Who should our next coach be?

Featured Replies

Goodwin is surely done barring total incompetence from our board  (which is possible).

Who do you want to coach us next?   I will go with Ross Lyon, we need someone experienced and he taken two teams to Grand Finals.  An untried coach is too much of a risk for us.

 

Ross Lyon.

 

Clarko. He is trying to get him self sacked from the dawks... 

And he should be given a blank cheque book to bring in what ever assistant and line coaches he needs, because ours are absolutely [censored] house 

Who should our next board be?  These blokes have committed us to two more years, unnecessarily, of this rubbish.

Don't blame Goodwin.  We need a new coach but the board must go as well.  Useless bunch of nuff nuffs.

Someone who doesn't care about being liked.Or being nice.

Someone who can deliver a spray.

Ross the Boss seems the obvious choice.

None of this new wave [censored].

No way Goodwin will be sacked this year. 

Can’t see another available coach doing a better job. the culture and the attitude sucks at our club. 
Unless Clarko wants to leave

 

Our board will give Goodwin an extension. That's how [censored] this club is. 

Al Clarkson and Adem Yze as senior Assistant.

Clear out all the rubbish coaches we have in there.

He's running the VFL now I think, looking at a management side of football rather than coaching.

...but wouldn't mind trying to get him to take over the FD and succession plan for Pert's job.

He doesn't BS and can judge a list...North should have listened to him.

How the hell did Alan Richardson get a gig? Whatever people think of Jade Rawlings, mind boggling that Richardson stays and Rawlings leaves. 

And why do I feel like Collingwood were punching the sky when they got rid of Pert?

wont matter, players that come to the MFC only come for the paycheque, they don't want to win games, play finals or win premierships.

Mate..... A cardboard cut out of mark Neeld would do a better job than Simon. 


Goodwin is not going anywhere. Not saying I agree, it's just the reality.

Also...Ross Lyon, Adem Yze, Jordan Lewis.

It's all a deep state conspiracy - Pert is a Collingwood plant installed to ensure a ceiling is kept on a potential MFC rise and to see off any threat of a land grab around the Olympic Park precinct.

I'm vulnerable....so yeah, I'm on board. Pass me the foil

Bring on the Yze.  He's highly rated, he's had a long apprenticeship under Clarkson and he was an exceptional kick.  Just what we need. 


It has to be Alistair Clarkson.

Nobody else. He is a 4 time Premiership coach. We missed out on Kevin Sheedy in 2008. We cannot make the same mistake again.

Alistair Clarkson's days at Hawthorn are numbered.

We can't risk another young and untried coach.

Get Alistair Clarkson with Adem Yze as his assistant. Have a clean sweep of the entire Football Department.

Give Alistair Clarkson a 5 year contract with free reign to do what he needs to do at the club.

We need to start from scratch and build back everything at the club from the ground up.

 

I really like this thread. 
 

My choice in order

Clarkson 

R Lyon

M Williams 

I would be happy with any of the above. Just not [censored] goody. 

No matter the money, Goodwin has shown he cannot cut it with some of the best young players in the league.  He is shown up by a coach of15 games when finals on the line.

He has to go now, the club placed all their faith in him and dragged the supporters along.  
 

to lose two games in a row when everything is at stake is an appalling failure. The playing group are not buying in, otherwise it would be different.

I would go for the best tried and tested coach available.  Clear out Mahoney and Pert as well.

the Club is the leagues worst performing team over 50 years and is toxic.  
 

Roos and Jackson have us hope, Pert and Goodwin have ripped all hope away.  A total disaster after the Roos era.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    It’s late February. Two teams widely predicted to finish near the foot of the AFL table in 2026 face off against each other in sweltering 30-degree heat deep in outer suburbia in a match simulation with fresh new faces and uneven team numbers. There are no nearby sheep stations on offer; the result promises nothing more than bragging rights for the winner. Nevertheless, the loser appears hopelessly adrift, whereas the other seems to have found its footing after a couple of years of struggle – perhaps a hint at bigger things to come?

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    It was only a preseason match but the new look Demons spearheaded by new coach Steven King looked impressive as they put on a clinic against perennial cellar-dwellers North Melbourne as they cruised to an 80 point victory at Casey Fields.
