When Greg Nichols arrived at Glenelg in 1984, he had just come off a season as captain-coach of Myrtleford and had a couple of seasons coaching Wagga’s Turvey Park before that. He had won the ACTFL Mulrooney Medal at Ainslie in 1982. Those stints followed his solitary Geelong appearance in 1979.

Nicholls only stayed the one season in black and gold, kicking 62 goals in his 17 outings.

A journeyman’s journeyman, Nichols lobbed back at Turvey Park (playing in five of their flags in total) to cement his standing as the dominant CHF in the Riverina.
