Rohan Connolly's question in today's Age...

A choice between Punt Road and Arden Street would be an intriguing one for "Bucks".

List? You'd take North's over the Tigers'.

Security? You'd think Richmond.

Culture? The Roos', surely.

Buckley would take Richmond. It all comes down to the bit in the article that talks about awakening a giant asleep. Its all about ego for all AFL coaches.

To this I would have to say the Roo's as they play with a lot more passion that we do at the minute.

i think most in football circles would take a job with a viable on going entity over another prospect with any number of questions raised on both the short and longer term existence that would NO doubt impact on the level of support available...it's a deep field of rookie coaches, pretty sure both clubs will get their man without crossing pathes :thumbsup

Would he take the North job then?
That's the hypothetical question of this thread. One or the other.

i wouldnt think so, the plum jobs in this caper are the handful of well off Melbourne clubs and most of the interstate sides, given the abundance of resource that tends to advantage those clubs over the poor cousins....we have plenty going for us, Im certain we will have a wide field

Caro's response to this question of Richmond vs North:

"Richmond has more resources and supporters being a bigger club whereas North has more spirit and achieved more with a similar playing list standard over the past 5 years."

Whatever the argument! In the end the male ego will surface and for that Richmond is a no brainer.
Whoever coaches Richmond to its next flag will be a legend, not only in the eyes of Tigers but all who follow football.

Where has this mythical shinboner spirit been this year  ???. Sheesh even we flogged them. They need to rebuild and add more talented players to their ordinary list but they can't literally afford a couple of years bottoming out at the bottom of the ladder to get them. Catch 22 for North.
