Coleman Medalist ranks every AFL coach by their level of job security

Coleman Medalist Scott Cummings has ranked all 16 current AFL coaches by their job security as we approach the end of the 2022 home-and-away season.

Two coaches have already been sacked this season, with the landscape unlikely to shift further in the off-season, barring further developments.

Obviously, GWS caretaker coach Mark McVeigh and North Melbourne’s Leigh Adams have been excluded from the list.

From most to least safe, here’s Cummings’ list from SEN WA Breakfast.

1. Chris Scott (Geelong)

“He’s on top of the ladder, signed until 2024.”

2. Craig McRae (Collingwood)

“He’s also signed until 2024.”

3. Simon Goodwin (Melbourne)

“He won a flag last year, signed until 2024 and I think he’s got the right people around him and Melbourne is still a good side.”

4. John Longmire (Sydney)

“They love him. The president loves him, the board loves him, the CEO loves him, the players love him, he’s safe. He will decide when he’s done.”

5. Justin Longmuir (Fremantle)

“Signed until the end of next year.”

6. Adam Simpson (West Coast)

“I don’t think he is going anywhere else and I don’t think the Eagles want him to. He’s had as many reasons as a coach has ever had for a poor year and he’s signed until 2024 so I reckon he’s absolutely safe.”

7. Damien Hardwick (Richmond)

“Again, signed until 2024.”

8.Stuart Dew (Gold Coast)

“Just re-signed until 2024.”

9. Sam Mitchell (Hawthorn)

10. Chris Fagan (Brisbane)

“He’s only signed until the end of next year. I remember that’s high. I reckon he could be a bit further down the list. They want a big finals campaign.”

11. Michael Voss (Carlton)

“You know why he’s at 11? Because it’s Carlton and they go through them and they put all these expectations on themselves and if they don’t match them, they sack someone.”

12. Ken Hinkley (Port Adelaide)

“You know why he’s at 12? You know why he’s not at 18 after David Koch’s comments on the weekend? Because Kochie is the barber’s cat. He is full of p–s and wind. He says it every year. Everyone’s safe. He doesn’t make any decisions. Hinkley probably should be sitting at 15 or 16, I’ve got him at 12 because I don’t think Koch has the pills to make a tough decision.”

13. Luke Beveridge (Western Bulldogs)

“He’s signed until the end of next year.”

14. Matthew Nicks (Adelaide)

“I think he’s doing a good job and he’s got some good young players coming through, but I don’t think he’s rock solid. I don’t think his future is set in stone.

15. Brett Ratten (St Kilda)

“Even though he’s signed until 2024.”

16. Ben Rutten (Essendon)
