Was one of the 3 assistant coaches that left Carlton this week. Would we be interested in him? Can we gain anything? Would be awesome to have him back, was always a big fan of his. Also, it seems he was 'asked' to leave as opposed to him walking out.



"At Carlton, Montgomery and Lappin were back line and forward coaches respectively. In a statement last night, Carlton said: ''Following discussions at the end of the season, Brett Montgomery and Matthew Lappin understood the club's position in wishing to make changes to the coaching panel and a mutual decision was made not to extend their contracts for 2011.''"

We are ready getting one coach from Carlton so we can get use of any of their ideas. Better to get a coach from another club to pick their good ideas not that many clubs would be doing much differently these days.

I say we get whoever is best for the job, wherever they're from. Period.

yep. getting ex-players back gives us all a warm fuzzy feeling, but ross lyon's not an ex-saints player and i've learned to love him. same will happen with any assistant who does their job well.

Agree. Would be good to have a crack at Alan Richardson if he became available by missing out on the Essendon job.

IMO - I wouldn't touch Lappin.
