Richmond and also the AFL tried to get him. Had heard he was the AFL number 1 for Swann’s now role before he knocked them back.
Bloody good operator and a great get by the Blues.

"We would like to thank Chris for his years of dedicated service to the club and wish him all the best."

Typically low class.

I’m excited by Chris Davies. His CV is excellent. It’s the level of stability we could really use to acquire some excellent assistant coaches even if Voss is only contracted for 1 more year.

4 or 5 prelim finals whilst he was head of football? I know Port fans are impatient and thought their list was rolled gold for a premiership, but I'd take a bit of that.

Butters. Rozee. JHF. Rioli. Dixon. Georgiades. Bergman…?
Not sure on his impact on these but he’s been attempted to be poached on numerous occasions, which sells some degree of competency.
