Two former AFL coaches have joined Collingwood’s off-field ranks.

Justin Leppitsch and Brendon Bolton have been unveiled by the Pies.

Leppitsch, who used to coach Brisbane, has taken on Collingwood’s Head of Strategy role and will also assist with coaching Collingwood’s backline.

Former Carlton coach Bolton has accepted the role of Director of Coaching.

The Pies said he’ll also work specifically with Collingwood’s midfield.

Both will support new coach Craig McRae.
