Which other teams will be looking for a coach in 2014?

Featured Replies

Was just thinking about this possibility, and who will be our competition to snag the coach we want.

At this stage I think Brisbane would be the only definite club looking for a new coach, I cant see Voss being there past this season. He has been poor to say the least.

West Coast would be another, as the rumblings are fairly strong that Worsfold will walk away at seasons end but he might stay on, who knows.

Outside chance might be the Saints or Doggies if they capitulate to MFC-like levels in the seasons 2nd half. Watters and McCartney aren't exactly setting the world on fire.

Guy McKenna will surely continue at Gold Coast, and Leon Cameron is locked in at GWS.

 

apollo bay needs a playing coach, milne could get that

otway districts is definately looking for a coach, non playing maybe MN

apollo bay has apparently interviewed voss, roos and eade already

so we better hurry up

How about Collingwood if Eddie's love child doesn't produce the goods?

 

At this stage West Coast look more likely than not, Brisbane a decent chance and if Richmond fall in a heap is Hardwick not out of contract, although Richmond seem to be going ok.

Could just be us and West Coast and in that case you'd think we'd go for the experienced coach where as I'd see West Coast looking at the inexperienced options. I don't think they'd be interested in Eade or Williams and I'm not sure Paul Roos would be keen on going to Perth although they could make him a big offer.

You would think Sumich would be the obvious candidate if Worsfold walks, especially after getting a different look under Lyon, although will the club and the fans be able to forgive him going to the enemy in the Dockers?


West Coast appear certainties; there's been talk of Worsfold stepping down.

If Richmond don't make the finals, especially given where they are now (7-4 with some easy games to come), the pressure on Hardwick will be enormous.

Brisbane and Voss might be a possibility - 10 wins last year, won the NAB Cup, but donuts in the season proper.

I hear Scott Burns is a walk in if woosha goes.

Yeah could be. I forgot he was there. :)

 

I think we'll be the only side looking for a coach, which is good for us.


It's highly unlikely that Voss isn't given another year, he is their best ever player and captain.
The Lions will continue to surround Voss with experienced people and get their board right.

West Coast won't change their coach, it's not like Woosha is really struggling - it's more a case of injuries for WC,

If Woosha isn't there it will be because he doesn't want to be.

Other than that, we are the only side looking for a coach.


At least we have the walk up start. No timetable pressure. Can do a proper search

Are Otway Districts still in the Demons strip, jazza?

My guess is WCE, Brisbane Lions and GWS will have new coaches next year.

I think it would be highly unlikely if West Coast were looking for a new coach that they would go for an experienced coach (unless it was Danihar). I look at how Geelong has worked with Scott coming in as a "freshman", and think that other successful clubs would follow a similar path. The Eagles have a solid group that would just need a slight tinkering initially, and a newbie is more likely to do that than someone that is a "career coach".

I am doubtful that Voss will get the arse this year.

GWS obviosuly has a new coach next year, with that change not hindering our search for obvious reasons.

I can't see any other changes and would expect we have a free crack at the field. Could be perfect timing for us to going through this total football club rebuild.

The rumblings over here in the west is Worsfold is a certainty to go. Voss I would suggest might get next season. I can't see Buckley going as was suggested, Eddies ego wouldn't allow it

Any rumblings about a Woosha replacement?

As I said above, I don't think it will be an experienced coach. That said, if Woosha goes, it just adds another candidate to our impressive list.

yes

they got rid of the polly waffle jumpers years ago

and then ditched the north ones for dee s

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.
