refusals. The reality is with Blaisee on the board, the jousting between him and jacko would be fantastic, they could fight whilst the rest of us eat food and drink beers ;D
