Oh well, better them than my club. It is a bit of soap opera at Tigerland.

Agree on Voss doing a great job proving a few doubter wrong about new senior coaches in their first year. I really can't see why Matlhoise would leave Collingwood, they're gunna win the flag this yearnow, didn't you get the email? :-) Agree on Brian Royal he has been around the traps in the assistant role for many years, perhaps for a reason. It is sure to be a coaching merry go around, even new GC coach Guy Mckenna mas been mooted as a good candidate for Richmond. Wouldn't like to see Wallace go to GC as head coach in a direct swap.

Michael Voss coming straight out of commentating to coaching has proven an AFL coach these days is more a manager who makes sure his crew (the assistant coaches) are doing their jobs. Bucks wouldn't be out of his depth. Richmond is a high profile club who needs a high profile coach - which could be bad news for Campbell / Rawlings/ King / McRae / Royal who are more than qualified to take on the job. Also, if Brian Choco Royal doesn't get this gig, he'll never get one. He has been in a position at three clubs now where the former Bulldog from Bairnsdale has had a chance to get the top gig. My tip is the Tigers would go for someone young and energetic to take the young side towards 3-4 years' time. I'm sure the Tiger faithful would love to have their former greats in King or Campbell at the helm. Malthouse to Richmond and Buckley to Collingwood?
