Three-time Brisbane Lions premiership defender Chris Johnson has suggested former Melbourne captain Garry Lyon as a potential senior coach at North Melbourne. 7AFL 7AFL 7NEWS
Four-time Hawthorn premiership coach Alastair Clarkson is the obvious name being linked with a return to his former club, while Ross Lyon and Adam Simpson have both denied interest despite speculation.“He’s been around for a long, long time and analyses the game so well. He’s respected within the football community around his football analogies and everything else.
“They’re checking on people’s emotions, checking on how their people are doing away from the football club, and at the football club. It’s a different role.” “But I’ve been under Garry as a coach and he was a fantastic coach in the Australian team when he coached there, so he’s a perfect person to go and coach North Melbourne.”Before Johnson was a key member of the famous Brisbane Lions team of the early 2000s, his side did some hard yards down near the bottom of the ladder in the late 1990s.
