Fremantle finalizes coaching changes, Mzungu promoted and Broad joins staff

Fremantle is finalizing coaching appointments, promoting Tendai Mzungu to a line coaching role for the 2027 season. The Dockers are also nearing an agreement with Nathan Broad, a three-time premiership player with Richmond, to serve as a development coach. These changes follow the departures of key assistants Jaymie Graham and Todd Curley, with Graham moving to North Melbourne and Curley taking the role of senior coach at West Perth. Mzungu, a former Docker who has worked as a development coach since 2021, may take over the forward line role, although future assignments within the coaching staff remain uncertain. Broad's hiring comes as he returns to Western Australia for family reasons after a 191-game playing career.
