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

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...

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

could be a blood bath

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasnโ€™t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
