Has been an ornament to the game. Wish him well wherever he goes/whatever he does. Anyone who thinks otherwise seriously has NFI. Track record says wherever he went they were left a better place. Not sure if he would have fit the mould at demonland or of demonland would have readjusted to fit Mick. His deputy will do just fine for us, I'm sure if mark has a question for Mick he'll be at the end of the line and will give an honest answer. Thanks for the memories Mick (even though not many are good from our end)

Eddie and Mick have made the Pies a force in the AFL.

I hope the MFC can emulate the feat.

Don't get the hatred - our coach is our coach primarily because Mick Malthouse was his mentor and is a huge wrap for him.

And our Garry Lyon trusted the word of Mick Malthouse...

Shock horror.

I don't hate Malthouse but I'm glad he's not coaching Melb next year.

I don't think he would have the hunger any more. Nothing left to prove.

Go Neeld, and go Demons!

What?

Time to further loosen your attitude rpfc. But M&M is just a candy baby, on the outside....poor baby.

Now let's just get our facts right here...

Is M&M the best coach in the business, as he was a few weeks ago? Or is Chris Scott the best coach in the business?

Perhaps we should have 'gone after' Chris, being a premiership coach, or should we have gone after Bomber Thompson (who was 'out of control' at 3/4 time duting Essendons final - he had no idea).

You smart-arsed people, on these boards, who 'go for the best available "coach"' are full of crap.

Oh, yeah, Let's get M&M and pay him a $1,000,000 a year.

Great for footy, especially great for the MFC. I would have been devastated had this hack come to Melboune. His success was a result of his 'line' coaches, which were finally premiership quality after his 11 years at the helm. M&M did Nothing!

Neeld is one of the main reasons Collin#$*d had success. Now we have him and I am delighted. He was not a part of the Collin@#$% disintegration.

I always said M&M was not woth a sh_t.

I am delighted that Geelong won the Flag.

It's amazing how people such as yourself can watch years of AFL football but have no clue about the game!!

A good effort really.

MM has left a legacy, despite the views of a couple of blind gits who obviously wouldn't know their arse from their elbow. Aside from Footscray, every club he has touched was a basket case when he came and a powerhouse when he left. There is no arguing that FACT. I am glad we got Neeld not Malthouse, but to try and diminish his influence on, and status in the game is just foolish Filth hatred. I hate them too, but not to the point of foolishness.

It's called 'selective judgement', my friend. And I love it! Don't give me [censored] about who knows waht!

Time for some of you fools to pop-of the Demons and follow some other tribe. "Twist", off you go!

Mick Malthouse had a solid coaching career and I tilt my hat to him. Can't say I like him, but I the respect the man.

As for Mick going forward, I think 2012 is a year for him to reflect. He could go the way of a David Parkin and spend the rest of his days in the football wilderness, or Mick could come back to a club in some role. You don't spend that long in footy and walk way without in skills. He still has much to teach, and plenty to offer. Although I do get the impression he may have coached his last game as a head coach in this league. Could be of great use to a GWS or GC Suns team.

Good luck to him.

Are you on crack?

There is no point to arguing with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level, then beat you with experience

Not sure if serious...

Malthouse has been much admired by the clubs he's coached. He's a good man

and good luck to him.

Malthouse would like to see the Dees succeed under his protege Neeld.

Neeld is the coach of your club primarily because Garry Lyon trusted the judgement of Mick Malthouse...

Were the Bulldogs a powerhouse when Malthouse left?
