Rocket to step into Mick's shoes at MagpiesMICHAEL Malthouse has removed himself from the uncomfortably sticky prospect of watching over Nathan Buckley's shoulder next year, but the new Collingwood coach will have a senior coach riding with him.
Former Western Bulldogs and Sydney coach Rodney Eade will be appointed to an overseeing and mentoring role at Collingwood this week.
Eade has been in the running for the St Kilda coaching position, but is expected to take the firm job offer now and withdraw from the Saints' process. The role for Eade will partly incorporate duties that Malthouse would otherwise have performed had he stayed at Collingwood - overseeing high-performance strategies, innovations and development - but, unlike Malthouse, Eade will have a role on match day in the box. There may also be some element of opposition analysis within the role.
