He coached three of the four most recent Stawell Gift winners, is a former board member of the Victorian Athletic League — the organisation that runs the famous event — and has attended every edition since 1992. Fiedler also worked as the speed and agility coach of the Melbourne Storm for 15 years, training searingly quick NRL stars such as Billy Slater.

    Star St Kilda forward Max King is set to undergo surgery on his right knee for the second time in less than two months as uncertainty remains over when he will be fit to return. The Saints' two-time leading goal-kicker suffered a knee injury at training on February 7, underwent surgery in late February, and is now set for another operation on Thursday.
