Adem Yze is our new coach [merged]

[Tigeritis™©®]

Is this our worst season in our history?

Not a great start to a career by Yze but not all his fault though probably a lot of factors in concert.

I personally would've loved to see more from the non-negotiable stats like excellent tacking technique and elite pressure or even have the fittest team.
These are things a team and a coaching staff can control from the moment preseason begins.

I'll try to be patient and will allow him time but I still want to see some improvement in those areas.

So correct me if I am wrong BUT, I believe this is now Yze’s first opportunity to clean out the dross from his coaching staff, medicos, and really put his own stamp on decisions/ trades etc??

Resigning Miller and Ryan is a massive failure

Tackling and fitness are a priority

Fair call

Jimmy Bartel said last night on that Footy Furnace program that although it's been a horrible season for Yze it has given him the opportunity to see what the young players on the list have got and offer. Given him the opportunity to work out their best positions, are they starting 22-23 or in the next bracket? He went on to say that because of that it can fast track the rebuild as we know what types we need to target in the draft etc

I'm not concerned at all for reasons I've already stated, but for the record;
- ageing list, retiring stars, many over the hill
- terrible injuries, thanks Meehan
- assist coaches to be addressed
- ongoing media + umpire hate

With a healthy list I could see us winning several more games but it is what it is.

On top of that ,  he needs to develop a game plan , I’m guessing Caricella will help in that area

Again behind the HUN's paywall

Gale: Big shift Yze must make to start Tigers’ rise

Brendon Gale has conceded Richmond coach Adem Yze “sat back a little” during his first season in charge — but has warned not to expect the same in 2025. SUBSCRIBE to find out more

Basically said he's warming the seat for Grigg or Hodge....

[Simonator]

Ha come on.

I read it as yze was respectful of the old premiership stars and didn’t want to step on any toes whilst analysing the list and seeing where we are at. Obviously the answer is we are completely stuffed, which he now knows.

Hopefully onwards and upwards from here

Hodge would be massive

[TigerLand]

I like Yze, but I'd be surprised if he bucks the trend of caretaker coach, which is what he feels like. It's why few highly qualified assistants didn't go for the role. He could do a Mitchell but Mitchell's benefited by a very good year this year. Another bottom 4 finish and he'd be under pressure next year.

Id love to be wrong as it would mean we succeeded in our rebuild quicker than normal. But will see.

Also think it's a bit of a drive by by Benny to say he say back a little. As CEO I would have thought that falls on you as behaviour accepted. But anyway. Onwards and upwards.

Anyone know if Yze is into cycling? Pretty sure I just saw him cruise past me in Balaclava in the full lycra get up

Based on what? He may end of being a great coach one day but he hasn’t been an assistant for a single game to be able to make such a claim. If your going based on his playing career, then you don’t need to look any further than Voss for an example of why you shouldn’t always make that correlation.

Full Lycra? If true my opinion of Yze further plummeted
