The other two are Rodney Eade and Terry Wallace.

Grant Thomas mentioned a couple of weeks ago that they're likely to eventually move to New Zealand, but Tassie seems a better option to me.

Would be tough though FC- Hawthorn own that market now.
There was a really good article on St. Kildas coaching failures since Stan Alves got the sack at the end of 1998. It wasn't centred around the dud coaches they have appointed, rather the styles in which they left as a result of lack of success. Alves got the boot 1 season after taking the saints to a GF, Tim Watson and Blight werent even given a season (despite Blight being paid huge bucks to deliver results for a club, where he wasnt 100% committed to the job anyway), Thomas walked after a few preliminary finals, Lyon walked having seen the writing on the wall given the changes his squad was about to face, and now Watters has been shown the door a season after being given the job.
To me that says that unless you deliver results IMMEDIATELY- then walk or we will sack you.
The best place that St. Kilda could start to clean up is their board and administration. We have all witnessed what Port was capable of with an administrative clean out and there is nothing to suggest the saints couldnt do the same with the right people at the very top of the club.

Who would you pick over Choco or Richardson? Choco for me
