Who do we want to coach us and who do we think will?
For me it's Hinkley after Port sack him (best available).
Remember he was neck and neck with Watters for this role in 2011, with Richo a distant third in that race.
At least we would play entertaining footy under Hinkley and take the game on.
It looks like the club will make the cautious call and appoint Ratten, rather than risk alienating members with Scott.
It's a big ho hum from me, with more of the same shoddy execution and excuse making, albeit with a more passionate voice.

Re: Who do we want to coach us and who do we think will?
I honestly have no idea what Ratten is likely to do differently, how likely those intentions will actually translate into outcomes, and how relevant such outcomes will be to the conditions in 2020. I suppose none of us do but I hope that some of the people on the team appointing him do do. (Grammar?)
So the news outlets say Ratts, I guess it’s a forgone conclusion for us right now.

You're quite brilliant Shane, yeah..terrific!

Re: Who do we want to coach us and who do we think will?
I'm beginning to lean toward Robert Harvey.
We don't know who the next messiah might be, the next Barassi, Sheedy, Jeans or Clarkson. But I doubt it will be Ratten, he's a safe bet, but not likely our saviour.
Robert Harvey may have the ability to take the club back to it's roots, St Kilda for St Kilda people, run by St Kilda people with passion for the club.
Ideally he would get strong support from Nick Riewoldt, Shane Warne, Brendan Goddard, Luke Ball etc .... get St Kilda people back to run the club.

Re: Who do we want to coach us and who do we think will?
Tend to agree with the sentiment on here that more than the coach and playing list needs to change for 2020...so does it matter? Anyone but Brad Scott.

If we give Dixon the arse we will come out on top.
"Now the ball is loose, it gives St. Kilda a rough chance. Black. Good handpass. Voss. Schwarze now, the defender, can run and from a long way".....

Ratten. He’ll get the best out of what he’s got. Good solid bloke and a people person.

Re: Who do we want to coach us and who do we think will?
I dont think Harvey is the answer. If he was that good he'd be coaching already.
Ratten has what it takes. He cant help it if Richo farked things beyond repair
