    From memory both roles were offered pretty much at the same time, so it was an easy decision.

    He has said he wants to coach so taking that role after missing out on a plethora senior jobs doesn't look good to me.

    He prefers to be the main coach but will take an alternative role if he can't get the main role. He was offered an Adelaide role over a month ago but has held out. I guess staying in Victoria would be preferable not only for him but his family.

    Meh, his time was up as a coach, gotta take whatever's available.

    Are these director of coaching role of any real value? Probably not.

    Is this an assistant coaching role or similar to what the pies are offering?

    FORMER Western Bulldogs coach Rodney Eade will fill the director of coaching role at Collingwood passed up by Michael Malthouse.

    Eade, 53, has accepted the Magpies post and the appointment will be announced in the next day or two.

    It ends weeks of speculation about his future.

    Adelaide had also shown strong interest in Eade as a consultant/assistant to Brenton Sanderson.

    It is understood the Brisbane Lions sounded out Eade to work in a senior role with Michael Voss.

    St Kilda had also included him on its list of possible coaches and Eade was due to be interviewed by the Saints as soon as tomorrow.

    Great role for Rocket.
    Not sure as a rookie coach I'd like someone looking over my shoulder, will be fascinating if the Pies took a tumble next year.The GF result is probably good for Bucks, he would have been on a hiding to nothing next season.
