Matthew Lappin
Lappin played in Chiltern's losing 1992 and 1993 O&KFL senior football grand final sides,[1] alongside his cousin, Nigel Lappin, prior to being picked up at number 40 by St. Kilda in the 1993 AFL Draft.[citation needed] Lappin played in 17 of 22 matches in the 1997 season home and away rounds in which St Kilda qualified in first position for the 1997 Finals Series, winning the club's 2nd minor premiership and 1st McClelland Trophy.[2] At the end of the 1998 season, Lappin moved to Carlton, where in the first quarter of the club's round 1 match against Essendon he took a specky on the goal-line which would go on to win the Mark of the Year for 1999.[3] Throughout his playing career, Lappin was recognised on the field due to his lightly built frame, for which he attracted the nickname "Skinny".[6] He then served as an AFL coach for the JLC at Hillcrest Christian College Queensland.
