Thanks for your time and efforts over the years.

I’ve read enough of Demonland to be CERTAIN that this development means our dynasty window has re-opened.

We are about to win 10 straight.... get ready to party.

Thanks for the service fella

Curious how the forward line will go under a new line-coach, guess we'll find out one way or another where the issue is located

Who do we blame if our forward line sucks next year??!!

He came to the club at (one of) its lowest points and helped deliver a Premiership. 

Thanks Staff!

Happy trails Greg. While it may be time for change your contributions won't be forgotten.

Your words of encouragement from the sidelines as Max lined up that kick in Geelong with nuffies all around him might have more to do with that flag than we care to admit. 

Thanks, Finally some good news with everything that has been going on

Expect media to blame the culture.

But on a serious note Staff seems like a really top bloke.

Thanks for your service big man.

Will be interesting to see if this change freshens up the forward line in 2025!

From every one of the many mentions players give him, they're going to miss him.

A Premiership is no mean feat.     So yes thanks indeed  but  something needed to change,  no blame attributed anywhere, But something had to change and probably more than 1 needs to fall on their sword.  A fresh wind Typhoon even

Wish him well. Believe that will be at Richmond FC 

Thanks and best wishes. Part of our 2021 success.  Time was certainly up. 
 

Is this part true -  in his bio … “Greg played in the 2007 Asian Australian Football Championships for the China Reds”.

Loving that the word nuffies is being used here to describe opposition players or in general anyone who isn't Melbourne.

Best of luck Staff. Successful or not I am sure he tried his hardest. 11 years in one place in AFL football is an eternity

Has premiership assistant coach on his resume. Came to us when we were a basket case. Best wishes.

Any idea who we may poach for the forward coaching role?

No doubt there will be some spicy comments on this thread. 
 

Thanks for 11 years of service Greg.

That’s because he is. The boys all adore him and it’s no surprise they do because he’s a lovely guy.

I’m not gonna comment on his prowess as a forwards coach, but I will on him as a person.

Staffy will be sorely missed by all at the club, and he’ll be hard to replace since he was more than just a coach. He was a mate to the boys. He’s always encouraging them and he praises them which goes a long way, especially with the kids.

He’s a happy and friendly guy, always has time for a little chat, and personally I’ll miss seeing him around. Especially out on banner when the coaches come onto the field since he always said hello with a beaming smile which is very welcome before a match.

I understand it’s what’s best for the Club but geez he’ll be missed.

And who will take over as ruck coach?
