Fly leaving
- Thread starter Feeling Tigerish
- Start date
He will be quite a loss, he's done a great job for us as our VFL and Development coach. Thanks, Fly. Well-done and you will be missed and remembered positively. He doesn't come across as your typical aggressive, macho type but obviously football smart and able to cultivate strong, supportive relationships with players that can bring out their best. Ditto for Leppa who has been brilliant too.
However, a guy that I knew little about and thought little of has started to impress me - Adam Kingsley. See his pre-match presser. I really like his calm, clear and measured responses which are also forthright and astute about the game. He is even cut from the same rugged, hardened defender mould as the great Tom Hafey and his current-day successor, Damian Hardwick.
Just wondering if AK has moved into heir apparent position if or when Dimma wants to call it a day? BTW, when does Dimma's 4 year contract actually expire? I wonder if he wants to stick at it afterwards with RFC or just take a break, whatever.
Why would anyone go to North?
Shambles of a club with terrible culture
Mate, just don't go there ,,, for your own sake. Anyway, isn't Vossy no.1 candidate? He's got the ego and toughness to take it on, but still reckon that club's future is not assured.
Yes Voss, Kingsley and one other I forget. Voss is definitely in the frame
North are in trouble for sure. Tassie kangas looms large
Can’t help but wonder if this has something to do with the punishment delivered to the club over the combination of Mrs Cotchin‘s beauty parlour visit and kebab gate.
Fly has been a terrific coach and is universally respected and always professional. Difficult to describe this in the time of covid, but this loss to me is as great as either Noah or Chai walking out the door.
I hope at seasons end the Club may consider seeking a review of the penalties handed down in Brisbane.
10 weeksx2 plus the soft cap penalty, was knee jerk and over the top.

He's only a year younger. At 47 he's running out of time if he's in the market for a senior job.
Unreal, we are losing all our coaches and Fly has been massive in this team’s development.
He is off to the Dawks to replace Yze.
We will get another, no matter how good he has been , the next bloke might be better

Jumping off a sinking ship
Seriously devastated Fly leaving, pretty sure it is because, 'There's no cash here. Here, there's no cash. Cash! NO'.
*If the $100k shortfall in the soft cap is the major component why Fly left I don't know how Stack and CJ could walk back into the club even if they are given another chance. No doubt they have cost someone their job.
no doubt his a huge loss as others have been , however who knows it may be the perfect time for some fresh ideas and a new voice
Can't comment on the financial decision in this but have heard on local ABC radio this morning he is seen as a big chance to take over from Clarkson if/when he decides to move on.
Yep, unfortunately.
On the bright side, the new financial landscape requires clubs not only to adapt, but to adapt quickly. This ability ultimately comes from having a smart CEO, and a smart board.
We’re in very good hands.
Its obviously about the coin - Fly said publicly that Caracella was mad to leave the Tiges last year.
Fly's strength is his ability to develop young players, this is why Hawthorn want him. They will be hitting the draft next couple of years I reckon
Will need to quarantine for a couple of years.... been in 2 extremely high risk areas Essendon and Geelong. ... may even require a dose of Donald's Disinfectant !
