Lyon is confident the Richmond coaching job will be heavily sought after, even if the club is out of premiership contention.
“The job is great because the club is great. This is a great football club of the AFL, they’re in the heartland of the sporting precinct, they’ve got their facilities sorted, they’ve got a supporter base the envy of most,” he said.
“I think there’s work to be done (on the list). I don’t share the opinion of some that they’re going to be back contending really quickly. I think they’ve got a bit of work to do.
“They won three premierships in four years and everything clicked together … I think they’re (now) going to be middle of the table.
“People will then go ‘Collingwood came back from 17th’ and that’s true and a coach can change things quickly, but they have got some of that generational talent around.
“Scott Pendlebury is not Trent Cotchin too. He’s still at the top level, while Cotchin’s magnificent career is coming to an end.”
