Agree with your assessment dedja.

I wonder if they said to him last night, “end of season we want to part ways” and he said “may as well do it now” more so than them just sacking him now.

I suspect that’s exactly what happened. I respect the fact that he declined and fronted up to face the music.

Yep that seems the most likely version of events. Be surprised if they decided to dismiss him instantly after the win vs instantly dismissing him after the loss to St Kilda.

Appears they finally came to a decision that he wouldn't be coaching next year, informed him, and then he has said well I'll go straight away.

Coached them for 9 years and been there 11

That’s a fair stretch
