i remember talk that Northey left because he wanted to trade out some high profile players and was told no.. So he took the brisbane offer.

He'll be sacked if we come 12th :D

Go back to predicting crop harvests Nostrafarmus. He is currently surpassing all KPI's and has 100% commitment from the players and the club. If we do come 12th, other heads will roll before Dimma's. Probably the most liked and respected coach since Tommy Hafey.  :thumbsup

Swooper says hi

Catch him at the Charcoal Chicken did you M? He only coached us for 3 years.  ::)

When Hardwick makes finals then I'll listen.

Until then it's swooper for me followed by Frawley.

Frawley  bwahaha :wallywink  He should have had us in the finals a lot more. he took us from a finals team to the bottom

Was a good coach though. It's not his fault the list was poo

How about Balmey?

In all seriousness, if Dimma and co fall over the next couple of years, I expect Balme will see out his football days in some capacity at Richmond.
He sure didn't shy away from the idea when he was recently asked about in on SEN. Kept his options well open.

I hope that doesn't eventuate though as it will mean Hardwick has been a success..

I reckon part of the reason why big bad Mal got away with what happened to Northey was because many of us supporters saw him as the new graeme Richmond,and that got us excited,For GR stood for all that was great about Richmond .Unfortunately big bad mal was hardly GR,not even coming remotely close.

i reckon you are right Gigantor. The Sun even ran an article about how Mal Brown was the next Grahame Richmond in waiting.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Was two wasnt it, the maggot left with a year of his contract remaining ::)

he walked out because the club would not extend his contract and there was a big push, headed by Mal Brown, to have him replaced.

Northey wanted some job security and had earned it. Mal Brown stirred the pot, caused northey to walk, then slunk back into the primevil swamp from whence he crawled.

The maggot in this saga was Brown, not Northey.
Northey held the club to ransom after being offered a bagful of loot by the lions. He was contracted and was a maggot to negotiate with more than a year to run on his contract. He was a found out in the end as a kook and rightfully sacked.  ::)

So didn't making a prelim justify some sort of job security especially how the club hasn't played finals for 12 or 13 yrs back in 95.

He was robbed no matter how you sugar coat it

Robbed, he walked out on a contract and he was a maggot for doing so, whatever way you wanna sugarcoat it :lol

why did you back mal brown in all this BJ?
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."
