Predicated on who they want it to be.

And obviously, Nathan Buckley, only last week, went very public with his desire to be that person.

Now, he's interesting because he's gettable effectively right now.

Geelong would give him permission to leave Geelong today if Brendan Gale went down that path and said, you're our first coach.

Well, he could do that too, but obviously you prolong it further.

You're then not inside those players' heads who they're after.

But I've got no doubt Brendan Gale is still talking, sorry, is still contemplating coaches who are in the system.

Who?

Give me some names.

Well, the coach of your club is, I would imagine, Bill, number one on the list.

I've got little doubt Chris Scott would be the number one person.

I reckon that if Chris was to say to Brendan Gale, you get me $5 million a year, the AFL would find a way for that to be the outcome.

You're right about raising...

You're right about raising the exemptions they've got to get.

They've already got so many exemptions when it comes to the list compiling.

But there has to be an off-field exemption as well, doesn't there?

I would imagine there would be.

I haven't got the cross anyway, right now, anyway, what that looks like.

Well, again, those guys are gettable.

They've got media deals, obviously, particularly when it comes to Simpson.
