Not me - glad to see the back of him tbh - hope GC also invest in good assistants because he's only ever been as good as they are... :shh

AT can you confirm the main reason he went up there was because he missed coaching BEllis? :shh

Dimma clearly doesn’t like anything too old or slow. Jumps ship at first sign of aging.

Likes them young and vibrant with a tinge of carrot.  :shh

I think he’ll be at Gold Coast next season.  :rollin

I thinks I tipped this correctly.  :clapping  :rollin :clapping

probably just a guess based on the law of probabilities being weighted heavily in that favour

I'm really disappointed how it's all transpired.

I'll always love Dimma for what he did for us. How can you not.

Do I respect the way he's gone about it, absolutely not.

Did he lie about thing, probably. Does it matter not really.

Do I wish him luck, absolutely not, in particular at the expense of us.

Will it overshadow or ruin out dynasty, absolutely not.

I can't see it working to be honest. No coach has two successful stints. You can count them on your hands. Malthouse and Matthews only ones. And they had success over generations. The game evolved and successful coaches keep continuing the ways of the past. Dimma chaos ball is done. The stand rule, 666, bigger goal square all was for that purpose to evolve the game away from it. It's why we've dropped away. Unless Dimma comes up with the next latest trend in AFL and makes GC players more elite at it than others, can't see it working. It's also probably last roll of dice for GC. If Dimma can't get them finals in 6 years they may as well fold em.

each to their own, i personally dont gaff. Good luck to him. We wont be competing with them the way we are going.

The only exception to this would be if he prized dusty over there and we got dudded somehow

Burn out my butt.. Dimma was a great coach for us, but as a man he isn't so great. His actions over the past few years have proved he is a man that cannot be trusted.
He is a liar and full of 💩.
I hope karma gets him

Dimma is just a man nothing more nothing less. We all have our good and bad points
I’m soo grateful for the absolute delight  he’s given me the past few years, watching his  team go about it’s business in what I thought  was a wonderful way , in the manic way they played and the way they honoured each other. All of society can take something from the “Richmond man”
Who by the way will live on and prosper judging by what is coming out from Gale, Balmy etc
