Would be a great get to support Goody imo.

Supported Chris Scott through his first year at the helm

We all know how that year turned out..

Would be a great addition

He has a weekly spot on Fox Footy. Did anybody watch him tonight? Was he asked about this?

Said he wasn't interested in the Lions job but wanted to spend some time as an assistant coach before trying his hand as a senior coach again.

Would be a great addition, hopefully we can get him across the line.

That sounds like a polite way to turn down what would likely be a poisoned chalice for him.

Can't open the hyperlink without a subscription. (Looks like I will have to go and buy a coffee and read the Hun there!) ☕️

There was a thread, where most people were of the opinion he was going to collingwood as he is mates with Bucks

Yes i'd never buy it either.

I'm sure he'll get over it.  If Sanderson ends up being a terrific assistant coach to Goodwin, then I'm happy to Vince to be annoyed about it.  He'll only be on the list for another couple of years.

Sanderson would only be with us for 1-2 years...he wants a senior gig

Given Richmond and Collingwood could be looking for new coaches next year I would be surprised if he was with anyone as an assistant longer than a year. You could even argue Freo if they dont find a way to rebound with their injury list shorter. Thats not to mention the Suns if they fall in a heap again next year Rocket will be under pressure, injuriy list has protected him for now but that will only last so long.... And Scott will be good as gone if North fall as we expect them to, cant imagine him being tasked with the rebuild. Add in Hinkley if Port dont improve. Brissy probably firing Leppa now to get the best available because  there very well could be a large selection of coaching roles available next year.

Can he realistically expect that to happen?  He was sacked after three years, and even wrote this article on why he thought he got the sack.  It's tough at top and only a very small number of these opportunities come along, I expect once you've crapped in the nest once, you're pretty unlikely to get invited back in to it again.

Didn't seem to bother Cross...with McCartney.

McCartney wants a senior gig, even went for one last year. Any problem with him?

Oh I have no problem with us getting him. I dont mind an assistant coming in for a year. If he gets promoted to a senior role then that probably means he was worth having for that year. I was just agreeing that it would be very unlikely he would be here longer than that

[Redleg 40,907]

We would have to be a chance to get him, as if he goes to Pies and they have another poor year, Buckley will get the chop.Then new Coach could bring in all his own assistants and BS could get the chop with Buckley.

Go to google and enter " Dee's join race for Sanderson" and you should be able to read the story.

[P-man 13,366]

Well he certainly rates the list. Has been talking it up in the media for the last two years.

[Mach5 4,767]

Evidently McCartney must rate his ability.

[bing181 9,220]

We can only speculate, but would be a great get. Hope PJ can work some of his magic.

I am a big fan of people who have been to the big dance (ie got themselves a senior coaching gig), been rejected and reflected on their own performance and then come back with some humility. He seems to me someone that would be significantly better the next time round as a coach (or assistant). 

Yes from me,

Name me one. Was listening to SEN yesterday and they were discussing how first time coaches who get sacked never get another gig. Also saying they should be able to. Mentioned Ratten and s couple of other currents who it happened to. 

Given that history you'd want to be careful being a first time coach going into a basket case like Lions. That's why I always thought Roosy was the only person to fix us.

Either that, or Buckley gets the chop and Sanderson gets the gig

Unlikely as a mate of Bucks, but you never know

I was really trying to equate it to life and didn't word it well. It clearly happens in areas like politics quite a bit.

In footy I guess Norm Smith was rejected as coach of Melbourne and went to Fitzroy before returning to melbourne as a highly successful coach. Not quite the same but has some bearing.

You're right though. Very few coaches get a second chance. Malcolm Blight might be one of them that was successful a second time around..
