Reported on SEN that Sheeds has being sacked by the Essendon board.

Look out Terry.

Do we want him? I wouldn't mind old Sheeds.

did they have a source? and is he gone now or end of season?

if he is gone, someone should be round there this arvo with a contract for him to sign...

i think we really need to get a kick on now. i cant see him going to freo, but melb and carlton are both looking for coaches as well. for some reason i dont see him at carlton, whereas i could see him becoming the new face of melbourne...i really hope we chase him if he is interested...

you're all class Essendon !!

Before ppl say...but hey...what about us ...ffs the guy had been there 27 years... given them 3 cups !!!!!!! and they cant let him out at end of season ?? A mongrel act, thought Bomberland above that !!

Panic is sweeping the AFL !!!

Interested to hear Ash's thoughts on this.

I'd love him at Melbourne.

Puts the methods of the MFC in new light.. yes Danners was probably shown teh writing on the wall, but he left, wasnt sacked. MFC allowed Danners to coach his team one last game !! These guys are uncerremoniously culled.

yep Id have Sheeds.

Ash might be in shock for a little while !!! :(

I think he actually took them to four cups......

Astonishing really that this could happen especially since they are still technically in the finals hunt :o !!!

After getting the arse before the end of the year he will be looking for a way to stick it up the EFC board!!

For the last month we've been hearing about how he will see out the year and they will make a decision then about whether to re-new his contract.... EFC board have treated him with a total lack of respect and have kicked him in the guts!

And you wonder why The Bummers and The Filth are so dear to our hearts?!?!

I think we would be stupid not to at least talk to Sheeds and see what his thoughts are on our list and what he could bring to the club.... The man has been the best thing that happened to The Bummers since WWII and their loss could well be our gain!

I'm not convinced that he IS the man for the job, but with a fresh start and a decent midfield to work with, the bloke could be quietly excited!!

youre right Queen... I just banish from memory that day in 2000 !! :-)

Am very surprised he simply wasnt recontracted.. Guy deserved better.

I still don't know all the facts. Press conference at 12.00pm.

Look, I didn’t think that he would be coach next season, but why not let him coach out the season, and let him do it with dignity. I think he deserves to go out the way that he wants.

If they announce that the club and Sheedy came to an agreement that he will coach the season out, I will accept that, but if the decision is effective immediately, I won't be happy.

This is unprecedented in the modern era, someone coaching for 27 years. Everyone here saw the reception Neale Daniher got in his last game, Sheedy more than deserves a similar farewell. I hope he gets it.

Posted

Unbelievable! It was only 2 nights ago that the Essendon Chairman came out of a board meeting and said that the coaching position hadn't even been discussed. He also explicity stated that Sheedy would coach out the year. Unbelievably disrespectful to Sheedy!

While I doubt he will coach another team, we must at least speak to him and find out if he would be interested. It isn't everyday a 4 time premiership coach is on the market.

Posted

If Sheedy announced that he wished to continue coaching, i would keep a close eye on the Tigers over the coming weeks!!

As said earlier, Melbourne needs to get their arse into gear, in order to capitalise on the situation. Sending a contract over to him this arvo is a bit early. Give him time to see where he's at. Send the contract over to him tomorrow morning, with Gardner delivering it to his front door!!!

If the MFC could sign up Sheedy, watch the membership level hit record heights next year, despite this year from hell.

wallace still has 2 or 3 years left in his deal, they wont get rid of him despite form

pagan still had a year.. lol, couldbe wrong but thought Conolly still had a year too

all bets are off today !!

Completely agree with that. Stinks of knee-jerk reaction to me. I'd be filthy if I were an Essendon supporter.

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
