Sheedy came from a successful club at the time and saw what made Tom Hafey tick close up and still has closeness to Tom such is the Bond.
Hardwick has worked closely with Sheeds as has Choco and Hardwick has worked closely with Choco and Clarkson another Choco prodige all from winning cultures.
Even Bucks has played under Matthews, Walls and Malthouse all who have experienced success so he knows what it takes.
All these prospective coaches still have closeness with their coaches and genuinely respect and listen to what they have to say so it is fair to say their mentoring was from someone whose credentialls are excellent.
Campbell- KB Walls, Northey, Walls Giesche, Spud, Wallet and worked with Eade and Wallet. Not the best role call there even though Walls and Jeans were prem coaches but their best was behind them by the time they got to the club and all due respect to Eade who is doing okay, but the education is definentely not there. Its like asking a yr 11 student to graduate from the Melbourne Uni Law Faculty with Honours without completing their VCE or attending tutes and lectures once at Uni. Does not make sense.
Buckley I'm warming to and I hope he is not cockteasing us
Hardwick would be just as good now also.
Should both be sounded out and hunted down
