Danny Daly rules himself out of Brisbane job

Brisbane’s GM of football, Danny Daly, has ruled himself out of the race to replace Chris Fagan as senor coach at the Lions.

After Fagan stepped away from the club following his third straight premiership, the Lions were said to be looking internally for the club’s next head coach, with Daly and assistant Cam Bruce leading the race to step into the role.

However, as reported by the Herald Sun’s Jay Clark, Daly has rescinded his interest in the job.

It is now said that Bruce leads the race, with Daly expected to instead be considered as a member of the coaching selection panel.

Reports have also suggested that Geelong assistant coach Nathan Buckley is also in the mix for the job.
