Development coach Steve Grace has been promoted to Forward coach. Congrats to the man, here's hoping he can get our forward line looking dangerous again.

And a million Pies fans just stopped, scratched their heads and asked out loud "who?" Confused Surprised Very Happy

In any event, congratulations to him. Hopefully he can make a better fist of the job than his predecessor...

It should be noted, Grace was Patty Karnezis' coach when he was playing forward during his draft year at the Oakleigh Chargers. Will 2015 be the year PK breaks out and becomes our Jack Gunston?

I'm a bit concerned at his 2 decades as a private school teacher.

I'd have preferred someone with a bit more mongrel about him. Still, let's give him the benefit of the doubt and wish him all the best.

Unbelievable. When will this club EVER tell the truth?

We were told that Lappin went because of the new tax on footy department spending. Wrong. By hiring another forward coach it is obvious the club SACKED Lappin. Well then just tell the bloody truth! Evil or Very Mad

No doubt when Buckley goes it will be because he wants to spend more time with his family. Rolling Eyes

Well if he doesn't get a pay rise then he is a fool!

Mind you a backline coach for our VFL side is nothing to write home about.

I was hoping the sheer unadulterated ignorance of that previous post would shame the author into silence.....no such luck.

No. I have absolutely no confidence in the club anymore. None. Zilch, Zero. I am not alone as all the empty seats at our games prove.

And why don't you guys see that Lappin was sacked for poor performance despite the club spin.

Hopefully he gets a say and can bring some system to what purports to be our forward line. I wish him all the best.
