Isn’t he reputed to be on what 2-million a year?
Got two left after this?
$4 million payout?
Clubs like the Saints, North, GC are protected by the AFL’s contract payout clause?

Only 6 points out, 7 games to go. Stuey could've done it this season. Weird how they sack him after losing to the 2 best teams in the league.
They will get access to three top 10 pick kids if they didn’t make finals.
Quality kids too!
I thought they did pretty well against Port. Weird timing.
Remember when Wallace was lined up to take the Swans job? He left the Dogs....was rumoured to be Swans coach in 2003...
But then Roos did pretty well, so they had to give it to him and Wallace sat out until coming to us...
If Dimma has left, because there was overtures for him to coach GCS next year, I'll lose some respect for him.
We might turn out OK, but we tooled up for a "Last Dance". If it got too hard and he wants to try for another dynasty, and it was prearranged ......that's like lining up a girlfriend so when you divorce you got someone else to cuddle at night.

I said a little while ago that Hinkley will go to the Gold Coast allowing Carr to take over at Port.
Yeah but that all goes to *smile* if Ken takes them all the way. Even getting them to a GF makes it hard for them to move him on or Ken to jump.
I'm not. Just saying, stick with what you've got and see now instead of forecasting Dimma or anyone next would do any better.
At least see this season or Dew's contract out instead of knee-jerking. GC is a club that needs a long time to build a proper culture.
If he goes. Have no doubt Dimma will be hugely successful at Gold Coast.
Nucleus is there talent wise, with a heap more to come.
He'll set standards, get them gelling as a team, reward role players and winnings football games quickly.

Emma has now moved to Queensland. Good chance Dimma will try to get her involved.
Exactly that was view too TF.
Contracted to 2024.
3 Top kids from their academy coming in.
What was the harm in seeing this year out and make a judgment call middle of next year.
The three kids look ready made.
If we knee jerked in 16, Dimma gets sacked, who to say we see finals again or win 3 Flags.
Who to say some of our ‘guns’ would have stayed.
Who to say Lynch would have come?
We ALL know clubs thinking they have the “Messiah” arriving.
They relented to the pressure and outside noise.
That’s makes GC a BS club in my eyes with PW culture.
What they were worried about their fan base not turning up?
One thing has taught us in two scenarios in the last decade and a half.
Stick to the process and see it through.
Those two clubs that stuck to the course and vision managed to snare 6 Premierships.
Not if it’s Hinkley’s idea.
If Port are all in on Carr then they only have to offer Ken a contract too bad to accept. A couple of years, no increase in salary and the understanding that it would be his last at the club. Or he takes a 5 year deal at GC on more money, a club with a promising young list and the opportunity to enhance his own reputation by taking them to finals.
There’s always a way. It just depends on how badly Port want it to happen.
Hardwick is Gold Coast's target. They went early on Dew because Harwick is available. Port have their hands tied.
Hardwick will get a juicy 5 year deal to set himself up for life.
Where would you rather live? Gold Coast or Adelaide?

That's right. GC is not Victoria, nor even a WA, SA or Tassie where aussie rules is big. It's going to take a long, long time to build a strong foundation. We've seen a stronger club than with their previous coaches and they were progressing up.
Yep. I can't see Stuey and Dimma still good friends if Dimma gets it.
Dimma with assistant playing coaches Cotch and Dusty! Can we package up Cotch and Dusty for a swag of picks? It would be great PR for Gold Coast.
3 Time Premiership Coach. 3 Time Premiership Captain. 3 Time Norm Smith winner.

If they were to see Dew's contract out they would have to wait till the end of 2024, if they deem him not to be the right man now is the right time to do it IMO.
As a member i would be wanting change, 6 years is a significant time.
I am not concerned about Dimma. Its the rest of those in the top seats that have NFI. Remember he wont have a Peggy, Gale or Livingstone by his side.
