From Melbourne to Essendon to Carlton in recent years. What a CV.

Can't go any lower can he?

Re: Assistant Coaches for 2016

Given the clubs investment in Tom Boyd, do we have someone working with him? Is it worth having a specialist role specifically working with our tall forwards? Boyd in particular?

Good point, if anything we're missing the Cameron Mooney/Matthew Scarlett specialist part-timers. Matthew Lloyd has been working with Joe Daniher at Essendon and he is a lot more confident with his kicking for goal

Tend to agree on a forward line mentor for Boyd and other young KPFs . Leading patterns and aggression to be the objectives.

Chris Grant should be taking Boyd under his wing.

I think Chef has made a good suggestion, a session or two per week with Chris over the summer could be a good thing for Boyd.
I like our assistant coaches though and think Joel Corey along with Gia will teach him so much.

Marcus Bontempelli has often commented on how great Joel Corey has been for him, in passing on knowledge about training and game day situations.

It appears Joel Corey's coaching career will be as low key as his playing career, yet hopefully for us, no less effective.

Yep. Our forward line seemed to be running pretty smoothly this season so he's in good hands.

He's got some good stock to work with.

Former Geelong midfielder Joel Corey signs on with EDFL club Maribyrnong Park for 2016

In the article it states:

Corey will continue in his role as a stoppages coach at the Western Bulldogs this year but is expected to be available for as many as a dozen EDFL Premier Division matches.
