    Nice one Chappy! No idea how they assess input of assistant coaches for an award like this but he's obviously done something right.

    Wasn't a fan of his in the early days but clearly he's developed into an excellent line coach.

    Will probably be in the frame for a senior coach in the coming years.

    It's voted on by all the AFL coaches (head coach & assistants).

    I think they might be a little more diligent than when the players vote their awards.

    2nd year in a row least scored against.

    Also our defensive structure and full ground ‘web’ has been 4 years in the making according to Gawn (interview last year) and driven by Chaplin.

    Worthy winner. I wonder if we should shuffle people around.

    I don’t believe that just because he is a former defender that he can’t take over the forward line. The new coach of GWS, a former back pocket, coached Riewoldt at St K and Nick is adamant he was the best forwards coach he ever had.

    Well at least it isn’t the umpires - “can’t find the possession numbers - what do we do now”?
