Dimma has been a great coach and with Brendon and Peggy in support, possibly our best ever?
Still think that after 15 years it is time for him to pack up. Every organisation needs a fresh approach and with Peggy gone and Brendon's position somewhat uncertain, this looks like a good time for Dimma to move on.
Who would replace?
Have for a time thought Fly was the obvious successor. Now it seems he is unavailable.
Next choice would be Luke Hodge. Country boy who may be ready to come back to Melbourne. Outstanding tactician, good communicator Hard-man as a player. Well respected. Brought up a Tiger.
Also like Sheds and Grigg, although like Hodge, both have little experience as a coach. This does matter of course, but not enough to shut any of these down, given their knowledge of our club, our immediate history, and their history(s) in football.
First choice would be Luke Hodge, with maybe another former player Daniel Jackson, also recruited as a senior administrator.
