It’s a no brainer to get him back if we can. Reckon the if we can part is the challenge. Cotch seems like the kind of guy who would like to spread his wings a bit. Doubt he would want to come back to Tigerland so soon but would be worth asking!

Gives Cotch credit and cornhole would've been squirming hearing this.

Love it..... Raynor talking to a bloke who drags people down about a bloke who builds people up!

I can't imagine a world exists where Cornes is ever asked to address any group, be it sporting or otherwise, on leadership or selflessness.

But would Yze want him there?
If he wants to build his own side and do it his way he may not want former players around

I’d be concerned if Yze didn’t want someone like Cotch around. I reckon you surround yourself with the best possible people.

there’s an old saying, if you want to be the smartest person in the room, surround yourself with dumb people

Think Cotch would prefer to work with other clubs for the time being, Lions appear a good fit atm. Maybe come back to us down the track.

Bring back Cotch. You would run through a brick wall for the chimp. Chimp knows what it takes.

I would've loved to have seen Cornes face when Raynor credited the Chimp for the help he has given him.

I agree. Like Newy, go out and find some different experiences to round out your own.
Give Cotch a few years of seeing different set ups and cultures. He can still learn from others and bring the intel back.

The Flag Whisperer will be on with Dwayne Russell after 2 today.
Once Hutchison runs his post-news ads, that'll make it around 2.45!
Expecting Cotch to confess that the genesis of Richmond's resurgence actually started in May 2015 when we beat Port Adelaide over there..... took awhile to kick in, but over the next few years Dimma went back to that moment for inspiration in every pre GF address, and the rest as they say.... is history!😏

i would generally agree, but the 2025 version of Richmond will be very different to the version Cotch knew, both on and off the field.

That said, he will probably enjoy being back part of a winning team for a couple of years. He can come back 2027.
