Daniel, stop being such a bigot! It was not the 9th finish that got everyone excited, it was the promise of things to come! Now it didnt eventuate but we all we all thought it would, even you and youre mate Jack who were conspicious by your absenteeism once we strung a few wins together late last season.

English next time would be nice. 

Perhaps those with goggles on thought it would.

Whilst i thought we had a better year than the one before that i was under no illusions like most on this site seem to be.

I will start getting excited when we start beating top 8 sides.
When we get rid of list cloggers.
When he we improve our disposal efficiency.
When we start leading the tackle count week in week out.
When i start seeing our players block, shepherd and play as a team not play for each other.

You are living in la la land if u start believing that promises made by the RFC offseason will turn into on field success. Bull poo talks my friend

Caro's on 3aw. She just thinks the whole scenario is sad. Sad for Sheedy. Sad that he didn't listen to the Club. Sad he couldn't rest on a great coaching career of 27 years and move on. That all this really was only pumped up by a few old ex-players and people like her dad. She even had an argument with her Dad who didn't like what she wrote in her article.

That'll teach you to log in under a different nic  . Why didn't you email me or post from your home laptop?  Anyway send me a PM now with the banned nic and I'll free up the IP address for your work laptop.

Now Moi and Froars, what happens to wayne Campbell now ?

Maybe the club will appoint him
Or maybe he will go out and get some coaching experience which is what he should have in the first place
Maybe he'll run off with Daffy into the sunset
Who cares what he does 

Hilarious. Daffy and Campbell starring in Brokeback Mountain. But which one likes to be the taker??? I'm betting Campbell

[Infamy]

It may be too soon to call but Williams may replace Sheedy as a candidate given Ports performance against Melbourne today
On current form Melbourne may miss out on the priority pick, fair chance Freo will be on the bottom of the ladder after this week

Just goes to show its those stars of the 60's and 70's both on and off the field at the RFC who can't get past the fact their playing days are over and the only way to justify that is by running the club behind the scenes to fulfill their long gone dreams of youth grandeur glory and self adulation.

I have a new found respect for Caro she showed some sort of genuine care and feeling for the RFC and what it needs to do in writing that article. Hence ppl like her old man and others have totally seen it as nonsense and have found reason to criticise it based on their own personal agendas.

Well done Caro and well done RFC.
Time for the retirement home players and people from RFC in the 60's and 70's.
This bird is ready to fly away.

From the way the media were carrying on last night I was expecting some hardhitting story that made the Club come across as the bad guys. However reading the article this morning it displays an unflattering image of Sheeds from his comments. In fact those comments come across as someone very bitter. Actually the most bitter bits were about Melbourne. No idea what happened with Lyon and Hutchy has to do with the RFC.

The reality is virtually all AFL clubs in recent times (with the exception of Brisbane and Voss) have used a lengthy panel process to select a new senior coach so if you desperately want the job you're going to have accept it's part of the deal. No one is forcing anyone to go through the process so no point crying about having to go through it. If you are truly best man for the job then you will still come out on top at the end.

The older coaches also have to remember they were once a young coach starting out. Sheeds of all people should know that it was a young coach who turned a big 4 club with young players around that had been in a rut for many years.

[Jackstar is back]

it was also Sheeds who flew to Perth to get Cousins, against the wishes of March. Interesting hey

why do u like her like her?
i have seen better heads on dicks than on her shoulders, she thinks she knows it all but knows eff all, she tries to speak on behalf of others and bags who she wants but never ever criticises her dad for being the king of king eff ups

she  just hates being made a fool and because she has said sheedy wont coach she will do whatever she can to make sure he dosnt so she can say....i told u so........
sheedy is the man for the job, no ifs buts or maybes

TT, what do Caro's looks have to do with journalism?  I see you like playing the man (in this case the woman) and not the issue. You never gave me any basis to justify why you think Sheedy is the best man for the job.

Oh well, Sheeds himself pulled out of the race for the position with what I would call a flimsy excuse.  He is now blaming it on March's comments that he says he hadnt heard.  Comments said at a time when we had an incumbent coach.  Maybe Sheedy didnt hear March last week saying he would welcome Sheedy appling for the position....

Yep that's right have a go at a person's appearance. Typical.

Sheedy isn't the man for the job.

And that proves he can still be a senior coach at AFL level in 2010 and beyond ???.

Look I'm no fan of March but Sheeds knew all along the Club wasn't interested in him as the next coach. Why does he pretend to act so surprised now. He should never had put his hand up and he should have told KB and co. to shut up and let the Club go through the selection process quietly with no fanfare until the final appointment is made. The club needs generational change and until these old foggies let go of their egos and their outdated grip on the club that can't happen. Their 60s/70s generation has had nearly 30 years to get this club back on track and they either stuff things up time and time again or they preferred to be elsewhere than at Richmond when the Tigers needed them. It's 2009 and they've had their time and it's time for the Club to move on. Without them if need be if that's their choice and they can't accept they way things are done now. Perhaps without them and their interferring ways is the best option for the RFC.
