Richmond Get Michael Malthouse ...

[WilliamPowell]

of course one could ask what happens if we are still bottom 4 in 2012.  even more pertinant would be what if we are still bottom 4 at the end of 2013, personally my assumption is  i think this scenario highly likely.

Agree claw one could ask that

But I think this carry on about getting Malthouse back to the club is an over reaction by supporters (me included) to a bad 4-6 weeks by a very young and list.

Everyone knew when Hardwick was appointed it was going to be a long slow road. Strange I thought most had accepted it

But now it seems on the back of some good form in the 1st half of the season and now some extremely poor form over the last month and a bit that people are starting to think the worlds about to cave in again, we are are in freefall and only Mick can save us... please let's get some perspective on things

Reality is Hardwick 18 months into a 3 year contract and he deserves to be cut some slack because this was never going to be a 12 month re-build and then finals. Has he made mistakes? Yep he has but he isn't the first and he wont be the last 

I just think people are over reacting especially in light of where are right now is exactly where the vast majority thought we would be 18 months in

forget his coaching-the guy KNOWS how a successful club should be run.

Get him there to do the Balmey job.
He says he still feels part of the joint and whether that's BS or not,WGAF?
He's clearly obtainable.
Imagine the discipline issues he could iron out,of which we have many.

that has merit, provided the coach didn't feel he had to be looking over his shoulder.

That is not out of the question when put that way.
Excellent post Brackets.

Goes without saying Al and Mick has to also know in his heart of hearts that his coaching days are up and won't ever want to do it again for it to work. Perhaps a pre nup signing beforehand to make sure this marriage lasts the distance.

It's a maturity thing.
A coach with a complex need not stay. Look at B Scott at the Roos with Parko.

LOL OX you crack me up.  Im imagining players betting on games...raping women...bashing people....car wrecks...  Far be it for me to criticise but I don't think discipline has been a strong point at scumwood.  I don't think the coach has anything to do with it either, its down to individuals.

I hear you Owl but Dimma seems lost when it comes to defence. We just get murdered on the rebound and are 17th for clearances in the AFL and it's embarrassing. Effing GC babies destroyed us in clearances and defensive discipline ? WTF is that about ?  Mick would sort that out straight up

[The Big Richo]

Was interesting watching them train the other day and the only two times Malthouse got involved was during a tackling drill and when they were doing 'pattern of play' stuff (which we used to call circle work  ) Malthouse would stop the drill and they would set up for a boundary throw in or bounce and he would spend a few mintues talking to them.

Easy to see what parts of the game he rates highest.
