Great pickup for them if true, as long as he doesn't expect success within 2-3 years. Footy is coming more back towards the Matthews way too IMHO, the Hawks/St Kilda zone was a departure from Matthews aggressive, contested footy but its come back around to the way his Lions used to play.

Has any coach won premierships @ three clubs?

Has any footballer/coach won premierships @ four clubs?

And the your point is?

Actually does this make Leigh a liar? Seeing he was asked last week if was interested and he said he WOULDN'T be coaching Essendon or anyone else in 2011

Has the thought crossed your mind that perhaps he was there to give them some advice on what to look for when choosing their next coach

Personally I don't care one way oar another what the Bumblings do - they created the mess they find themselves in ...they deserve all the grief that goes with it

Jack, your track record on who's going to coach where ain't good
For three years you said Sheeds would be coaching Richmond
Keep the subject open a bit longer lol

only tell you what I know, please yourself

[Gigantor]

jack i reckon that meeting with Leigh is their one big shot at a biggie and if that fails which it might then they will settle for the so called second stringers

Lethal said last weekend on 3aw that there is still the thought of coaching but that confirms to him he doesn't want to coach again.

And I can confirm that certain people who sit next to Leigh in the 3AW box say that they think he will coach as well

[tiger101]

If he wants to coach again wouldnt he be better off waiting till next year when alot more coachs are out on contract. He could get a job with a club that has there list in alot better shape.

Alan Richardson seems to be the favourite amongst Bomber fans.

Unfortunately for him, the fans dont pick the coach

So the fans only sack the coach at Windy Hill
