Justin Leppitsch believes he still has the support of Brisbane Lions football director Leigh Matthews but admits he doesnt know if hell be coach of the AFL club next year.Leppitschs future is again in the spotlight after a report this week from Fairfax Media, which claimed he would be sacked at the end of the season - despite being contracted to the end of 2017 - and that Matthews would also step down from his role on the clubs board.Matthews appeared to soften his backing of Leppitsch when speaking to Adelaide radio station 5AA on Wednesday night, imitating Hogans Heroes character Sargent Schultz when asked if he would stay on as coach by saying: I know nothing.Leppitsch said he had only heard snippets of the interview but rated the strength of his relationship with Matthews as a nine out of 10.Its hard to know. All I know is when I speak to the man, Leppitsch told reporters on Thursday.Weve always been strong. We can have straight conversations, Leigh and I. Some people cant. Thats what I love about him. Were always talking.What the public perceive him and his actions to be, I dont know.The only thing I can tell you is the conversations weve had and hes been very supportive and up front.Lions chairman Bob Sharpless confirmed earlier this month that Leppitschs job would come under review at years end.The same Fairfax report also claimed Leppitsch was coming to the realisation he would not stay on as coach but was evasive when asked if that was the case.I know nothing. Thats really it, he said.If theres stuff going on in the background, maybe you guys know more than me.Im just really here to coach the team, coach this week and get another win. Im contracted next year, thats all Im going to do.If theres other things that are happening... what will be will be.Leppitsch also said he wasnt surprised by Matthews declaration that he would put the health of the club before any individual when making major footballing decisions.I remember he wouldnt even give me a retirement game. Leighs always been about the team and whats best in that particular week, and I know that and thats what I love about Leigh - his honest nature, he said.Hes up front in an industry where theres not a lot of people like that.

Chris Fagan will need to hit the ground running when he is officially announced as Brisbanes new AFL coach.The former Hawthorn football chief is expected to be unveiled as Justin Leppitschs successor at a media conference on Tuesday.With AFL free agency and trade periods looming, Fagan will need to make some big calls quickly, not least of which will be whether skipper Tom Rockliff and an out-of-sorts Pearce Hanley fit into his plans to rejuvenate the struggling club.Fagan is set to become the sixth current AFL coach to have worked with four-time Hawks premiership coach Alastair Clarkson.He will join Western Bulldogs premiership coach Luke Beveridge, Richmonds Damien Hardwick, Greater Western Sydneys Leon Cameron, West Coasts Adam Simpson and Carltons Brendon Bolton as active AFL coaches to have worked with Clarkson.Fagan, 55, has been the frontrunner to replace Leppitsch since he was sacked following the clubs disastrous three-win season.Blues assistant John Barker is also believed to have come under strong consideration.Fagan has been with the Hawks since 2008, where he experienced premiership success on four occasions and worked alongside Mark Evans, who will have had some input into thhe Lions decision as the AFLs football operations manager.ddddddddddddAFL chief executive Gillon McLachlan said in August this year that the league, which has already invested heavily in the cash-strapped Lions, would work with the struggling club to get the right people in key positions.The AFL was instrumental in luring respected football operations manager David Noble from Adelaide to oversee Brisbanes overhauled football department.Fagan will take on a senior coaching role in the AFL for the first time and although he never played at the elite level, he is a well-respected figure in the industry who brings a wealth of experience and knowledge.He was an assistant coach to Neale Daniher at Melbourne, where he also took on the role of football operations manager and has a strong coaching and playing background in his native Tasmania.The five-person selection panel that oversaw the search for a new coach was led by Lions chief executive Greg Swann and included club great Simon Black, list manager Peter Schwab, psychology firm executive Matti Clements and Noble.
