Kevin Sheedy threads [merged]

Moi, Sheeds to Richmond has nothing to do with me.
More like the high rollers who bankroll the club, now theres a cryptic clue.

high rollers who bankroll...motorola...if that's the case, they can get nicked. The sponsors have no say in who is coach. They can bugger off and we'll get a newer sponsor.

This is a business , not the local footy club Gordon.
Sponsors have a big say unfortunately ,thats the way it is.
If Sheedy was to coach Richmond which I beleive will happen, The sponsors will be lining up.
Can also tell you that current players have lost there way, so you work out what will happen next.

Jack what are the odds of:

1) Sheedy returning to punt road in some form other than as coach
2) sheedy coming to coach

I assume it is the more experienced players who have "lost their way with Terry."    RE: 2011

FFS - ITS NOT THE COACH THAT IS THE PROBLEM HERE!

it's blokes that hide behind the coach excuse.

Like i said before,we all know that the PLAYERS ARE CAPABLE of better performances but are too stuffen soft to have a crack.

We should not sack the coach for Sheedy.

Ur all dreamers and have learnt nothing......In 5 years u would all be calling for Sheedys head,saying the game has past him by,etc

Pack of gossip mongers.

[blaisee]

Terry would be under the pump big time.
Sheeds with an apprentice, your on the money!
An the apprentice will be a favorite son!

if mathew knights comes back to richmond after failing at port adelaide, and failing at bendigo, fair dinken i will spew up

stop spinning poo jack, this wont happen, sheeds is finished, thank god the richmond board know it too.!

[blaisee]

I will repeat what I have been saying all along.


No chance of sheeds at richmond next year, none.

Sheeds may well coach again, but not at tigerland. that dream is dead. Thank God

Little secret here Blaisee
The deal with Sheeds was nearly over the line 3 years ago,
Just ask your friend Greg Miller who supported Wallace and not the ""BIG PICTURE""  This is fact.
If is wasnt for Miller, Sheeds would of been in his third year at Punt road and we wouldnt be on the bottom and we wouldnt have pretenders and mates as assistant coaches.
Ask the players what they think of Wallace. mail is worse than SPUD

Like they're opinion is worth anything after the way they have played to save the club

I imagine ur talkig about the same lot Of duds that were actually there when spud was ..............and BLAMED HIM AS WELL.........see the patern?

Why the decision has been made – won’t comment on that.  What he will say is the board took the decision with 3 to 5 years in mind.  On paper, better performed than last year.  Bad luck last year and good luck this year.

If we’re looking at where we’re at, led very well by players like Hird, Fletcher, Mal Michael.  Lloyd came back.

The point about that is the youngest of those players is 29 years old.  The board sees the future of this playing list over the next 3 to 5 years, not a 1 to 2 year decision.

The reason why I'm afraid of Sheeds.  Not him or his coaching, just his propensity to make decisions to fill holes in a list with has beens a la Frawley.
And it's the reason they're getting rid of him.
When these players go from the Bombers, they're gonna make a nice hole in their list.  Surely Sheeds isn't that dumb he couldn't have looked into the future.
As the bloke said, he's being sacked for making 1 to 2 year decisions, not planning for sustained success.

Essendon's winning record since 2005 has been worse than even ours.

yea right,

nearly came 3 years ago, nearly came in 99, nearly in 94

nearly nearly nearly.

Never came because he isa selfish prick that couldnt give a stuff about the tigers if he did he has plenty of opportunities to come accross.

All of a sudden he gets the ass and he wants to come back.

I dont think so, and thank god the board agree with me.

He can pee off the old fart, he is finished and the tiger board know it

and as for mathew knights as a coach, please

he failed at port adelaide and has failed at bendigo, great resume

people need to stop living in the past, thats why we are poo, let wallet do his 5 years, after that we will reassess

[Hellenic Tiger]

Kevin Sheedy for coach no.
To take over Millers job yes.
It will put the pressure on Terry to actually coach the club and leave all that media stuff to Kevin. Also due to the fact that we are having such an awful season we can expect a drop off in memberships for next season. The euphoria and fanfare that Sheeds will create coming back to Richmond will mean a significant increase in membership. It would be derelict of the board to not look into this. Terry must be retained for his tenure any rash sacking of him will take away finance from other areas that need attention. After all we gave yeah nah yeah nah 5 years. We must at least follow Terry's 5 year plan through.
Miller is the person that should be squeezed out. Never been a big fan of the Hammerhead anyway.

Sheeds as mentor to Chris Bond? 

It has appeal.

How do we make it happen?
