Echo sentiments, he is a welcome addition.

Re: Varcoe appointed as a development coach
That run in the 2011 GF..........one of the best GF moments I've seen live.
For some reason he just always seemed like a bit of an outsider, never central to the major plans on the day. However he always seemed to have an impact and was never vanilla in what he delivered. We've been way too vanilla in the way we do things recently, hopefully he can help shake us out of that and at the same time make role players just a bit better than what they think they can be.
2018 Opener - please teach this
Also, if you can teach the opener from the 2011 GF that would be a huge bonus. Cheers, freak.

Re: Varcoe appointed as a development coach
Smart move.
Always liked him as a player. Glad he is at our club now. Hoping with his appointment and the recruitment of JUH we become a destination club for indigenous players.

Coming from Collingwood, I assume they're paying part of his salary too

If it's from Barker's cafe it will be pretty expensive.

Noble did play AFL though, even if it was only 2 games.

Re: Varcoe appointed as a development coach
Also looks like Maddocks was one of Bevo's players for the 3peat in the VAFA.
