Rating Every Coaches' Tenure out of 10 - Scotty & Goss (08/07/2024)

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no to you by Experian.

Scotty and I have given ourselves a task overnight. We've got to come up with our coach rankings out of 10. That's a matter how long their tenure has been. So it can be 17 weeks a day in Hardwick, who will be 15 years for John Longway. Just to see how they're going. Let's start from the bottom. Let's go to Adam Uzay. - Well, it's not pretty for who's giving him three. - Yeah, a three out of 10 for me. 17% is working with a very horrid list, and I don't see any great upside, and they're going to lose a lot of experienced players. Martin, maybe Bolton, maybe Baker. There's a lot of pain there. If you reckon West Coast are in pain, Richmond are worse, but they have got three premiership under their belt in the last five or six years. All righty, let's go to next. - Well, taking all of those premiership out of the halls here, football club's not a great start. - Yeah, and we're not talking about the club, we're talking about his coaching. So at the moment, he's got a three out of 10 for both of us, North Melbourne. And our second last, which means we're focusing on Alistair Clarks. - Three foot Clarko. - Three out of 10 for Clarko. - I'm not sure he's a rebuilder to be pivotal in us, but in saying that, the last three weeks are pretty good. - I agree. So three out of 10 on the win loss ratio. All righty. - Excellent. - Now, Adam Simpson, overall, his tenure. - Well, I know that people are going to be angry right now, but I'm giving him a seven, premiership, five times finals, 11 years, premiership coach, all Australian coach. I was second in 15. I think sevens are pretty solid one. It would probably be more, but the last three years are going to really, really hurt. - The last three years have really hurt. He's had four years of 70% or better win loss record in his time. Not many coaches has both. - Yeah, that's pretty impressive. - So he's got a flag under his belt, seven out of 10. But yeah, it's been a pretty tough watch over the last three years. All righty, Matthew Nix is the coach of Adelaide. - Five for Nixi, five. I thought when he came in, they were in trouble and I thought they were playing above themselves. I only missed the finals last year because of an error by the competition. - And, but they've gone a little backwards this year, five for Nixi. - Four out of 10 for him. He's a hundredth game coming up, I think. Or he's a hundred game, he's done a hundred games. 35%, not doesn't wash it with me, hard in a two team down, but I'll give him a four out of 10. Then we go to Ross Lyon in his time, his rebirth at St. Kilda. - Two. Two. Seriously, I, you know, barring the weekend where they, a year two because, barring the weekend where they were okay, and because they played a different style, I think they actually went against the coaches' wishes the way they played, I think that they are the worst team to watch play football now. - Five. - And they won't win a premiership. - Five out of 10, yeah, five out of 10 for me. Did you get him? - Stop it. - They were in the finals last year. - Yep, how'd they go? - They still made the finals last year and a lot of clubs don't. - Two. - Five out of 10 for me, you do your hardest. - Yeah, all right, hard on him. I've given Ross Lyon a five out of 10, sort of a surprise. Many people think I've got it in for Ross. Let's go to Hawthorne and let's go to Sam Mitchell. - Seven. - Seven. - What? - Absolute seven. You know, he took over a list which Clark gave destroyed and then they ripped it to the absolute bare bones and they are now one game out of the eight. They are so far ahead of any of Adelaide, West Coast, North and Richmond. It's not funny. They had to say, "Kilda, I think it's been terrific." Six out of 10 for me. - Oh, so it's not too bad. - 37% winning record. Yeah, he's made some hard calls. - Well, you're coming in with a three or four. - No, he's coaching well, but certainly not a seven. - All right, that's good. - I've been very generous. Gold Coast sons next. - Well, Demar, I've given Demar six and a half. Six and a half because he's turned their team into a fortress at home. But as he said, they need to grow up. I think Gold Coast are in contention. - Five out of 10 for me. Five out of 10. They're hopeless on the road. He hasn't turned that around and he has to take responsibility for that. Luke Beveridge. - Bevo seven, seven, nah, six, six. I've changed that to a six for Bevo. He won a flag for that was 80 years ago, nine seasons ago. And I think they're better than they are. So six for Bevo. - Seven for Bevo for me. 55% winning record. Premish ship. He's been around a while and yeah, he doesn't have many bad ones in regards to the year. I think he had one bad one in 2022. What he got next is our, so I'm a good one. I've gone in the alphabetical order, so you throw me around here. So I'm going seven and a half for goody. Seven and a half. Obviously the first flag in a million years in 2021. 21 was here, wasn't it? Well, 20 was it here. - What'd you give him? - Seven and a half. - I gave him eight. I gave him eight out of 10. There's not too many bad years. Apart from 2019, which was a stinker, recalibration has been a lot going on that football club. I think he's done a remarkable job. I'll give him eight out of 10. So he's put a lot of cuteos there. Alrighty, Craig McCray. - Nine. - Nine picked up rabble and they were in all sorts of strife, hated in the place, and now everyone loves the place, won the flag last year. Obviously nine for fly. - I'll give him eight out of 10, 70% winning record, four or two in the finals. I'm not so sure about where the people love places is enough to give you an extra percent in a coach. - Well what he does is, what he does is a coach. - Well he just won the flag last year. - Everyone loves calling him. - And he's been there three years. - Next is... - Three years? - Three years. - Do you want to have? - Adam Kingsley. - King has six, I think, six for GWS. They've got an elite list. There's no doubt about that. It should be better. And you know what, ask me again at the end of the year. My challenge. - Six out of 10 for me. Then we go to Chris Fagan. - Seven. Just can't get it done. Been really good. - Yep. - But just can't get it done. - Six out of 10 for me. Port Adelaide. Ken Hinckley. - Uh, Ken Hinckley is a seven. - Seven for me. - Continues to play finals and be competitive again. Just can't get it done. - Gotta stop crying. Chris Scott. Chris Scott's been eight and a half. - Yeah. Nine for me. Nine for me. A flag. 70% winning record. - Two. - A two flag. So he's a star. And then we go Brad Scott. - Brad Scott has been very good in his two years. Seven and a half. - Eight for me. So he's similar in any way we're looking at this. - What? - Justin Long, you are. - I've given J-Lo a seven. - Yep. - I played a final, won a final. They were poor last year. But right back in the mix this year, in a short tenure. I've got to give a seven, leaning to a six. But I go seven because I just can't be bothered with the three-mail backlash. Michael Voss, Carlton. - Eight and a half. For Vossi, picked up Ravel again. - Eight for me. Outstanding. Yeah, the real deal. - And you know, weathered a horrible storm last year when they're all going burko again. 'Cause they're lunatics. - John Long my. - Uh, we've been here a long time. - Eight. - Seven for me. Gotta do more. This is the year. - Yep. - This is the year. - Good. - Back to back losses hasn't helped. - That's good. - Very, very good. - Anyway. - So there you go. We'll put our, out of 10. And it is for their coaching tenure. If you've got an opinion of that, let us know, zero, four, eight, seven, seven, seven, three, six, seven, three, six. Mark Duffield. In after eight o'clock, Paul Hazleby will be coming off the long run. Don Pike. Just chew that over in your little heads today. If you're talking about replacements and Dean Cox is everyone's number one. - It's because he's available. Possibly. - Don Pike. - It's not far from the CEO office to the coaching office. - It's not stupid. - Nah, it might be stupid. - It's strange, but it wouldn't be a bad decision. - It's a very good point. - David's going to join us tomorrow. - Yeah. - I'm going to see what Ox has to say about June and McGovern and his bloody ribs. - West Coast you're going to put off a player? Who do you reckon that'll be? Anyone will do. [MUSIC PLAYING]
