What do the AFL’s 18 coaches think about the competition, its rules and its regulations? Who do they think will win this year’s Brownlow Medal? The answers to these questions - and more - can be found in the AFL Record’s first AFL coaches’ survey.

Rising young Hawthorn stars Matt Suckling, Luke Breust and Isaac Smith share a common bond. They all hail from the Riverina in country New South Wales. The Record’s Mark Macgugan catches up with the trio and traces their junior careers back home.

Former Port Adelaide captain Warren Tredrea and ex-Adelaide defender Nathan Bassett tell the Record’s Nick Bowen why the Showdown is so special.

Adam McNicol tracks down former Demon Guy Rigoni and the Record celebrates the 250-game milestones of St Kilda’s Stephen Milne and Greater Western Sydney’s Chad Cornes.

The 2012 round fifteen AFL Record will be on sale for $5 at all games. You can also purchase a copy from AFL Reception or call (03) 9643 1999.

And don't forget the AFL Record is now available on your iPad.
