Those that coach 10 years that take a year off are three times better coaches... in year 11.

I think what coaching is all about, is taking players and analyzing there ability, put them in a position where they can excel within the framework of the team winning. And I hope that I've done that in my 33 years as a head coach.

I think one of the things about being a good coach is to recognise when you have given all that you can. In fact there should be some sort of unspoken law that says that a coach cannot have anyone for three or four years - if you have not passed on most of the stuff you know in that time, then you are not doing a good job.

Even though I retired from coaching, I still believe that is my calling.

So I don't really believe that how many years you've had in the league determines how well your players play... Coaching is coaching.

All I can say is that I'm going to try to coach the way I've coached in the past. And if it ends up not being good enough, then so be it.

I like playing. I wouldn't be a good coach. I don't have the patience to be a coach.
