If true, I think it's probably wise that he's made that decision. As a three time premiership coach, he's really got nothing else to prove and it's likely to benefit Richmond if he hands over to someone with more enthusiasm.
And I do respect how he changed his attitude in 2017, from someone who was apparently an obsessive micromanager, driving himself and those around him crazy, to someone who was able to delegate responsibilities, trust those around him a whole lot more, and generally make Richmond an enjoyable place to be.
