A random backpacker passing by asked to take a few snaps.
What is more impressive is that the random backpacker also had multiple sets of Lion's gear conveniently available to share with the families - what a guy!


edit - my wife like to watch those border/customs shows where people have to explain where they are going and why they have x in their luggage ... thinking a die hard bitter Geelong supporter might have fun pretending to be hard to convince that Fages was an AFL coach (too old, too short) and that heading off to meet new draftees and their families was a specious reason for travel (corporate entities make their supplicants come to them not the other way around) and as for why you have soooo many bits of Lions gear (do you have a licence to sell these products sir etc)

Dale Morris - Assistant Coach (Defence)
Cameron Bruce - Assistant Coach (Midfield)
Daniel Lloyd - Assistant Coach (Forwards)
Scott Borlace - Head of Development
Ben Hudson - VFL Coach
Liam Jones - Development Coach
Scott Thompson - Development Coach

OFF-SEASON CHANGES
Stuart Dew has left the Lions after back-to-back premierships, moving to Port Adelaide to work under Josh Carr. Daniel Lloyd was promoted from a development coaching position to replace Dew as the forwards coach, with Brisbane then bringing in Liam Jones and Scott Thompson. The club is expected to finalise its full coaching team in the coming weeks.

I wonder what is meant by "the club is expected to finalise its full coaching team in coming weeks"...another appointment pending perhaps?
 
Pretty big step for Daniel Lloyd, taking over from Stuart Dew. Scotty Thompson was my favourite Adelaide player, so pretty excited to see how he goes!! I have a good feeling about these changes!!

When I first saw the Scott Thompson appointment, I had to double check it wasn't Scotty Thompson, the Norf piss-ant. Was glad it was the Crom player.

No need for a XXXL club polo among the coaching staff next season.

I'm not sure that it such a bad thing to have a smaller coaching panel. Sometimes less voices can work in your favour.

A small group of high quality leaders to go with our fantastic on field leaders is plenty.

I think some clubs fall in the "we have the money let's get as many coaches in as possible" trap and end up with too many cooks in the kitchen.

Probably just the club finalising the coaching lineup and formally announcing it. Any major changes would've been reported on by now.
