[Grantysghost]

ADELAIDE playing great Simon Goodwin is expected to become a front-runner in the selection of Western Bulldogs new coach to replace the departed Rodney Eade.

Goodwin, 34, is tipped to join hot favourite Leon Cameron and current Dogs caretaker Paul Williams in a short-list to be interviewed next month for the Bulldogs job.

Isn't he Fantasia's good friend?

Does that mean James will have to step back from his position on the selection committee?

Leon Cameron is also good friends with Fantasia.

Surely we're not so pathetic that we will give the jobs to Fantasia's mate?

Surely we are.

I just hope that whoever they select is based on performance, presentation etc and everyone goes through the same due process. I doubt our process is barely off the ground, so I'm sure these articles will pop up regularly after we speak to each potential candidate.

I thought I heard that when Goodwin first moved to Melb he stayed with James until he got settled.... They are said to be very close.

I have no problems hiring Goodwin if he is the best candidate, but I wouldn't be happy with this decision if James was still on the selection committee.

I believe he will be on the committee along with Garlick, a personnel consultant (probably Laurie Serafini as he does a lot of these) and an interdependent football person (last time it was Walls).

Ghost Dog you do realise Walls was on the Commitee that hired Eade.

You do realise Walls told the club Eade would be the best man for the job.

Matthews is already on a committee either crows or melbourne (can't recall)

THE Western Bulldogs have appointed Tom Harley and Chris Grant to join its coach selection process.

Harley and Grant will play a key role in finding a replacement for Rodney Eade on a coaching sub-committee that also includes CEO Simon Garlick (chairman), football chief James Fantasia and board member Geoff Walsh.

President David Smorgon will not be part of the initial process, but as head of the board will have to tick off any decision.
