From The Herald-Sun today.
Bloody hell, he's already been sacked from Essendon, Collingwood and now St.Kilda. What can he possibly offer us ??? I'm not very confident with the coaching setup at the moment, esp if Elshaug and Libba being kept on.
Daniher to join Blues

TERRY Daniher is headed to his fourth club on his rocky ride through AFL coaching boxes.
The Essendon champion is expected to be one of two additions to Carlton's coaching panel for 2006.
Daniher, an assistant at St Kilda this year, and Footscray's Brownlow Medal ruckman Gary Dempsey will join the Blues in part-time roles.
Carlton chief executive Michael Malouf said last night discussions with the pair had progressed "pretty well", but could not confirm appointments at this stage.
Daniher spent the past two seasons with the Saints after a similar period at Collingwood. He previously was an assistant at Essendon.
Dempsey has worked as ruck coach at both the Bulldogs and Hawthorn.
While Collingwood and St Kilda both moved Daniher on, he seems a better fit at Carlton under Denis Pagan.
The Blues also went looking specifically for a former key-position player to help develop their various prospective key forwards and defenders.
"We're looking for a key-position player from a successful club who's interested in developing our young players," Malouf said.
Daniher played in attack and defence during his distinguished career at Essendon.
Despite Collingwood's decision to remove him after the 2003 Grand Final, he is credited in some circles with helping develop Chris Tarrant that year, when he finished second in the best-and-fairest.
"We've got a very, very young list; we've got a lot of young key position players we need to develop," Malouf said.
"In our review, we identified we had the least number of coaches in the AFL, and that we also needed to change the mix."
Pagan's assistants this year were Tony Elshaug, Tony Liberatore and Barry Mitchell, all midfielders when they played, with occasional contributions from Wayne Carey, who has crossed to Collingwood.
Mitchell, a former Swans rover, was coach of the forwards.
An announcement is expected as early as today
