The nickname Bez is very popular this week…

I noticed Nicks using a nickname today for #26, which I have added to post #1. Cheers

Maynard's absence would have changed the result of the grand final. That's how big this travesty and shameful scenario really is. Next season it could be Nick Daicos (nothing against the lad personally, this all about karma), getting ironed out in the first quarter of the prelim final with a...

Ah, I see. Wouldn't it be nice if the AFC coaches page showed anything like that article says! https://www.afc.com.au/Teams/AFL/coaches

OK thanks. Was he not already employed at 100% doing the defenders, and had spare capacity to pick up all of what Rahilly was able to do as forwards coach?

I have only just caught up on James Rahilly's departure. Have I also missed news on his replacement?
