In today's Herald Sun, Sheedy made a comment along the lines of:

'When you get rejected by Melbourne you know it's over' in reference to not getting our coaching position.

Those grapes must have really dented his ego! Lol Sheeds.

Yeah, saw that. Have always liked Sheedy, even though I hate the bombers with a passion, so this disappointed me.

Poor form kevin. I'm sure it was tongue in cheek, but there's a sour aftertaste.

He actually said:

When Melbourne don't want to talk to you, that's about the end of it.

Maybe Melbourne did me a favour not letting me win a wooden spoon or two.

Fair call, we were a basket case then, and our win loss record hasn't improved.

I would think (or at least hope) that anyone from the MFC discussing Sheedy in regard to coaching Melbourne did so as a joke.

He was in the first round of interviewees. I understand he did not impress as much as others for the role.

As for sour grapes he should line up behind Tony Liberatore!

That's what I thought too. A light-hearted dig at himself more than anything.

Sheedy doesn't like Melbourne. A few years back when the Roos looked to be heading North he penned an article about their "shinboner spirit" In the article he found room to praise Richmond's and the Doggies spirit as well. Then he commented on Melbourne, stating that we had nothing to offer and lacked any spirit. It really [censored] me off. watching him over the last year or so makes me laugh. He's a walking embarrasment. His rants no longer hold any substance and his opinion is rarely sort. as for his alignment with richmond, They can have him, he fits right in!

True, but totally at our expense... Shows a lack of respect for the club... I don't like it...

And correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Sheeds was in the final 5 candidates, along with Riley, Hardwick, Connolly and of course Bailey...

Sheeds was definately interviewed on that last day..I think he was the first candidate on the day...Bailey was the last.

Sorry but this is a "ex-champion" that is losing creditability fast. Lets not forget just 9 weeks ago he was massively hyping- "challenging" the Tigers they "Can WIN the Flag." Look at the outcome ... unneeded pressure that has 110% backfired on the Tigers. (Irrespective of what BS spin they want to make up)

The game has past him by according to the Bombers ... Essendon new it ... Sheedy was just last to work it out.

Yet who does he want to take it out on .... ahhhhhh .... let me guess an easy target. (Poor Poor Form.) However, he has worked out never bite the hand that feeds you.

If he has a bone to pick with the Bombers .... done involve us. :angry: :angry: :angry:

Just goes to prove ... when you live, work, eat and breathe in a glass bowl ... you might just start acting like a "goldfish"

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
