Re: Damien Hardwick

Says it every time "Buck stops with me". I've never heard any other coach state this, and I reckon he will step down if we continue losing and playing like this. Matter of time.
 
Re: Damien Hardwick

LOL, when asked about talent to come in, all he said was Vickery.

We are in trouble.
 
Re: Damien Hardwick

The only thing that stood out was his words " we are an ordinary side" and the " players have to take some if the responsibility too".

Buck stops with him and his coaching staff he made mentioned as well!
 
Re: Damien Hardwick

5 years is more than long enough.

Blind faith in this coaching group and list is a mistake of massive proportions.

Big hard decisions need to be made, but this club is just incapable of doing anything gutsy or right.
 
Re: Damien Hardwick

I'm still filthy with that crap they dished up against the Dees...how could we honestly pay respects to Tommy in that fashion???
Tonight just topped me off.
We were nothing but witches hats - training fodder for an average opposition.
No defensive pressure, couldn't win a centre clearance and on the odd occasion we went into our forward 50 we looked for a short 10 metre pressure pass...just staggering.
Now they've even lost whatever intinct they had.
Oh, and Vickery, please tell us what what so humerous sitting in the stands at halftime you goose?
AND Dusty...what the hell were YOU smiling at with the opposition after the siren?

Does anyone who wears that jumper care anymore?
 
Re: Damien Hardwick

:blah :blah :blah :blah :blah
Same explanation every week
Makes me sick listening to this crap
How about trying something new like changing the game plan
Instead of kicking jack up the backside for talking to the media
Do something try something for smiles sake
 
Re: Damien Hardwick

The bloke is not going to say anything that will appease everyone's anger. At least I can see he is hurt, he is honest, can't ask got much kore out of a press conference.
 
Re: Damien Hardwick

Sad part is that next year is a marketing nightmare of monumental dimensions. we live in interesting times

there's no way he can coach us into 2015

Why not?
This club cant continually sack coaches, you don't want them going down that road again.
He won't walk, easy $$$$
There isn't any Graeme Richmond's around.
Who is going to do the sacking Benny Gale? He is a cat
 
Re: Damien Hardwick

I watched Griggs the entire 3rd quarter and he just ran up and down the AFL wing, I do not understand his role.
We needed goals and that didn't look like it was working

Re: Damien Hardwick

Hinted in his presser needs coaching staff support. The SOB has an axe to grind and has aired his frustrations through the media.

Message to Softarse: You've got a premiership coach next to you as one of your assistants. Use him you fool.

*smile*. We haven't sacked a coach for 15+ years.
 
Re: Damien Hardwick

I have been writing this for over a week. Short of him quitting, he isn't going anywhere. The board and Benny have thrown their lot in with Dimma in a very public way. If they sack him they all have to go

Clearly he is hurting but the problem starts with him and his stupid style of play he demands.

I also wrote we will be 3-11 in a few weeks....I haven't changed my mind. This is Spud 2002-4 all over again.
