and Brendon Bolton to key roles, the Magpies have made no secret of the fact they are keen to return its coaching staff to pre-Covid levels.

Leppitsch has become Collingwood’s head of strategy, with the added responsibility for the defence, while Bolton will be director of coaching.

Geelong assistant coach Corey Enright has attracted the attention of a handful of Melbourne-based clubs, with the Magpies being one of them.

Former Brisbane midfield coach Dale Tapping has also had interest from a few AFL clubs after making the decision to return to Victoria with his family.

Luke Hodge is not long out of the game ...

 

[tranquilli lace]

Luke Hodge is not long out of the game ...

And Shane Mumford the other one I've heard whispered.

 

[Jen2310]

Luke Hodge is not long out of the game ...

Probably referring to Enright. Retired in 2016

 

[jonbe54]

And Shane Mumford the other one I've heard whispered.

Yeah he would be so valuable to teach our players to be thugs.

[Dead Eye Didak]

God Leppa speaks well. Great appointment

He has been fantastic to listen to during the season. His tactical insight, and understanding of the "modern" game is so impressive. Wrapt he will be working with our backline next season, and developing our young list...

 

[MagpieJoel]

Ill take Clarkos opinion on him over nuffie supporters i think

And the fact they think Mitchell will be better than Clarkson.

 

[NMBB]

Buy some long pants Leppa

at least he's not ashamed to show his CALVES!!

 

[Roverjg]

Im hoping he does great things but its still a bit concerning. But this was the club that choose an untried over their greatest coach. Still shocks me thinking about that.

It was reported today that Bolton and Mitchell are not "close"

The sausage budget would increase dramatically, if so.

[jimmy35]

Not sure we need anyone else with white line fever.

edit: I see the spider and co have have beaten me to the pun

Someone just out of game.... Nathan Jones. If he wanted to stay in the game he could become a good pickup

 

[gouki88]

I wonder, does he have any inclination towards coaching? Feel like he'd essentially be in the same position as Selwood here

 

[Obese Arachnid]

Not sure he'd want to come to the Pies after some of our "supporters" bashed the s**t out of his old man.
