Our new line/assistant coach?

[Hard Roar Tiger]

Was hoping Spud could return the prodigal son

[Yeahright]

Maybe a good thing hes gone then   

Depends, in my mind offensive and forward coach are different roles. Our offensive wasn't all that bad through the backline and the midfield, forward is where we were let down. Wonder Richmond see them as different roles

it will be some no-name stooge

Some bloke from local footy named Ken, Colin, Wayne, Ian or Bruce no doubt.

Leppa was actually offence coach this year.

Who is our defence line coach then, RFCO?


DAMIEN HARDWICK – Senior Coach
BRENDON LADE – Midfield Stoppage Coach
ROSS SMITH – Defensive Analyst
DANNY DALY – Midfield Spread Coach
MARK WILLIAMS – Forward Coach
MARK 'Choco' WILLIAMS – Development Coach
GREG MELLOR – Development Coach
TIM CLARKE – Development Coach

We're not replacing Leppitsch ...

--------------------------

“We’ll not directly replace him (Leppitsch).  We felt as though we’ve got good experience in our coaching group and, certainly with Mark ‘Choco’ Williams coming in this time last year, that added to that,” said Richmond’s General Manager of Football, Dan Richardson, on ‘Trade Radio’.

“We needed to resource our VFL team next year and we’ve been working hard on that . . .

“Development is a big part of any club and will only become a bigger part, going forward, particularly at Richmond.

“So, what our strategy will be, is to appoint a couple of development coaches.

“We’ve announced the appointment of Andrew McQualter (former St Kilda and Gold Coast player) as one of those development coaches and we’re currently in the process of talking to a couple of others.  We hope to make an announcement on that in the near future.”

?Mark Harvey. Must be a mate of Dimmas.......just rejected the Essendon senior job.

Is calling someone a "development coach" a tight arse way of appointing an assistant coach?

More like they've promoted Choco without saying the words and are now going to backfill behind him with some cheaper options.

He's gone back to Perth

His family (wife & kids) remained there when he went to Brisbane

I would like someone like Leigh Tudor been at cats and swans both successfull clubs and perfect for us to learn from his experience.

He's off to Nought if he doesn't get the Essendon gig.

On field getting Dal Santo and I reckon they are smokeys for top 4 next year and a few more chances to improve that average losing margin of 80 points in their last 10 finals.
