GOLD Coast could unveil Rodney Eade as senior coach as early as Tuesday after the Suns identified him to lead them into premiership contention.

Eade did not formally apply for the role but Gold Coast headhunted the former Western Bulldogs and Sydney coach.

The panel formed to select Guy McKenna

Beat me to it mate. Reckon he'd be a good fit for GC.

Not a fan of this move. How many flags has he won in how many years coaching?

Would say it is highly likely that this may be the case but article doing best to deny it is formality,

"However it is understood he is yet to formally commit to the Suns' top job.
A Suns spokesman told AFL.com.au on Monday night the club was yet to make its appointment."

They said they were pretty committed to getting somebody in with head coaching experience, but I'm surprised they didn't go down the path you've suggested.
