Banger Caretaker Coach of Pies

[Banger9798]

Bring them to their knees Harvs

[Winmar7]

Will be interesting to see how he goes, will it silence or strengthen the calls from those who want him to come back to Moorabbin...?

[Bowey Boy]

Maybe Bucks can be an assistant.

[axcellence]

Where is the puke emoji! Happy for Banger.. but surely, it could have been another team!

Robert Harvey to be Collingwood's head coach.
I can't bear it.

I need to go back to bed for a lie down.

Buckley’s long-term assistant and friend Robert Harvey will coach out the remainder of the season, Collingwood said.

Banger may not be a good head coach.
Can't get all nostalgic over a former champion, he may not have the coaching ability

[darylcowie]

He coaches against the Saints in two more matches in Round 16 at the MCG.

Now I'm really torn about who to barrack for since the Filth are only 2 wins below us and could rise above us on percentage by then, the way we are going and taking our brutal run home into account.

We could end up with a higher first round draft-pick than them, maybe top 3 or 4 and give Banger's coaching career a leg up too!

[darylcowie]

If the Filth beat the smug Dees, workmanlike Dockers and us they will be a game clear ahead of us.

I like their chances of beating Freo and us atm.

[The Fireman]

funny listening to the media talking about candidates for coach...none mention Banger.

[lewdogs]

Great opportunity for him, really hope he does well. He's wanted it for a long time, crazy to think he hasn't had a crack yet.

Unfortunately for Harves the last 2 caretaker coaches that have gone on to be appointed as senior coach haven't done too well.
Shaw at North allegedly couldn't cope with the gig and bolted for the Gold Coast to look after kick to kick sessions whilst Teague is now under review at the brown baggers because his team is putrid.
I think the Shaw and Teague experience has made it harder for caretaker coaches to get promoted to the senior role going forward.

There's nobody in football I'd like to see do well more than Robert Harvey.

Me either

But I’m torn

Good luck to him - a lot of perceptions of him are inaccurate

agreed - just been handed the poison chalice
even if he does make it through the rest of the year as head coach - I would be surprised if he is part of the next coaching team

[tony74]

Take it to the bank he won’t be at the Pies next year. And before you ask- no we haven’t spoken to him yet

Agreed it’s obvious seat warming
They’ll clean sweep the coaching box now - Lyon will pick his own
Please for the love of god Tony tell me we’ll be looking also at our coaching panel but please please please DONT tell me they’d look at Barker from Carlton he’s a liability!!!

Some caretaker coaches went on to success. Roos is one that comes to mind.

[Ape_Man]

A half a season is a long time in football.

I, for one, will never underestimate Robert Harvey.

As a purported ITK, sometimes your calls don't pan out, for whatever reason.
You've been privy to certain discussions that have taken a different tack, etc.

But when it comes to an enemy club, you can't have any inside knowledge. You're just speculating like everyone else.

I was also wondering how you could be so sure.

Is tony74 only allowed to post on here when his opinions are guaranteed but everybody else posts whatever s*** they like?

[skeptic]

It’ll be really interesting to see what happens if Collingwood manage to turn things around form this point

[The Fireman]

?? Tony can post what he likes, I value his posts a bit more than anyone who just comes on here and posts whatever $hit they like.
Therefore I'm interested in what Tony knows about the Collingwood process.
Aren't you inquisitive ?

Totally. But I think we're a bit harsh on him. Every word he posts is scrutinised to death. He'll be running off to hide with Harry and Meghan if we're not careful!
