    I would imagine a sunnier place.

    This is obviously done with the Tigers blessing.

    They can now try out kids and plan for the future and look for a new Coach who can carry a rebuild.

    Sad news, he was my favourite post loss "presser" coach of all time and this year was going to be a big one for me and him. Oh well

    Reiwoldt, Cotchin and tarrant to retire at the end of year.

    Dusty, Grimes and Lynch are slowing down.

    No first round draft pick this year after spending on Tarranto and Hopper.

    Hardwick is smart. That cliff os coming quick then some thought.

    Dusty will retire. He and Dimma are very close. He won’t hang around for a rebuild and who can blame him. He’s achieved everything and more.

    But I don’t think Dimma wants to rebuild. If he did he’d stay with Richmond. 
    Gold Coast have a decent list already. West Coast are a decade away.

    Good on him for choosing his time.  He goes out with a record that any would envy.  He rebuilt a club from rock bottom, kept the wolves at bay and came out a three time premiership coach.  And in the end the media never got him!  That is a brilliant career.

    For a guy that’s probably still on the outer, that’s a massive story for Morris to break. Richmond would be furious with that leak.

    But good on Hardwick to know when the time is up. He‘s done what Clarko should have done in 2019.

    Hang on just a minute people. Morris broke the story but we have heard nothing official from Tigers. 🤔

    I think we can back in a new lifestyle on the GC, for Dimma and his partner.

    They have a list that can play finals.

    Agree he is not about to rebuild a list.

    The only other realistic possibility is Port, also with a ready made list.

    Richmond coach Damien Hardwick, the man who guided the Tigers out of the wilderness to win three premierships in four years, is set to quit, The Age has confirmed.

    The Tigers will hold a press conference on Tuesday to make the announcement, which will be effective immediately.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
