Coach of the year

Will add more if needed

They did this on MMM yesterday so I'm interested with what we think as they had Hird, Lyon and Hinkley as the top 3 in different orders but

Can cast 2 votes

Hinkley just in front of Lyon IMO

nostradamus · July 22, 2013, 05:12:09 PM

Hird easily

Nige · July 22, 2013, 05:15:13 PM

If it's not Ken Hinkley, then it's nobody imo.

Kind of an odd question lol

At this stage in the season Hinkley is a mile above everyone

For me it's Hinkley comfortably, has taken Port from a rabble in 2012 to a side that is now contesting the top 8. As a Crows man its bitter sweet but I take my hat off to him has done a superb job. Hinkley easily over the others.

No love for Guy McKenna? Gold Coast were under alot of pressure to perform this year, and they delivered.

Bluey a close second for me, I just think that what Ken's done with Port has been fantastic. He finally got a coaching gig and has had a very good first year in the job.

Lyon for me. His side's been constantly ravaged by injury and they're still up there.

Longmire as well for a similar reason.

I'm not sure how much of port's progress is hinkley tbh- last year they showed significant improvement as well (even though primus got sacked).

Hinkley for the Job he has done with Port just in advance of McKenna who has responded to the pressure heaped on him for the Suns to perform this year.

Mark neeld? :P to take an already woeful side even further backwards as he did takes some serious skill.
I mean someone that can come in, start swinging the axe at high draft pick players, lose senior players, give the captaincy to a kid, hire his mates to sit along side him in the coaches box, recruit washed up rejects from other clubs.. All of this and keep his job for a year and a half.. Some effort!

Hahaha quinny Neeld really fkd the demons over didn't he.

I voted Ross Lyon. He's been missing stars for the while yea but still doing very well.

Next vote went to Hinkley. No doubt he did a lot but also gotta credit Darren Burgess aswell.

T Dog · July 23, 2013, 11:00:05 AM

Big Johnnie Longmire gets my vote.
