Swap Sheedy for Wallace?
Well said. They are welcome to Sheedy, but in the spirit of the generosity, they don't have to give Wallace in return. -
Bendigo lose again
I don't know why anyone would be considering Knights anyway. As Danny Frawley showed, coaches from a losing culture just coach like losers. Someone like Voss is what we need to replace Sheedy. Aside from being from a winning culture, he'd bring good exposure in Queensland. -
Is it time for a new coach - Sheedy?
I’d be happy to swap you Sheeds for Wallace. That said, I have a soft spot for Richmond and want them to do well, and I don’t think Sheedy would be the man for you. I also don’t think Wallace would be the man for Essendon. I’d like to get Voss. He was the kind of player that I liked. Really... -
Next years draft
It is quite interesting that people have given up already. Personally, I think the team is full of talent with a good mix of key position players, speed, experience and youth. On paper, I think it could go all the way. I don’t rate the coach much anymore, but that is another story. Maybe the... -
Too racially focussed
My appreciation for higher education stems from experience. As for appreciating stay at home mums…well, all I can say is that it is not the 1950s anymore. It is just unfortunate that there are a few stranglers living in the past. -
Krakouer has run out of lives
You’re a bit hard on him. Small forwards need to play in good teams and the Tigers just aren’t that at the moment. I think you Tiger fans need to chill. You didn’t play badly at the start of the year, your best players are injured, and you are rebuilding. Settle for a year of failure, get a... -
Too racially focussed
I'm also getting the feeling that it would be good if Kevin Rudd wins the upcoming election, increases funding for higher education, encourages more Australians to complete high education, and then we will longer have a problem with the Mantises of the world. -
Too racially focussed
I agree. (Although Sheedy has had times recuited people for reasons other than ability. I heard that Daniel McAllister was recruited largely because Sheeds wanted to coach a Moari. Bit of a waste of a pick that one.) I think Essendon could learn something from the other clubs where race isn’t... -
Too racially focussed
Overall, most of our Aboriginal boys are playing in the VFL. They are not, like Aboriginal players from other clubs, winning Brownlow medal votes. So overall, I wouldn't say they are too flash. Maybe Ryder will become another Polly Farmer or Adam Goodes. Maybe Jetta will become another McCloud... -
Too racially focussed
No disrespect to our Aboriginal boys, but I’m not sure if you can put them in the same class as Goodes, Olaughlin, McCloud, Peter Burgoyne, Jeff Farmer, Shaun Burgoyne, Daniel Pearce, Wirrpunda or Chris Johnson. Maybe our boys will get there, but actions speak louder than words, and perhaps... -
In's & Outs : last 50 games !
I've got a soft spot for Richmond. I've always thought the players have a real go, and really put their heart in. I think the problem is that you always recruit weak-bondied panzies such as Pettifer. Even his name I dislike. Reminds me of female underwear. Then there is Fiora. His name has... -
Delist Richo!
Not a Richmond fan either, but I do have a soft spot for them. Richo is a great mark, perhaps one of the best marks I've seen. But he just can't kick the goals when he needs to. It is really deflating for the team to do all this great work, get it to Richo who takes a great mark, but then see... -
Too racially focussed
Essendon's focus on race is starting to irritate me. After reading this article in the Age, http://realfooty.com.au/news/news/firstgamer-don-repays-faith-in-him/2007/05/11/1178390561188.html, it seems I'm not the only one. Yes Houli is a Muslim, but he was neither the first Muslim to play AFL... -
New Coach
I'd say time has really caught up with Sheeds. One of the problems is that like most old people, he tends to put ideology before new ways of doing things. His rantings against flooding were the classic "In my day things were better…I wont be changing…" I actually remember that when he first came... -
Japanese try to rewrite history on 'comfort women"
Then cease responding to my posts. I've tried to help you out by giving you the clarification that you find so difficult to grasp, but I've grown very weary of your banality.- Words: 33
