Gill signs with Dees

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 13 Desember 2012 | 14.56

NORTH Hobart's star recruit Nick Gill can't wait to get back on the ground where he starred for Sandringham and Port Melbourne in VFL games against the Tassie Devils in the early 2000s.

The former Melbourne, North Melbourne and Adelaide Crows utility has signed a one-year contract as playing assistant coach for the Demons next season.

The 2013 TSL roster was released yesterday, and Gill's debut for the Dees in round 1 will be against Hobart at the TCA ground on April 14.

North recruited Gill, 30, as a key forward, but the man who played 16 games and kicked 20 goals for the Crows between 2007 and 2009 says he will bring more than onfield talent.

"It's an exciting challenge at my age to pass on a bit of experience to a pretty young team," Gill said yesterday.

"That adds to the challenge for me.

"North Hobart finished sixth on the ladder this year and I feel that I can pass on a bit of experience rather than just contributing on field."

The 2013 TSL roster covers 26 weeks and boasts three Anzac Day games, seven Friday night games, two matches on Good Friday and 13 Sunday games.

Gill's first match at North Hobart will be against reigning premier Burnie on April 27.

He played in Cairns this year where he kicked a career-high 106 goals.

That caught North Hobart's attention, as well as the eye of numerous other clubs.

"It was a tough decision and it was good to speak to all the clubs," he said.

"In the end I'm happy with my decision.

"It came down to a couple of clubs but I won't say who."

Anzac Day action involves Glenorchy hosting Lauderdale at KGV at 12.30pm, and Devonport-Launceston (Devonport Oval) and North Launceston-South Launceston (Aurora Stadium) clashing in night games, both starting at 6pm, thus avoiding the AFL blockbuster between Collingwood and Essendon.
