O'Keefe, Teague join Crows coaching panel

Dual premiership captain Mark Bickley has left the coaching panel of the Adelaide Crows, who have added two new faces to their AFL coaching box.

Former Sydney midfielder Ryan O'Keefe and ex-St Kilda assistant David Teague have joined the Crows in a revamped panel under new head coach Phil Walsh.

But Bickley, a long-time assistant coach and the captain of Adelaide's 1997-98 premierships, has departed to pursue other opportunities, the Crows said in a statement on Thursday.

O'Keefe, a double premiership winner at Sydney, will be a midfield development coach.

And Teague, an assistant at the Saints last season who previously worked with Walsh at West Coast, will be the Crows' forward line coach.

The Crows said Scott Camporeale (midfield), Darren Milburn (defence) and Matthew Clarke (ruck) would remain as assistant coaches.
