What if he walks MT?
He didn't sound like a man wanting to walk on Wednesday when a group of us spoke to him. As I've said before his ego wouldn't allow him. I mean certain folk here call him a shifty, snake oil salesman who only cares about himself. Now even if that's so then more the reason he won't walk out on a contract with 2 years left to run.

You fail to see the big picture.
there will be no payout
Can tell you that the majority of Richmond people want Wallace out the door due to the damage he has done.  eg Going against board directives by drafting playing over 25 years of age.. This club has endured enough pain, if you want to endure another two more years, yeah right. People are sick of it, Frawley now wallace.
Clean the place completely out, no jobs for mates, eg wayne Johnson ::)
His comments at the start of the year were a disgrace, The NAB CUP thing blew up in his face with him breaking down key players before seasons start( Dont see Roos doing that, do you)
WP answered most of the points for me but these so-called Richmond people have only themselves to blame. I didn't realise the current crop of officials were responsible for the past 25 years of failure. Maybe if these so-called Richmond people could look past their own egos and nose and had some discipline and professionalism in the past to allow the Club the stability to see through implemented plans and not function like the rabble it has been for over two decades we wouldn't be in this mess in the first place for them to have had enough now ::). Sorry Jack screw what they think.

The Swans have copped injuries this year despite how good Roos and the Swans medical resources are and have been. That's why they are mid-table. In any case if you applied the sack to one bad fitness and coaching year to Thompson and Laidley they wouldn't be coaching this year. Hell what happened to Sheeds last year. More twangs than a Warner Brothers cartoon.

Sheeds was a great coach but his time has come and gone just as Pagan's has. Time to move on.

Quote from: Jackstar
BTW, Mal Michael would kill Kent Kingsley , but thats not the point, see the big picture.
And at least Kepler Bradley has play some games, JON wont!
hate to say Paddy Ryder 7 and JON 8 ? Oh dear
Also have had a close look at the Bendigo Bombers, who of the genuises here say that they havent got any good young players ::)
Fair Dinkum,
Ryder will be a star but very little else to get excited about at Bomberland at this stage. Blokes like Watson, Winderlich and Stanton are 5 year players who took 4 years at least to come on; They're not kids. Funny how at Richmond we write our kids off after 2 years  ::). Michael, Fletcher and co aren't the big picture. In 2 years they'll be gone as will many of their older players. That's why Sheeds got the flick.

Sheeds on the footy show said a bit of landscape has opened up. If it doesn't happen he'll take 12 months off. They asked him would he go to another club but not as senior coach and Sheeds said that's the bit of landscape. He said Melbourne clubs need more help and experience around the place.
Going by what Sheeds said on the footy show he is thinking of coming to Punt Rd in some capacity as March has offered. I don't have a problem with that. He would add to the Club especially in an off-field role. It's just that his days as a senior coach have past.

Whats amazing why people want to talk about other clubs.
Lets focus on the RFC for a minute.
2 wooden spoons in 4 years.
Terrible culture which hasnt improved with the current coach.
Poor recruiting over a numbers of years which HASNT improved in the past 3 years under Miller and co.
A current game plan which is a joke.
Inexperienced  assistant coaches
Inability to bring the best out of the current group of players with players under achieving
If anyone thinks the club is heading in the right direction, good luck to you because I dont !

The Essendon football club is pretty relevant to the discussion  ::)

Wrong, just deflecting from the mess the RFC is in at the moment.

True that. ;D

Wallace signed for 5 years as disastrous on the face of it as this year has been he deserves to at least be given another season.

...and for all those on the Sheedy bandwagon he does not come with Hird, Lloyd, Lucas, Fletcher in their prime and all the other fine footballers at Essendon over his time.
He comes with a team in decline that has made some extremely questionable decisions in recent years.

When some people are pushing for change to the coach and the person they are pushing forward has a worst record over the past 3 years with a more experienced list than the coach we've got at the moment then I'd argue it is relevant. Changing coaches doesn't change the culture of clubs btw. Richmond is the classic example of that.

Too change the coach now would be adhering to that culture now wouldn't it.
AND that is what we are trying to change isn't it  ???

I still expect and believe there will be a reasonable improvement next year, if not - well we will see.

Yesterdays man!

He has trouble stringing a sentence together these days & his answers to Q's bare little resemblence to the Q. Have a listen to his next press conference. Essendon aren't chopping him for no reason - aren't offering another club position either.

President of the past players at best!

xXx I haven't read anything you have posted yet that resembles factual. Only the bagging and whinging that makes me gringe.

Try telling us who you like rather than who you don't.

Richo (legend & 11 time goal kicking award) & Joel (dual B & F) are like tiger sons & we don't bag family in public!!

I think you're right, Rog
He knew he was gone in January and made sure he made it known to the biggest gossips in town just so he could feel the market after the Bombers lol  :shh
