In order of who we should get .

1.Roos

2.Clarkson

3. Choco

4.Worsfold

5.Eade

6.Ratten

7.Ayres

said before left doggies with nothing

drafted a forward line that failed badly

it consisted of johnson,eagleton,hall,and akker, this line couldnt run out of site on a foggy night

they were creamed because of no forward chase

ask thier fans how the new coach is liking the rebuild

eade refused to take a hit on young players while the dogs were still UP

he tried the terry wallace draft ing rule and it failed

that what i based my statement on

Most Sacked coaches in this modern era seem to enjoy some degree of success before they are moved on and it seems for many of the same reasons that you have attributed to Eade.. They all start well but eventually 'wear out their friendships'.. Ratten, Craig to name two ... Melbourne Football Club Coaches seem to be the exception to this pattern..(bad choices).. Oh and thanks for at least trying to explain the basis for your previous post..

Eade, no thanks.

No particular reasons ??

Rocket gets the bronze for mine.

Silver medalist as far as our targets go is Choco due to his flag, long term succes with Port, his ability to develop young players and his ability to sell the club.

Gold medalist is Roos for the hope he'd bring to the club and all things that Choco could also bring. Don't forget he ended the Swans 72 year drought. We're about to hit 50 years!

Probably agree with this. Wouldn't be disappointed with any of them though.

This is great - we seem to have options in regards to experienced coaches and guys who actually seem to want the job. Bit of a change from last time!

I can see the attractions of Eade as coach. He has worked in environments that weren't ideally resourced and does know how to motivate teams not playing in front of huge crowds. I think working at the Pies also will have helped him see how one of the best organisational clubs goes about it. I listened to a piece on the ABC where Lindsey Gilbee talked about how Rocket first came to the Dogs and about how he persuaded him to stay at the Dogs because he rated him as a player. I think we could do with some of that. He does have his faults, but surely he is one of the top candidates.

That leaves 5. Eade, 6. Ratten and 7. Ayres as First three, at this stage because 1, 2 and 3 are currently unavailable and Worsfold Not what we want Never makes a move.

Who doesn't have faults ?? Everybody on this earth have them... just saying

Rocket is my preferred choice (we should have gotten him last time). He is demanding yet structures his game plan to the strengths of his list. He has rebuilt clubs before (a lot of the donkey work was done in Sydney before he arrived but he was the man who turned the Dogs around) and he plays a pretty straight bat when it comes to the media without going overboard. Plus he has coached before and quite successfully I might add. Choco might work out but I worry about some of his tendencies i.e. falling out with club officials, making brash statements in the media.

Ideally, I want Paul Roos but I don't think we will land him so it's Eade for mine.

Obviously you covered your ears when Paul Roos was asked about the job on TV last night soxy?

The Melbourne of 2012 and so far in 2013 was just unacceptable so for that reason alone im happy Neeld (what has this got to do Rodney Eade you say,i'll get to that!) is gone.To give credit where it's due Mark did bring players like Mitch Clark and Chris Dawes to the club but the task of turning this grand old club around was too big a task for a rookie coach.It's quite fitting isn't it that Neeld's final game as coach was played out in front of a silent MCG.Even the Collingwood supporters didn't feel that it was a win worth celebrating.There was no triumphant chanting of the Coolingwoood Cooolingwood chant.We only beat one proper club Essendon during the Neeld era.The next coach will be an experienced one.It's about time that the the MFC stops becoming a training centre for rookie coaches.I would be delighted if we get any out of Matthews, Roos, Clarko and Choco Williams.I would accept Brett Ratten as well who turned Carlscum around from being a rabble to playing finals footy.Im a huge fan of Rodney Eade though.He did a good job at the Swans and he turned the Western Bulldogs into a team that the bigger sides feared.Rockett said that on the day he first arrived at the Whitten Oval that the club was at rock bottom and the players confidence was shattered.It sounds like this is an ideal job for Mr Eade so and he wants it!I also think Rockett is our most realistic option.Yeah he hasn't coached a side to a flag but we have enough to do just getting competitive at the moment and Rodney Eade would make us a competitive team that no one would relish playing.
