Are you sure you got the right guy?

^^^^ Hahahaha!!

Are you sure you got the right guy?

Shows you what a shot of AOD 9604 can do...

Are you sure you got the right guy?

Cant be right, the shorts worn by the guy on the left aren't tight enough for Neil!

Surplus to needs Enjoy wherever Neil!

Just like you ey Mr Fence?

I hope the club isn't as keen to lose a coach with his experience as you lot are. When you have someone good in your organisation, you hold onto him for as long as you can.

Shouldn't we trade him?

While Im sure Daniel Craig will make a wonderful head coach again.. I don't know how anyone could justify him as being 'THE MAN' more so than Vossy to take Brisbane to their next flag... Their operation has been embarrassing and has heavily backfired.. Still I wish Daniel Craig the best of luck if he gets the gig!

i think with the sacking of Voss, that this seems to suggest they are going on a rebuild push.

Jonathon Brown & Simon Black are at an end... & its time to add to their youth. & a free agent if the can. I'd love to see them get Daisy from under M&M's nose. I think daisy is a better fit for them than us.

I'd like to get a couple of part timers that won't stall our kids places..... a couple of A-Grade 2 year players to teach & to lead onfield, & to help our kids development.

While I think the football director's role is important my feeling is that it is not as crucial with Roos at the helm.

It's absolutely crucial we get the right football chief, Roos knows the value of Andrew Ireland when he held the job when at Sydney. We can't afford to do anything half baked.

Now the lions are targeting Worsfold, does that mean he is more likely to stay.....

But do you do this for $400K?

He was choked up presenting Garland and Jones, sounded very disappointed to know he (probably) won't be coaching these gems anymore.

I Really hope Neil Craig sticks around.

Nice guy, but with Roos on board I'm happy to see him go. Actually, I'd like to see him go even though I hold him in tremendous regard.

I think the main players need to move on even if they were unwitting protagonists during the diabolical Neeld era.

IF the new coach feels he has a genuine rôle at the club then we should encourage him to stay.

He seems very knowledgable and he is a people's person it seems.

Whatever the outcome, thanks Neil for your contributions during these trying years. I for one are grateful.

Agree.

I don't want the players to have a remnant from a previous footy dept to go to as a crutch when things get tough.

Not that Craig would meddle, scheme or play politics, I think he'd respect Roos' role, but it's about the perception of others.

I honestly believe Craig won't stick around.

It's just the way he is.

He'd feel the honest and honourable thing would be to extricate himself from any conflict.

And probably most importantly he'd need to be in a position where he was really striving for something, not just a bloke trying to find out where he fits and can contribute because he still has a contract.

Agree. Whether that is Craig its up to Jackson and the AFL.

One of the problems at Essendon was the absence of an effective and empowered Chief of Football Operations.

If Roos comes to MFC its as Coach and not as Head of the FD.

We need to get the Head of FD role right. It's important to our future success.

I'd be terribly disappointed if/when Craig leaves. I can't help but wonder if the train-crash which unfolded before him is something that he feels responsible for and wants to do something about - and as Senior coach he could. He strikes me as a man of great integrity, who loves competing and winning. This would burn in his guts. A real pity that he's likely to leave us for mine.

Agree.

Backing up a Coach and then replacing him and then backing up the next one is probably not the best scenario.

That said, hello Todd.

However,I think Todd is a bit more removed from the coaching day to day though and wasn't a contender for the position full time.

He is and it would, but it is probably better all round.
