After having a look at the draw for this season as to the finishing positions of last year i really think Choco from Port might be in trouble

Port doesnt get much victorian press which is understandable

I can see them only winning 1 game against essendon in round 7 and maybe the next against carlton in round 11

We dont play them until round 21

After their dismal grand final display their confidence with be shot if the eagles beat them on sunday and thats in WA

I also expect Terry Wallace to be replaced after this season if Richmond doesnt make the final 8 and i doubt they will be consistent enough

Even if the Crows make the 8 i am starting to think time is running out for Neil Craig also

I also think this will be Paul Roos swan song and he might walk away from football altogether

With Collingwood and Malthouse who knows but time is running out

My predictions

NEW and SAFE

Blues - Ratten

Bombers - Knights

Demons - Bailey

Dockers - Harvey

SAFE

Roos - Laidley

Hawks - Clarkson

Cats - Thompson

Saints - Lyon

SHAKY GROUND (FINAL 8 FINISH DEPENDANT)

Magpies - Malthouse

Lions - Mathews

Bulldogs - Eade

Eagles - Worsfold

Crows - Craig

GONE after 2008

Tigers - Wallace

Power - Williams

RETIRE after 2008

Swans - Roos

REPLACEMENTS

Predictions

Swans - John Longmire

Tigers - David King

You also have to take into account these 2 new teams the AFL is planning to introduce and knowing the AFL as we do they will be planning there coaching preferences well ahead of time

The 2 New teams 2012

Sheedy Malthouse Mathews, Eade , Wallace , Ayres ?

And the new breed Voss , Buckley , Mckenna, Sumich , Bond ?

i dont see choco williams going anywhere anytime soon

we might be seeing kevin sheedy back at the toigs

the next coaches over the next three years will be longmuire, bond and mckenna

I know you have put a fair amount of effort into to your post, but i see no point in discussing whether oppostion coaches may or may not be around next season, maybe take that over to Bigfooty.

....

After 4 completed rounds, your making an assessment of the coaches' future. Amazing

roos wont retire, tigers are having a good season this year with 2 wins so far
