Sheeds tried really hard

I think Sheeds thinks Essendrug is still his Club and that he still rules. Will be interesting to see how this all plays out. A lot of Essendrug still believe Hird should have got the jobย 

Sheeds going public regarding the coaching vote and his disapproval of the outcome makes his position on the board untenable. The chairman should tell him to fall on his sword. If he's honorable he would do it without prompting from the chair

How often has Sheedy fallen on his sword? he is either invincible or has access to the best surgeons in the land.

Oh I know.

Its fantastic.

And with Yze not there I can actively root for their failure.

Hell, with a Scott in there I might get my voodoo dolls out

My former Chair on a Board I was involved with (mulit-billion dollar outfit)would demand Sheedy's resignation.

If not, then he and most other Board members, myself included, would resign over this breach of Board governance.

Big, big test for David Barham.

The phrase 'Sheedy out of his depth here'ย  comes to mind

ย 

How the hell can you run a coaching shortlist process if one guy keeps grandstanding like this? I agree, his postion on the board should be inย jeopardy.

Oh dear Essendon, i also think it's ridiculous that they carried on all the way through the Brad Scott press confrence about a renewed focus on footy, only to hire a guy with a background in major banksย

Ooze should be counting his blessings. Essenscum just can't help themselves. What a ridiculous CEO appointment.

i've always been under the impression that essendrugs had a very strong catholic following

on that basis seems a good fitย ๐Ÿ˜‚

Adem Yze to North next year if Clarkson's career goes down the toilet? Sounds like he's so close to a senior gig he can touch it.

Although I'm not sure if the MFC would be willing to let him go so late in the piece.ย 

ย 

I said to Adem on Friday night that he may have dodged a bullet by not getting the Dons gig. Imagine Sheedy waiting in the wings for you to fail so he can say โ€˜I told you we should have appointed Jamesโ€™.

I sensed that Adem was gutted.

I spoke with my Dons mate yesterday. He dined with Sheedy, Hird and one or two other board members three days after the Hawks review was released. When mention was made in the report of a Hawks assistant coach possibly being involved (or at least privy to the actions of others) Yze was out of the running.

In a way I think that is sad that someone could be hounded out of a job for their beliefs and the church they belong to.

Someone at Ess ad the AFL didn't do enough due diligence on the cultural fit.ย  Just shows some clubs just don't get the importance of being an inclusive club, not just in word but also in deed.

Find it more sad that a church will hound people for the way they were born, but each to their own I guess...

ย 

hope there are no practising catholics or muslims on the board or the executive

could be a blood bath

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterdayโ€™s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown andย  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

    The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
