As soon as they went, Brad Scott's days were numbered if he couldn't get some wins in.

Do you think it's the right call?

You called him a visitor at North Melbourne, which led to him hip and shouldering you at Marlborough Stadium.

So you've got a history with him as well.

He also didn't have a relationship with Dean Solomon, which was significant in recent months and seen by those inside the club as a really big issue.

Dean Solomon's a big figure in the football club.

Why?

Because he's so close to Andrew Welsh and he's aligned with Andrew Welsh.

He's done what Grant Thomas did.

He's come from the board to be an assistant coach.

Well, Solomon, in some ways, has managed down.

He's gone from the board to being assistant coach.

It was a strange move at the time, wasn't it?

Strange move at the time.

Yeah.

But Brad Scott saw Solomon's arrival as the backline coach as potentially threatening, almost like Solomon was the eyes and ears in that football department keeping an eye on what Brad Scott was doing.

Now, Solomon saw Brad Scott as sidelining him.

Why aren't you giving me a go?

Why won't you let me present to the players?

He presented once or twice this year to the players.
