Host of SEN’s Time On Sam McClure is reporting that Brad Scott could soon interview for the vacant Carlton and St Kilda coaching jobs.

Scott left North Melbourne mid-year, with Rhyce Shaw taking over as coach.

While McClure believes Brett Ratten and David Teague are in the box seat to get their respective coaching jobs, the ex-Roos coach could be the “wildcard” that shifts things quickly.

“My understanding is that Brad Scott will tell his high-profile manager Craig Kelly in the next week and a half, by the end of next week I’m told, if – and it is an if – he wants to be a senior coach in 2020 and beyond,” McClure said.

“Now he is considering whether to take a year or potentially more off, but if the answer is yes, then I can tell you tonight that he will be immediately interviewed by both St Kilda and Carlton.

“It is Brett Ratten’s job to lose at Moorabbin and despite the fact that Michael Voss has been interviewed at Carlton, my understanding is that, as it currently stands, David Teague is the preferred option.

“Those situations can both change quickly if Scott tells Craig Kelly that he is interested in being a senior coach in 2020.

“Brad Scott remains the wildcard in the coaching merry-go-round.

“Carlton has already reached out to Brad Scott’s management to ask what his intentions are and of course it’s been well documented the relationship Scott has with Simon Lethlean at St Kilda.”
