In fairness though the way this 'war' is erupting it does sound more and more likely that Mick wasnt as happy about the succession as it appeared they all were.

After winning the 2010 Premiership I can see how he might have come to regret his decision.

Yeah something has definatly gone on for Mick to be this bitter about it a couple of years down the track. Maybe he feels he was screwed over, maybe his dissapointed in himself for not putting up more of a fight to hold his job, maybe he regrets being open about having a lack of passion.

Just seems something isnt all hugs and kisses from what i have heard through mainstream media.

Prime example Mark Thompson, is burnt out and coaching Essendon as an assistant.


Yep, that's it, Collingwood made Mick say these things. Honestly, some of the shit that people spurt...

Dude there has been many a sports team that has had a coach come out and be prepared before hand to say something from a statement. It is to make the fans think all is well within the club when it well and truly isn't. You could tell when Eddie announced the succession plan Mick wasn't really keen but knew he had no choice. Honestly if Mick was all for this director of Coaching gig he would still be there. He never was interested in it. He will be back coaching soon enough.

Initially, all parties were happy with the succession plan. Collingwood had floated the idea of getting rid of Mick then and there, but I believe it was Ed who intervened and suggested he be given two more years.

Obviously the premiership success reignited Mick's passion, but by then the deal had been done.

The hammering that Hamish “I run over dogs without stopping and edit my own Wiki page” Mclachlan is getting on another footy forum. One of the most punchable faces on the TV.
