Probably saw the propensity for bad errors under pressure.
Not saying we havnt got good value out of Bachar, but I can see why he was traded.
If we're going to rebuild, the club could do worse. Has demonstrated an ability to teach young players.
Been a long while since Dimma was at Hawthorn. Knights would bring some fresh IP from a successful club.
Not necessarily in favour at this stage, but not opposed.

That has to be a myth. Knights herded older blokes into retirement and played Essendon's youngest teams since the 1970's. Then Tird and the coterie stabbed him after he's laid the groundwork.
I heard a coach interviewed on the radio recently. He's just coached back to back flags in Tassie. He comes from a school teacher back ground. He spoke well and gave some good food for thought. I wouldn't be upset if we knocked on his door for a role at Tigerland.

No. Geisch was on a hiding to nothing. Interested to know how his career compared with DH's over a similar period of time. From memory Geisch was about 50/50 w/l. There's a mountain of difference in the resources and support they each had available.
It was Zane Littlejohn. I hope he gets a crack at an AFL club.
Let's be honest he wasn't given a fair go at the Bombers wasn't given the financial support that Hird was. He has since proven by winning a flag and another grand final appearence That he can coach. I would be happy to have him back where he belongs but only with a new recruiting and list management overhaul in place. I think this is where the Hardwick has failed having too much faith in them they have failed him. He has been our best coach since 82 for that I thank him and his heart and soul that he has put into the club and tried his best but I think it has failed and time to move on.
Heard similar things from others about Gieschen. Talked a good game. He did however have a pretty instant impact as a caretaker coach, though. Won 4 out of the last 5 games when we couldn't catch a cold with Walls as senior coach.Broders said:
