Yep, as they say, the grass is ALWAYS greener! We all wanted Sheedy... how do we all feel about him now? Now everyone wants another veteran in Malthouse,,, do you really think he is going to do better than Bailey? Do you really think he could have taken Collingwood to the position they enjoy now with our playing list and budget - how long do you think it will take him to get us to that position? Based on the fact that Malthouse is a seasoned premiership winning coach and Bailey came from virtually nothing, you will all be baying for Malhouse's blood if we aren't in the top 4 by the end of season 2012.
I suppose the treatment meted out on these forums is the price Bailey must pay for putting development ahead of results... never mind the fact that like our playing list, he could be good for a premiership in 2013 as well.
