Frawley set to head the coaches' union
Caroline Wilson | October 8, 2008

DANNY Frawley is poised to replace Neale Daniher as boss of the AFL Coaches Association in a widening role that will focus on fast-tracking qualified assistant coaches for the expanded competition.

Frawley is understood to have met Daniher and AFLCA executive members Paul Roos, Neil Craig and Mark Williams on Monday for talks that also marked the advancement of a pivotal new agreement between the AFL and the coaches working towards a multimillion-dollar funding agreement.

The Age understands that the coaches' association has pushed for an annual funding agreement worth $3 million over three years as recognition of the coaches' value to the game and the lack of adequate development for coaching assistants.

Frawley, 45, who coached Richmond for five years from 2000 to 2004, would also oversee renewed focus on supporting outgoing senior coaches who have struggled to cope without the daily routine of the job and have not been adequately utilised by the system.

Securing the popular Frawley, who played 240 games for St Kilda and was the Saints' longest-serving captain, would be something of a coup for the coaches' association, which has lost Daniher to a senior football position with West Coast after just one year.

Frawley, who has worked in the media since departing Richmond, and for Lindsay Fox's transport group, has also coached part-time at Hawthorn and is believed to have been sounded out for a full-time position as the Hawks' forward coach.
