At the top, Kristy Gleeson has flown across from the Shepparton Swans to take on the A-grade coaching job. After getting a look at the players throughout pre-season, Gleeson was quietly confident about the 2024 season. “We are looking at an A/B squad because, in reality, our B-grade could probably play A-grade,” Gleeson said. “That’s how strong we feel that it is this year. “We have had a massive change in terms of our coaching staff throughout our grades. “They’re all fresh faces, and I think we’re all connecting and communicating, and we’re all excited for one another for our new challenges.” By Hamish Donaldson
