Former St Kilda player Xavier Clarke (pictured) is believed to be in the sights of a number of clubs for a coaching position next year.
Clarke has been at the helm of the Northern Territory Thunder for the last three years and his success with the club has reportedly attracted the interest of Richmond, Collingwood and Fremantle.
Three time AFL premiership winner Chris Johnson says he believes 33 year old Clarke would be an asset to any club he chose to join.
