Yep. He’s at least 2 flags ahead of the next best. Enough said.
When's he's not attacking helpless journalist he can be quite a nice person.
Dimma deserves a well earned break. Was meant to be off until Jan after 2020 GF but his break up ended that and he was present all preseason. Take a full month off, go somewhere warm and away from Melbourne AFL media.
I do enjoy the moral crusaders getting all antsy when he fires back in defending his players and stupid journalists questions like he isn’t allowed to!! I’m looking at you Caro

How lovely to see your concern for me my Dear Bear as the yin to your yang or vice versa
Rest assured it is still I.
This season is one definately one requisite of circumspection.
The normal build into season 2021 was compromised due to the late finish of 2020. Dimma's normal approach to build into the season, after the epiphany of 2018, unfortunately resulted in a sluggish ill prepared team susceptible to injury. Wrong approach irrespective of whether Innes was there or not. Club realised mid stream...lessons learnt! We will be challenging for years to come.

Really sage piece of advice and a great reflection. I wasn't married, but in a 12 year relationship to a girl I met when I was 19. My first 6 months after the break-up I was lost. Then after that, jesus did I make up for lost time. I can only imagine a marriage, with many assets, kids, etc and how much mental space that would take up.
Right before he goes on holidays for a month he needs a red hot talking to from Benny and Balmey. His cheating on his wife has clearly hurt his coaching as he looks like it’s still 2019. The game doesn’t pause for anyone.
have a break, clear your head but come back with you head in the game

100%. Plus willingness to play old fashioned man on man when needed. Plus no concept of forward ball movement. Kept talking about it, but it got continually worse. Horrendous season.
People see Dimma the footy coach as shown by the media etc
Dimma the person is full of ego and very pig headed
No surprises that Leppa , McCrae and Innes not there this year .
Club changed the assistants in 2016 .
May have to do something similar in 2022. .only my view but I wouldn’t have extended his contract at start of the year .Dimma has lost respect of playing group
Irrelevant of what is said in the media etc
Pressure is on for 2022. Will have full list back & fully fit, albeit with ageing stars. But Hardwick has to find a better game plan that doesn’t solely rely on turnovers. Contest at clearance/stoppage and kicking skills are what has to be addressed. Blob kicking down the line to stationary targets has to stop.
If you can’t kick, compete against an opponent or work hard to get separation, you can’t play.
