“The plan for me is to take a bit of a backward step and someone else to come in,” Overs said.
“We’re definitely looking for a coach for next year.
“But I’ll be hanging around and involved in some way or another.”
Overs returned from Leeton-Whitton to coach his home club in 2015. They’ve had one win each year but have been markedly improved this season.
The Two Blues face a difficult final month beginning at home on Saturday against The Rock-Yerong Creek, who destroyed them by more than 200 points in round six.
“They just smashed us off the park, we didn't even get a look in,” Overs said.
“They were phenomenal.”
East Wagga-Kooringal, the Northern Jets and Marrar are their other chances to grab a second win.
“We’re bloody determined to get another one on the board, that’s for sure,” Overs said.
“We’ll keep putting our best foot forward.”
The Two Blues will have ruckman Louie Andrews in against the Pies for his first game of the year.
“He played a bit for us last year. He’s in Sydney and has been trying to get down but he’s been tied up for work,” Overs said.
The Rock-Yerong Creek aren’t carried away with their big win earlier in the year with co-coach Andy Carey noting at the time that some poor habits had crept in.
“We’ve addressed all that – we just want to try and implement the tactics we want to use come finals,” Carey said.
“We’re not worried (about the scoreboard), we’re just trying to play how we need to play coming into finals.”
