Yeah I know that was the question, couldn't find who coached in 2009 so couldn't answer it completely.
"Rawlings was one of four Richmond assistant coaches to apply, along with Wayne Campbell, David King and Craig McRae.

Brian Royal was the only deputy not to put up his hand."


Looks like it was a clean slate. Even more reason for us to follow suit. Again.

However the entire hand picked crew were then moved on after the 2016 season so not sure what lessons we can take out of that.

All of them out.
Clarke Teague Rutten and Morris all out
We need to know contract situations & $ involved if it were to be a clean out.

Comes off the soft cap?

We need $ to bump up other areas such as strength & conditioning as well so we can’t just wipe everything/everyone?

I don’t think the AFL will be increasing soft cap much next year if any. Not to how it was pre-Covid.

I think if clubs can afford too and are well run, money in the bank , then they should be allowed too.

Who's doing what?

Kane Lambert is midfield coach? Who else is involved in what role?

I thought Newman was midfield coach. Would explain why we didn't run.
Ziebell is the stoppage/clearance coach and yes Newman in charge of overall midfield.
On first outing they and their midfielders had a mare:mad:

Two non-running non-midfielders in charge of the midfield in the modern running game. Hmm.

Easy team. I’m sure that whoever our midfield coach is didn’t instruct Dow to completely disappear or for Taranto to have his worst game in yellow and black.

A coach is only as good as the talent available. Just ask Bill Belichick.

I think that's a fair point. As a short grunt ruck, does he know what to teach a spindly type like Ryan? Different approach required.

They got the mix wrong Spook. First half was littered with blokes who run on the spot.

In the second half they put in a 100kg rover in Balta and changed it up. Speed and athleticism kills.

Shai would still kick his share of goals as a midfielder and his clearance numbers are good, an obvious choice.
He is the only player that can change the dynamic of our slow midfield IMO.

Balta also threw his body in at the ruck contest,,knowing he would probably lose the tap out,he made it hard for Witts to hit in the direction he wanted .
Taps in the first half to advantage where ridiculous for the Suns ,thats why we got smashed in the midfield ,and no mid changed tact .
