Kevin Sheedy threads [merged]

[Hellenic Tiger]

I can't see Terry and Sheeds working together especially as a coach chairman of selectors relationship. Two characters who may not see eye to eye and the dynamics between them would be volatile and perhaps distabilising to the rest of the selection panel and the players.

D-day looms for Kevin Sheedy

D-DAY looms for Kevin Sheedy at a board meeting next week.

The long-time Essendon coach's future will be discussed - if not decided - by 10 directors at a board meeting chaired by Ray Horsburgh.

The club had planned to discuss whether Sheedy should continue into his 28th season at its monthly meeting in August, but it is believed Horsburgh will put it on the agenda a month early.

It is likely a decision will be made, but not made public until after the season. Complicating the issue is the fact if Essendon sacks Sheedy it will have to officially begin its search for a new coach.

All the talk in the media has Sheeds gone. The "powerful at Essendon" must have got the bombers recent draft history comments off OER lol .

But the powerful at Essendon aren't ignoring, either, that 14 of the team when it last resembled something like Essendon's best 22 — the combination that met Geelong in round 14 — were on an Essendon list in 2003.

James Hird, Dustin Fletcher, David Hille, Andrew Welsh, Mark and Jason Johnson, Jason Laycock, Scott Lucas, Adam McPhee, Mark McVeigh, Damien Peverill, Adam Ramanauskas, Jobe Watson and Courtney Johns were all at Windy Hill four years ago at the least, as were Matthew Lloyd and Jason Winderlich, who were unable to be out on the Telstra Dome turf for the occasion of Hird's 250th game.

That is not a team so radically overhauled between 2003 and 2007 as to justify the sort of Essendon downturn of the last three or four years that is attributed in this draft-literate era to rebuilding. Moreover, the improvement this year, apart from the impressive Paddy Ryder and Alwyn Davey, has been inspired by the return of a 29-year-old champion full-forward and the arrival of a now 30-year-old full-back for whom today is their time, not tomorrow.

Sheedy said yesterday that he thought Essendon might next be able to seriously contend in 2010. "I think that's about the right time … we made a decision a year-and-a-half ago to change the list and work through and recruit … we've had probably something like 50 per cent player turnover," he said.

But he must know that Hird, Fletcher, the Johnsons, Lucas, Peverill and Lloyd are likely to have slipped into retirement by then, if not earlier, taking with them their medals, premierships and sundry honours.
