Coaching is one of the most stressful occupations in sport, and there is no exception to the rule when it comes to footy.
Over the years there have been some moments that have shocked the sport and others which have sent fans into laughter, with the job sometimes getting the better of coaches.
With footy over for another year what better time than now to count down the best coaching incidents of all time, whether it be brawls, sprays or frosty confrontations with the media.
Yes, we are aware that there are thousands of coaching incidents that were lucky enough not to be caught on film and were probably 100 times harsher than the entries on this list, but we'll just have to work with what we have on record.
A disclaimer before we get stuck into it - most of these entries contain coarse language or violence, so proceed at your own caution.
Without any more delay, let's get into it.
4. Tony Jewell vs Peter 'Percy' Jones (Richmond vs Carlton, 1980)ย ย
In a qualifying final showdown between the two arch-enemies, both coaches came to blows in a heated display.
On-field incidents boiled over off-field with Blues coach Peter 'Percy' Jones verbally abusing Richmond team motivator Rudi Webster during the quarter-time break.
After riling up Tigers coach Tony Jewell, Jones and Jewell started towards each other with fists swinging.
The two were broken up and are now good friends however, as Jewell recounts in the attached interview, he did not appreciate the obscenities that Percy was hurling his way.
Thankfully the two are friends now and have put the incident behind them, but the incident is now one of the most infamous 80s footy stoushes.
