Leppitsch confirmed as Brisbane's new coach. Question is - will Dusty follow him to the Lions. Plenty of want-aways as potential trade bait.
 
Congrats to Leppa. He was highly rated by us from reports.


Dustin won't follow Leppa there though.
 
All the best Lepa (except for when you come up against the tiges of course). Has done a good job whilst at the tigers.
 
Congrats to Leppitsch.

Good, we now have an opportunity to recruit a TOP KPP development coach.

I wish Leppitsch all the best in his future projects.
 
good luck to him - I have always been a big fan of his

RFC needs some fresh eyes into the assistant coaching panel - I think prospective assistant coaches would find Richmond an attractive place to be

Big decision for the club - who are the likely candidates?

Personally, as I have stated previously, I would favour a key forward coach to come into the group. With Chaplin, Grimes, Rance, Houli, Morris I think the back line is in pretty good shape and don't need to much specialist coaching
 
best wishes to justin.

obviously without knowing the facts it seems very strange that brisbane sacked voss in the manner they did, and when they seemed to be travelling ok, to end up going with another favourite son untried coach.
 
I see Brad Miller has been appointed to an assistant role at Melbourne. I always thought he could have been a good coach - not much of a player but got the best out of himself.

It is a risky move, but in Leppitsch's favour he has at least been in the system as an assistant coach, whereas Voss had never coached in any capacity when he was appointed.
 
A completely different and greatly Tigers backline since Leppa arrived at Richmond. Best of luck

Did a good job with Rance in particular.

Time for some fresh blood and new ideas.

Good luck Leppa but not too much.

I agree with all of this. Best of luck in role, first job is to retain all players that want out.
 
Well done Leppa, all the best in the future and thank you for all your tiresome work.

In saying that, hopefully you get smashed by 20 goals next time we meet... :clap
 
Thanks for all your hard work in making the Tigers are force again Leppa. :clap :clap

It will be interesting to see who replaces him.
