SOME people opt for a 'New year, new me' attitude and the AFL coaches are the same, laying out their plans for 2017. AFL.com.au has compiled the New Year's resolutions for each senior coach.
Don Pyke
Not to read The Advertiser.
Chris Fagan
Not to buy a house in Brisbane. At least not yet.
Brendon Bolton
Keep looking for that geneticist so that we can clone Jacob Weitering.
Nathan Buckley
New car for Eddie, new golf clubs for Perty, new Rolex for Walshy, new iPads for the board members ...
John Worsfold
Making Essendon great again.
Ross Lyon
I'm only going to ask Nat Fyfe about his contract negotiations once a week.
Chris Scott
Whatever Paddy Dangerfield wants.

Rodney Eade
My new motto is 'two of everything', so if this dual-captaincy caper pays off, it'll be two scoops of ice cream every time I'm walking through Broadbeach.
Leon Cameron
Don't bother those building the new trophy cabinets, but remind them to leave lots of space.
Alastair Clarkson
I can keep a secret if you can, Dusty.
Simon Goodwin
Remind myself on a regular basis it won't be all doom and gloom if we lose to the Saints in round one.

Brad Scott
Resist the temptation to change the players' gym radio from Triple J to Gold 104.
Ken Hinkley
Not to listen to 5AA.
Damien Hardwick
To keep some packing boxes in the corner of the office. Just in case.
Alan Richardson
No matter what they're serving in the club cafeteria, after my time in the ashram, I'll stick to my rice, chapatti and dhal.
John Longmire
I'll only take my autographed Isaac Heeney picture with me to bed once a week. Promise.
Adam Simpson
Ask Clarko if I can have Cyril Rioli too. You never know.
Luke Beveridge
I'll only watch the Grand Final DVD one more time for 'tactical' research.
