Well said. There has been a lot of "crazy Vossy" talk in relation to trades, but more than one person has input into trading. These days especially with list managers and the like the coach alone wouldn't dictate the whole thing.
Also, Voss was a young and inexperienced coach and coaching the club he was a legend of. Not an easy thing to do. History has told us that senior coaches with little or no experience are unlikely to succeed. I wasn't a fan of Voss coaching us but am coming around. He is a winner. He demands success. He is now experienced. He is older and wiser. I think if it is him, he'll do well.

More from BF:

I’m told it’s still Clarkson. Expect him to clearly leave the door open for a return to coaching next year when interviewed this evening.

People are jumping the gun here! It’s still Clarkson.


Between this and what's going on at CFMEU HQ, I ain't getting much work done

Voss wasn't bad at the coaching caper imo.

He came across as a good tactician, and good feel for the game.

He had a chance at a flag with the addition of Fevola to Brown as KP's and they looked dangerous.

The Fev stuffed up and hospitalised, younger players left the place which didn't even have a proper gym, the old players retiring the Board had enough, like we did with Teague.

Had a piss up...I mean picnic yesterday with a Hawks family down the beach.
He was partners with one of the Hawks Board members.
Had a great chat about Carlton and Hawks issues with coaches etc over a couple.

It seems they are not a happy team at Hawthorn with this messy and disrespectful divorce with Clarkson.
It has all the makings of the Malthouse Buckley hand over....might work, might not work.

Jeff Kennett has blood on his hands.
He effectively planned Clarkson's end.
He must have thought he had the soft cap under control for next year, and Clarkson would do as he's told.

Clarkson not happy with situation, and doesn't have a problem with Mitchell.
Clarkson got what he wanted from Jeff. Played his cards really well.
Effectively, formally ending the contract and being paid out for next year, to get out of there.

Clarkson wants Hawks to pay for next year whether he coaches or not.
I get the feeling its something to do with having the last laugh. 2 bulls want to win the battle.
Kennett, with the support of the AFL, doesn't want to handover money to Clarkson is he's paid to coach elsewhere.
Kennett agreed to Clarkson leaving early and thought he wouldn't have to pay for next year because Clarko is a man in demand.

I got the feeling that the line that Clarkson is not interested in coaching Carlton is bullshit..
That's a Herald Sun led, SEN copied headline for clicks.
Clarkson is still in our stratosphere. It seems he wants his money...and the choice to do whatever he chooses without having to pay it back.
I'm sure he's gettable....money talks...but I don't think Jeff is the type who will pay Clarko for next year, on Jeff's terms.

Not a good way to treat a legendary coach.
A lot of hawks people not happy with how this has been played out.

He had a worse winning record than Teague. Question is, why change, especially when Clarko is around in a year if that's the case? You get a new coach to upgrade. Ok if he struggled a little, no issue, but he set Brisbane back years.

Best get used to Voss the Boss everyone!

(Christ Almighty the melts on BF)

Presumably Voss is a much better coach than he was however many years ago.

I just hope we dont get desperate enough to call Ross Lyon and just give him the job now.

Says a lot where he feels entitled to not present for a job. Red Flags I think. He is too arrogant.

Give Voss credit, he gets knocked down but keeps on trying.

Good role model I reckon.

There are no guarantees with anyone we get . Everything needs to click.

Well we'll see to that pretty quickly...

Ollie Wines on Michael Voss: "I don't think I've met a person more motivating than Vossy. He's run our resilience & leadership program over the past 12-18 months & what he's done with our group & the connection & trust he's built within that playing group is enormous."

Rumoured to be a 4 year deal sub $500k per year.

If true (and with Teague now off our soft cap) we can hopefully invest more in quality assistants.

Its pretty good timing to hear that type of thing.

Honestly, I get why we would be going after clarkson

But I'm good with the decision if the likes of parkin, diesel and now cook have agreed upon him.

He brings lappin, power is already at the club, all qe need is black and we will have one he'll of a midfield ... coaching team

THIS.
The man has a winners mentality.
He'll be far better prepared this time

I hope he will do wonders with our midfield too. Someone like Cripps, Walsh and Dow will really have the ultimate midfielder to learn from. Maybe he may put Stocker in the midfield. They both have gigantic thighs. Haha.

I am getting behind this selection now so I hope it does happen.

I dont want Lyon as the head coach. Unless he comes on as a mentor to Voss that is. Now that would be ideal.
