Former North Melbourne coach Rhyce Shaw will return to AFL coaching ranks in 2021, joining Gold Coast as head of development.
Shaw left the Kangaroos by mutual agreement in October to deal with personal issues after a turbulent season for the club.
He had two seasons left to run on a three-year contract.
The 39-year-old remains a respected figure in the football industry and will now reunite with Gold Coast coach Stuart Dew.
The pair formed a strong bond in eight years together at Sydney, where Shaw finished his playing career and moved into a coaching position while Dew was an assistant under John Longmire.
