Michael Voss

Many outlets believe the former Lions captain and coach is the 'red hot' favourite as the Kangaroos' next coach, and he might just be the most deserving.

Voss didn't receive an extension at Brisbane come the end of the 2013 season and soon moved to Port Adelaide as their latest midfield coach. Since his move to South Australia, Voss has thrived under Ken Hinkley and now boasts a strong chance for a second chance in charge.

It can be fair to say Voss was rushed into his first position as coach of the Lions in 2009, having taken over the reigns from Leigh Matthews, with a winning percentage of just 39.91% over his five years with the Lions.

It's understood that both Voss and fellow Port assistant Nathan Bassett have been on the radar by the Kangaroos, with the duo both building stocks as future head coaches.

For Voss, he will hope that the ideology of his former coach Matthews that coaches are better the second time around is true, and that an appointment with the Kangaroos isn't far from the horizon.
