WESTERN Bulldogs champion Chris Grant will work alongside the coach he helped choose in his new job as football director at Whitten Oval.

Grant, who played 341 games for the Dogs, was elected to the club's board last night unopposed and will assume the role of football director.

Grant was a key player on the Bulldogs’ coach selection sub-committee that appointed Brendan McCartney as the replacement for sacked coach Rodney Eade.

“I was involved in the selection committee for the new senior coach and I think it gave me a passion back for getting involved in the football club, and whilst it is a different position than I’ve ever held at a club before I am really excited about it," Grant said of his new job.

“I think it’s a great opportunity with a new senior coach and a new direction with a great group of players, to get involved and get behind the club.

And thats the key word and it was the press who insinuated it, then interviewed all the ones they said were on his ticket and everyone of them denied it.
