ABL coaches in past decade.

Can anyone list the men's and women's ABL coaches for each club over the last ten years?
Does anyone stand out in either?
What is the best sequence of wins for a coach?
What has been the most successful strategy in obtaining club success, coaching turnovers regularly or coach longevity?
Who was the unluckiest coach to get the flick?
Now, no sitting on the fence and giving only one name, who do you rate as the best men's and women's coach of the last ten years?

From a vague memory:

North Men - 2000: Richard Orlick, 2001: Phil Smyth, 2002/3: Mark Williamson
North Women - Dean Kinsman for a few years maybe 2000-2003 until he went to Fville
Fville women had Kay Flynn prior to Dean
Norwood Men had patch for 2001/2
Mavs men: Kym Goodenough from start to Richard Hill
Sturt women: Richard Hill for one year... maybe 2002/3ish before he went to Mavs
Noarlunga Men: Travis Leaver/Ben Osbourne for one year around 2002 or 3
West Women: Phil Smyth prior to John Gillies for 2 or 3 years
Norwood Women had Vicki Valk player coach 2000 for a couple of years, then Chalk, then Brendan Kellaway
Mavs Women had Kinghorn prior to Mike...

Geez its hard to place what years these coaches were there, but I remember them being on the sidelines at some time in the decade.

A little off Graeme.

Paul Barton was the Mavs mens coach from 98 or 99 on to Richard Hill.

anon 188,
Stayed 2 or 3 years too long and has made it almost impossible for a new coach to recruit talent to a perennial cellar dweller. Some very talented players have left and probably will continue to leave. If the length of coaching time is correct, it's a long time for a club management to sit on their hands and settle for bottom place but still you can't blame the coach for accepting the job.

I don't know about the situation specifically, but maybe no-one else wants the job? I don't think people line up to coach ABA to be honest.

When did Boti last coach a top senior side?

lol, yeah that is the guy..
He would change from an Australian accent, to an American one, and back to an Aussie all in the space of 1 timeout.

No wonder the lads could not understand him!

When did Boti have any idea about coaching and the real world?
He should stick to 'journalism', if that's what you call, it.
