Very messy end though

Who cares ?

[Hannibal 5,814]

I'm pro Williams & anti Roos. I don't like Roos' attitude.

I'm pro winning.

Who cares ?

Given your very strong views on recent and not so recent events at our club, that surprises me.

[Hannibal 5,814]

I've gone to great lengths to explain why it doesn't bother me; i.e 12 years at the one club; Parkin sacked, re-employed, sacked, i.e. there's a use by date for all coaches; great win/loss record; recharged batteries; highly regarded at Richmond; regarded by past players as a great development coach; change of personnel in admin and footy manager can lead to the type of events he experienced in 2010, especially after 12 years ...

Clearly you're concerned by his exit and clearly I've covered reasons why I'll give a successful premiership coach the benefit of his record.

In essence, you either want to believe, or you don't. I want to and I have enough compelling reasons to. I think you're overly concerned by one part of his history, which can be reasonably explained. Ultimately, please yourself.

[Lordweaver 235]

Exactly, rule him out

[Nasher 33,246]

Exactly, rule him out

I'm scared that you're serious, and even more scared to ask you to elaborate.

Great coach, great developer of young tqalent, and to top it off a great personality who will sell hope to the Demon faithful and deliver the goods

you are talking about Craig are you not cause it sounds like him to me.

Maybe Melbourne can bring Choco and Dusty to Melbourne.. Just wishful thinking!

Heard from a mate , so no it's no 100% reliable but Dusty is unhappy with his offer compared to Jack Roo. If Buddy goes north of the border Dusty will request trade to Hawks.

Hawthorn is probably the very last club Martin should be thinking of going to, given their past - in regards to drug strikes.

I would have thought Sydney would be a fantastic fit for someone like Dusty, although he'd look good in Red and Blue

You've come to the wrong place.
