    Be interesting to see who picks him up (I'm sure someone will). Can he put Melbourne back together, or is Adelaide a safer bet?

    I would have thought Melbourne would be a good fit. They have the talent on the list, they just need a coach with experience who can get them to implement a game plan in a more consistent and disciplined fashion.

    Player-wise, definitely. I wonder about the issues with the board and management. It sounds like the players wanted Bailey to stay and managers to go - but then the opposite happened.

    Or does he go to Port to hold Primus' hand?

    I'd assumed that no-one would touch Port with a barge pole but yeah, another option I guess

    Is Primus safe? [Mod edit.]

    Has a very woeful coaching strike rate so far.

    You have to feel for Eade. Likeable bloke and a good coach but too often the bridesmaid. Perhaps unlucky that the Dogs peaked in the Geelong-Collingwood era.

    Yes, Demons is the obvious fit. It'd be good for the league if he went to Port Adelaide, but I can't imagine any credentialled coach applying for the position.

    Fun fact: If Eade the ex-Swans coach had quit Paul Williams the Swans premiership player would have been senior coach for the last three games.

    And so it has come to pass!

    Trivia - anyone know the most coaches to be sacked in a season? Over at Big Footy they point to 3 in 2001 (Judge, Drum and Blight).

    Here's another: Eade has been sacked by two clubs, both in his 7th year as Coach.
