Assistant Coach movement

[Bulldog Revolution]

Someone mentioned on another thread that Ben Hart would be joining the Pies as an assistant so I thought it might be worth starting a thread on the assistant coaching carousel

So what we know:

Sanderson from Cats to Crows
McCartney from Dons to Dogs
Neeld from Pies to Dees

Berbakov from Saints to Swans

Neil Craig sought after by Dees, Tigers, Lions etc

Allan Richardson won't be happy if he does.

Given Brendan McCartney's age and being new to AFL senior coaching, Gary Ayres with his wide exoeriences would seem to be a good fit for the Bulldogs. It has been hard to fault his achievements with Port Melbourne and I am sure he would come back much wiser after senior AFL coaching roles with Geelong and the Adelaide Crows. Interesting to see the number of assistant coaches now stepping up as senior coaches with Scott Watters also highly fancied for the St. Kilda job.

No thanks for Ayres for me. Think his ego will get in the way.

One would assume Ross Lyon would've had a hand in that.

Marks not a bad bloke actually he has a lot to do with meeting suburban footy clubs pushing "good sports" which is to do with ie alcohol management and basically the right way to run a club.

I guess whether the existing assistants had contracts or not was the key.

In our case Monty & Williams do, Dean doesn't.
