Kevin Sheedy complaining about clubs trying to poach GWS players in the Sun today. MFC says hello.

 

As always, loves to promote his ideas and favourites, and always operates from self interest.  Has done some good things, but gws are either a real team now, or not.  Can’t rub it both ways.

Everyone operates from some level of self interest.

I would say he has also had the game at heart...on the whole he has been & is good for the game.

So they steal Scully, Ward, Davis etc then complain when it comes back to other clubs looking at GWS Talent. 
Sheedy = A grade tool 

And GWS gets a recruiting zone.  So it’s already imbalance towards them

I bet Sheedy hasn't complained about GWS poaching all of the swans academy & NEAFL players......

I haven't seen Sheedy's article, so I won't comment on what he said, but wasn't GWS established deliberately with a larger number of players which required them to "lose" some over time via trading, retirements and free agency?  If so, the model effectively invited clubs to pursue GWS's excess players.

On the whole,  Sheed's  has been  'brilliant'  for the game...  equally with LMatthews. 

I'd say that Barass,  Sheeds and Mathews,  are all equal with Teddy Whitten,  as the best promoters of our game.


Sheedy no time for him at all. Pictured in Rob Flowers book as coach of Sun all stars and Rob F in same jumper ALLSTARS photo but in Sheedy's latest book Rob not rated in top 25-30 players.Disgraceful disrespect!

His opinions are WORTHLESS!!

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
