If he's 1 of the 15 and he's quietly sneaked into the list of interviewees with no fuss we might as well hear what he has to say for himself.

Can tell you all this.
Richmond are after a ""senior coach"" and the whispers arond say that both Matthews or Malthouse are there preferred options.
They dont want to take on a "'younger coach ""

I kind of wish they would just appoint the freaking coach now and save us all these rumors. But I think we are our own worst enemies for believing just about everthing we see or hear.

Malthouse is really the only fit for mine out of the "older coaches" I really thought we would concentrate on a younger coaching outfit. Maybe a contract with Mathews for 2 years and then agreeing to sign over the reigns to his assistant after that???

Who knows?

It gives me great confidence to hear they are looking for a "senior" coach and not a "young" coach.
Even if it is hear say it is amazing the relief I feel.
To Matthews, Malthouse or Sheedy, welcome ,welcome and welcome. p.s- :help

Sheedy is gone and Malthouse is a very very distant chance, Mathews has said he won't even apply for the job so who knows.

Can anyone confirm this:

I slightly recall Matthews been pushed out of Brisbane for similar reasons to Sheedy being pushed out of Essendon.

"Finished" "Washed Up" "Lost the players" The poor treatment of his players etc.

Why did Matthews leave Brisbane?

From memory I think he said that he would leave the lions when he felt he had lost the players and he didn't think he could take the club any further...... looks like that happened.

Just like it might happen to Collingwood not this year but in the next few about a bloke called Malthouse for a bloke called Buckley.

Eddie can't have Mick without losing Bucks or vice-versa. No matter how hard Eddie tries he can't have his cake and eat it too.

All speculation.

Has nothing to do with what he could do with Richmond. He had been at Lions for ages 3 flags etc..
Has had a break from coaching. Stayed up with the pace of the game in commentry and would be up for a chance to prove something again. Especially to people who say he was washed up etc..
