One would assume that All coaches value discipline, accountability and versatility in their teams.

And players are accustomed to these requirements whoever the coach is.

So that leaves the game plan. That certainly has a coach's fingerprint on it.

Can you Describe how MM's game has evolved over the past 2 years.

we are all of us in the stars,

Not specifically, no. I don't talk to Mick personally so it would be guesswork. I'm not the Lone Ranger on here as far as rank generalisations are concerned.

Not only that but we had players on the list who were unable to conform to said 'requirements' on a consistent basis.

All I'm saying is that he seems to be shaping the list according to a style/plan/formula and if he continues on this merry trail of mediocrity then it doesn't bode well for his future contract.

We are making wholesale changes to the list and the fans are expecting results.

I have changed my mind on this one. Its not critical how we perform next year ... The super duper coach does not need to do anything. Other teams are improving more than we are but it just doesn't seem to matter. If we finish further down the ladder than this year ... he will get a contract. If we finish last ... he will get a contract.

All hail the Madhouse.

It's definitely a toss up between yourself and Cretylus as to who is the most painful poster on this site.

s.


Don't really need to have a 4 hour conversation with coach on game plan philosophies etc.
Can attend a few games against different opponents with different personnel in the team. Watch replays etc.

Do we play up the middle corridor, the boundary lines, lick the ball in, carry and spread, flood, ATTACK with run from defence, kick long, handball a lot, kick short, kick to contests, avoid contests etc...

Is our game plan dynamic, cutting edge, revolutionary or stale and predictable?

Does the game plan suit the list and its depth?

Compare it to the top 4 teams last year. Are we different from the Clarkson, Lingmuir, Hinkley game plans?

Sorry Cret, I won't drag this thread off topic.

Start a new one if you like, it would be popular.

Our board will be comparing Mick's performance over his initial 3 year tenure with that of Ken Hinkley

surely he will get a 5 year deal then.

I also see that his ex-CEO mate Swan is now bringing in Collingwood blokes to Brisbane - brilliant stuff. Is there anything this Swan man cant do ladies and gentlemen.?


You mean Ken Hinkley 0 4 3


You stay out of this Ron

What are you trying to do, launch a fresh Hinkley feud before Christmas? Remember what happened last time? All hell broke loose.

Even dane became angry - he changed his avatar and everything.

Your favourite CEO of all time Mr Swan is now at the Lions reeking havoc with ex pies like Beams.


No, just seeing if you really understand football (or professional sport for that matter). Do you think you do?
