Differing opinion

Is Clarkson the super coach everyone thinks he is or the list of Mitchell, Hodge, Roughhead Burgoyne , Rioli etc make him look better than he really is?


Not being critical of him, just a thought

I've raised it myself on here, a coach is just one cog, an important one obviously, in a massive machine and to think Clarkson will have a magic wand at his next club is interesting. He may, but who knows?

So do you “sell the farm” to get him? I don’t know

I think you have to. It sells hope to the members. He will be regarded as one of the best coaches of all time. He will surround himself with the right people, he is not a fool. They cant afford to try another untried coach. Imagine if Collingwood had lost half those close games they would be 10th and people would look at McRae differently to what they are currently.

We'll find out in the next couple of seasons.

Rutten probably had to go but unless others follow nothing will change. Garbage list built by a charlatan of a list manager who escapes criticism

How does Dudoro survive Jim? I read a lot of BF club boards and Bomber fans have been calling for his head for years. Surely the members are doing the same??

REB

He has weaseled his way into the inner sanctum and now holds a position of power where he basically the de facto number 1 powerbroker and unsackable.
Has a lot of money and uses it to keep him at the top

@superfooty
Ben Rutten has not been sacked as the Bombers prepare to make changes to their board.
@Robbo_heraldsun
has the latest.

Who would want to coach Essendon, place sounds toxic.

I could think of a million reasons why
1.5 million reasons if you’re Clarko

That just ruins the soft cap meaning you have dud assistants and have to do more work yourself.

Or you just breach the soft cap and pay the overs fine.

Called a soft cap for a reason. Nothing stopping you going over it if you have the money

given he built that list at hawthorn and his tactical nouse, he is a very good coach. he can come coach geelong anytime. $2mill per year. bugger the soft cap, just pay the tax
whatever job he takes is atleast a 5year job.

Or if you're GWs get an "ambassadorial" grant from the AFL to outbid any other franchise (allegedly before the commission tomorrow according to afl.com.au)

You don't get paid money at Geelong you get cents on the dollar property deals.

Surely when you see the writing on the wall its time to move on.

when was the last time a coach had the guts to say, "This aint working, I'm outta here"

Probably been a few but cant recall them right now.

Ruttens a dead man walking, he will get the boot seasons end, perhaps right now he should gracefully put his hand up and say bye i'm outta here
