Manage episode 301880050 series 2971812
Dean Solomon played 158 games for the Essendon Football Club from 1998-2006, and was an integral part of the incredible Bombers 2000 premiership team, who produced the best season for any team in VFL/AFL history. Known for his uncompromising attack on the footy, Solly played a further 51 games for the Fremantle Dockers from 2007-2009 before retiring due to a degenerative knee injury.
Solly assumed a development coaching role with Fremantle in 2010, before moving to the newly formed Gold Coast Suns as an assistant coach in 2011. Solly would spend a decade at the Suns, and also took on the caretaker coach role for the last three games of 2017 after Rodney Eade’s departure.
