Richo does not take the Essendon job of mentor to Rutten and saves Worsfolds bacon. Therefore he continues to coach one more season and then hands over the coaching role to Rutten.  Hypothetically Worsfold has a tremedous year and makes the GF then what?  That may be enough to keep him another year?

In any case I am rapt we have Richo and good guys don't always run last.

Seems like a real asset to the team.

[Adam The God 30,682]

Looks great in a Melbourne polo.

[Tough Kent 2,138]

Richo commands respect and builds great relationships with his players. He'll be a great asset. 

[Ted Lasso 19,586]

Geez he's an impressive guy. 

[Demonstone 23,508]

FFS, why do they need to play that stupid, annoying muzak under interviews?  All it does it distract from what is being said and make it more difficult to hear Richo's answers. ( Insert old man yelling at cloud here. )

[Colm 2,204]

Ok well I’m now very confused about our coaching situation. Mahoney said this morning that we’re not seeking more assistant coaches. We have let 3 coaches go and only brought in Richo and he says his role is mainly to mentor the other coaches!!!  I’ve probably miss heard or miss read something but seems very odd. What am I missing?

Simply so that it doesn’t get used anywhere else. It’s like a watermark on a videoclip

Richo will not have come cheap

[dworship 3,343]

There was music playing during the interview?

[nosoupforme 3,085]

Yes Richo is a good guy and talks well. Knows what is expected of  his role and will be the support  Goody and his assistants need.

An experienced mentor. I believe Richo will be more than a valuable asset for us and  feel comfortable having him at the Dees.

  Bring on 2020 and beyond.

Will be interesting to see how 2 Senior Coaches work together 

[Hellish Inferno 992]

Liked the process of bringing in a solid method first and then look at performance after. Makes sense of course.

You mean like Lepp and Hardwick at Richmond? I think it's pretty clear it works well and is pretty industry standard.

My guess is that statement was a mistake. There's three vacancies including replacing Jennings, Rawlings & Casey coach as the fill in for Rawlings has moved to a development role.   

There's a lot to cover and get right in these interviews and some info you must not want to disclose. For instance he paused and stumbled before he announced the offer to Elliot was 3 years. I would have thought it wouldn't be in our interests to let other clubs know what that offer is so they know what they have to beat to get him. He probably wishes he hadn''t said anything and didn't want to make that mistake again.

Why does this guy,Goodwin, need a mentor He was hand picked by Roos 3 years of development

What is wrong with Goodwin? If you cant get it right don’t do it.
