Kevin Sheedy threads [merged]

[Ramps]

Francis Bourke also named as a supporter of the Sheedy to Richmond campaign by SEN.

A month ago or so KB wanted Malthouse because he was the only man for the job and the best credentialled  ???. Sheedy's days as coach are over.

The old past players spruiking their old teammates again   

Stay tuned

Jacko is the new Reuters of the RFC

Do you think the board will be unable to resist the supporter sentiment now that all the legends are on board?

Of course not.  The board have been pandering to back room supporters for the last couple of years.
They will get what they want 

[Ramps]

sensational stuff right here

Excuse my ignorance but are you a RFC legend?

 ???

 

Errrr no I am not

My point was: all these Club legends coming out and supporting Sheeds, may seduce (appeal) to some people but it doesn't inspire me to think suddenly Sheedy should be appointed RFC coach.

Is that clearer now 

[blaisee]

Blaisee earlier you said this

sheeds coaching richmond wont happen, he is washed up, finished

Now this in response to Ramps saying he thinks it could be done and dusted due to supporter sentiment

thats why we are a rabble and will continue to be so

Do you think the board will be unable to resist the supporter sentiment now that all the legends are on board?

It would go against everything they are trying to achieve, and i would be extremely suprised and it would be a huge mistake IMHO, but ......  I wouldnt rule it out.

It is an open secret in the AFL that the past players association of the RFC runs the club. Its a disgrace.

Sheedy is finished and the other 15 afl clubs know it, lets all hope the rfc know it too.

I really see this tiny hail stone gatering mementum and turning into an avalanche, just like the Cuz snow ball. Look if we get Sheeds so be it, let's face it he does have the talent and he is proven, he is also the best market face for our club.

I was dead set on youth but hey what the heck, he still has the passion, he would be back home and I don't think Essendon would beat us again....

He has some huge alies at the moment with; Bartlett (who mentioned he would support Sheeds at the club, so expect to see him in the rooms), Hafey, Hird, Bourke etc...

This is where I can see the "process" being followed and Sheedy given the job anyway, or the hoards will rise on the command of Bartlett and co, march down to the RFC headquaters and demand it happen, ala Cuz.

[Francois Jackson]

we dont have an issue at the RFc with marketing our club, so i see no reason why they would go for Sheeds.

If he is recruited to the top job because he is the best out there, then so be it but i doubt he is.

he is a washed up ex player who stuffed us off for 25 years. BANG!!!! 

Enough said!!!

Always interesting to find ot the sentiment on this site, as i do think its only the hard line richmond supporter's that post. I can't think of a problem with Sheedy taking over as coach next year. He would not take the job if he didnt think we could be succesful in the next five years and at this point i'll take that. 2 years out of the game and has got the passion back & he loves the club as much as any one. I think a combination of Sheedy and Hardwick/Brad Scott type in an assistant role would bring the best of both worlds.

[Jackstar is back]

sheeds  was rejected from the demon job,

he will not be considered for the north job


All of a sudden he wantd to coach the tigers.

No way, where were you sheeds when we needed you for 25 yrs, and you used us to get more money from the bombers. pee off back to your retirement home

sheeds coaching richmond wont happen, he is washed up, finished

Stay tuned , he aint washed up.
They will have a completely different structure to the other clubs in the AFL.   
Cant wait for a few on here to go off the head when he gets the job.
It would be a great opportunity to develop a future coach in say 2 -3 years to take over, Have no problems with Kevin overseeing the process.
And as for a few here who posted what a mess he left Essendon in, you have no idea.

Cambo or Hird?

Please not Buckley.

Maybe Ashley Prescott as a smokey. Didn't he win the Claremomt Tigers two flags?

 

[Ramps]

Its either Campbell or Hird. The Sheedy Hird combo rumour was around weeks ago, infact I think I first posted it on here ... although I think that its more likely to be Sheedy Campbell rather than Sheedy Hird.

What makes you think Hird needs Sheedy's help to become a senior coach? Its much more likely the other way around!

[Ramps]

Hird doesnt need anyones help rather because he is busy with his management consultancy business and his family he may want to an easier entry point to coaching and being under Sheedys wing for 2 years may seem a good solution for him. Basically it buys him more time whilst giving him the necessary experience required to coach. In the end however I think its more likely that Campbell is going to be the successor.
