Experienced, successful and no real threat for the big job?? Even Justin Leppisch?? Hard edge, been with successful clubs and has a few clues about the caper and also not interested in the ‘big job’. We need a tough hardened support mechanism that obviously isn’t there at the moment.....
I'd be interested in Leppitsch, because he played in successful teams, at least later in his career, and because he was part of the recent Richmond resurgence - something that would be relevant to us, as we try to put more pieces of the puzzle in place. In fact, in some ways he's seen it all. Dismalness in the early years with the Bears and Lions, not great success as a senior coach, but success with later teams and as an assistant. We could do a lot worse IMO.
I have no interest in him or anyone else because he will supposedly toughen up the players, not accept crap etc., notions which I find lacking any real insight or common sense.
