Figgy needs to join the theatre.yep
"The overwhelming feeling for me is what a waste for the year, unfortunately," Buckley said.
"In the end, this is what we do. Our season’s over. This is going to be the hardest week of our life, watching what’s going to take place in the next seven days. There’s no coming back. A click of the fingers and that’s over. We didn’t make the most of our moment.
"Next week's going to be pretty hard. You don't have a God-given right to get there. We had a strong year, and in many ways it was stronger than last year but we fall two steps short of where we ultimately want to be."
Spot on, TobyHe deserves to be a two time premiership coach. Where he took us from, to where we are now, is a magnificent achievement.
This century you mean?Spot on, Toby
Dimma is a Richmond Man through and through.
As a two-time premiership coach he will be launched into the pantheon of Richmond legends ... coach of the team of the century
Buckley needs to take his players to the zoo next Saturday....except by pass the Tiger enclosureyep

Then again if he ever beat Tommy’s record - I suspect we’d happily take it!Of course
I reckon Fagan got found out in the finals. Star midfield able to dominate but all at sea going forward. However I think this reflects the limited coaching resources Fagan has, so good on him. Next year is his real challenge.Chris Fagan elected "coach of the year" by the other coaches.
"All coaches were rated based on their team’s performance, considering the club’s resources, player talent and team management."
- received friendly "bottom six" draw
- barely had an injury all year
- bombed out in straight sets against interstate visitors.
Seems even the other coaches have sold Dimma short.

Yeah good for Fagan, who cares. Let's see how he goes next year.I don't mind Fagan getting it.
The fact Clarko has never won it sort of shows it's more of an encouragement award than anything else.
Seems to go to blokes who have turned the team's fortunes around. Clarko's been too good for too long I guess.Dimma was awarded it two years ago.
Actually quite surprised Clarko hasn't been awarded it.
Hawks were bottom 2 when Clarkson arrived, within 5 years they’d won a Premiership.Seems to go to blokes who have turned the team's fortunes around. Clarko's been too good for too long I guess.
True, and especially that first flag was one out the box I guess. Who won it the year they won that first flag?Hawks were bottom 2 when Clarkson arrived, within 5 years they’d won a Premiership.
Bomber. Got it in 2007, too.True, and especially that first flag was one out the box I guess. Who won it the year they won that first flag?
EDIT looked it up , Bomber T won it after Geelong were minor prems for the second year running. Before that they were 10th.
Maybe Clarko's sparkling personality ruled him out with a few other coachesBomber. Got it in 2007, too.
Yes, he was an angry little man there for a while.Maybe Clarko's sparkling personality ruled him out with a few other coaches
