Kris Massie

Kris Massie (born 30 May 1980 in Sweden) is an Australian rules football coach and former player who played for Carlton and Adelaide in the Australian Football League. He is currently the senior coach of the Glenelg Football Club in the South Australian National Football League.

Massie was recruited to the Carlton Football Club in the 1997 AFL Draft and won a Rising Star nomination in his first AFL season (1998) after debuting less than two weeks before his 18th birthday. As a utility player, Massie failed to live up to his top 10 draft pick status, however, and only managed 43 games in 4 seasons at Carlton before being traded.

At Adelaide, Massie held his spot in the side late in the 2002 season, and in 2003 again performed well enough to hold his spot for the finals series. 2004 saw him play the first 11 games, but he only managed one more match for the year, in Round 17.

In 2005, Massie had turned 25 and was now an experienced member of the team. Kept in as a depth player, Massie played much of his football with Norwood in the SANFL, and only managed 3 games for the year, including the Qualifying Final. He returned to regular senior selection in 2006, playing 20 games. He missed the first half of 2007 with injury before coming back for Round 12.

Massie was delisted by Adelaide at the end of the 2008 season, and signed to play as a contracted player for Norwood in the SANFL in 2009.

In 2010, Massie moved into coaching, taking the role as the under-18s coach at Glenelg, taking the young Bays to the premiership, then becoming Glenelg's reserves coach in 2011. On 20 June 2011, Glenelg head coach Mark Mickan was sacked by the club following poor onfield performances, and Massie was installed as caretaker season coach for the remainder of the 2011 season, and was appointed as senior coach for the 2012 season.
