Mick coached me at Balwyn, he would have to be the best coach tactically I  had in nearly 25 years playing footy. Still wouldn't want him at Tigerland. To seedy for me!

Also had great success at the Burnie Dockers leading them to 2 or 3 premierships in a row if I remember correctly.

But he's a country football coach, not an AFL coach.

Did ok at Gisborne too but if I remember correctly the knock on him there was that he was too much 'one of the boys' to ever make it at senior AFL level.

Yep, very much so.  Which was what made him so good at gelling a team and making them a successful unit.  I'm not to sure how he'd go taking all the Richmond boys down to the pub for a bet and a pint regularly.  ;D

Would be a valuable pick up but certainly in an independent position like WP has suggested.

Mick is a proven coach & its true his one of the guys who likes to have a good yarn & a pint.
He handles himself very well football wise & socialy & he would make a great coach anywhere & a top person.
Only problem he would have is getting to close to the players which aint a bad thing but Richmond need a tuff coach not a friend
