If we let Hardwick see out another year because it is the honourable thing to do and we come up short again, then the list will be two years older than it is now when someone new takes over. I will admit that I don't know who is available or who the best person is, but it's time for a proven match day coach. Who? Stuffed if I know. Bomber? Woosha? Dare I say Malthouse? I can't put my finger on where the improvement next year will come from. Players? Maybe. It's no secret we are trying but unfortunately for us they just don't want to come here. We actually have a good list though. Sure there are some spots that could be upgraded but we are far from having gaping holes. There is depth. Two years of bailing out of finals in humiliating fashion did nothing for the third time around. North have towelled us up 2 times in one season doing exactly the same thing (they did in round 23 too but we just had a better team to combat it). What we are doing is clearly not working. No disrespect to Hardwick but surely it's time to thank him for his services and roll the dice.
