Malthouse still feels more like a Tiger than a Magpie or Eagle (West Australian)
« on: July 13, 2011, 05:39:59 PM »
But the triple premiership coach admitted he still felt more like a Tiger than a Magpie or an Eagle after playing 121 games for Richmond, including his defensive role in the 1980 premiership.

"I've walked into the Richmond rooms three or four times in the last 10 years to sign memorabilia for the football club and somehow I felt at home because I played there and I bled there," Malthouse said.

"I think it's a lot to do with the blood, sweat and the tears and walking back into those Richmond rooms. People accept you there because you played there.

"I wasn't the Collingwood coach walking in there, I was a former premiership player. It's funny how you feel it.

He would deliver what so many before him have pretended to.

KB pushed hard for him 2 years ago.
Bloody timing is everything  >:(  I'm good for sticking the course with Hardwick but if Mick stays at Collingwood next year and Dimma doesn't deliver then make it happen Tiges !

It's all done to destabilise us.
A few years back he said he wouldn't come to an RFC function because he felt it wasn't right b/c he was coaching Collingwood.
Funny we have a few heavy defeats and we are no longer talking finals and the print media are regurgitating these old chestnuts. For years it was Sheeds now its Mick.
Let the romance go its tiresome.

In fairness to Mick, he was actually asked this earlier in the season on "The Game Plan" I think it was and he said at the time, there is an incredible bond between blokes who play in Premierships together and because of that he feels more like a Tiger than any of the others..

All about timing, timing has never been right.

Make him an offer right now and see if he actually means it.

He doesnt mean it, there's no doubt about it.

If he did, he'd be poaching us, and that ain't happening.

The players seem to like Hardwick so I reckon we gotta stick with him for next year no matter who's available.  He's selling his message to the fans and media really well. Better than Wallace even !
 Thing is though ,  if we're in this same position at the same time next year the message will be wearing real thin and if Mick's sitting in an office somewhere in the Lexus centre and Roos is still coaching 8 year olds then ?
