Rumour Kevin Sheedy - The Essendon Puppet Master

[Cyclops]

I used to really respect sheeds, was a great coach and really stood up for his players.
But he shouldn’t have been anywhere near the club for the last 10 years, his philosophies and thoughts on footy are massively outdated and he comes across as borderline senile these days. Time to cut the cord

Fair enough, he was a very effective player in the 70's and a gun coach in the 80's (gave the zone rort clubs Hawthorn and Carlton some severe trouble). Loyal to a fault, the fault being Albert.

So no Sheedy and Dodoro? Bombers 2025 premiers incoming.

[Lavender Bushranger]

Oh this is too good.

 

[dmc333]

You just know

they can't help themselves LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

 

[Xtreme]

Sure he didn't finish the job burning the place to the ground

 

[Aussie in exile]

He might harbour ambitions to coach the bombers again, but I can't believe they would be dumb enough with all the baggage it would bring, and the clubs past history with thw drugs scandal.

 

[dmc333]

The Hird/Sheedy/Dodoro regime probably still have regular meetings as the Essendon administration in exile.

Ive heard Hawthorn offered to let them use their boardroom.

Probably plotting from Port Melbourne's headquarters.

 

[myblueroan]

Whatever it takes.

 

[StillAtLarge]

Smells like bs. Hird ain't coaching again at afl level

 

[Masked Magician]

Hird rules out coaching

James Hird has ruled out coaching for at least trhree years and says it probably will never happen

www.essendonfc.com.au

Hird absolutely wants to coach Essendon again

Oh they’re dumb enough, don’t worry about that.

It’s just a case of whether the cooler heads can head it off.

 

[Aristotle Pickett the3rd]

Lol , some crim coterie tossbag wants to bring back the douchebag who destroyed the club for ten plus years.

 

[Mr5000]

Caro with her annual Hird and Sheeds essendon takeover story

 

[M Malice]

Time to inject some common sense into the Bombers off field team.

 

[StillAtLarge]

Supposedly B Scott is a guest on Footy Classified tonight, Hird a panellist

[Cam Payne]

Hird, Hird, Hird, Hird is the word.

Scotty doesn't know.

 

[Rabish Binney]

Hird, Hird, Hird, Hird is the word.

Insert Hird instead of Bird.....

This could be the song Essendon run out to when Hird is coaching them again.....

[L_W_P]

What's the spin going to be?

It was all Thommo's fault? He was the one that brought in Dank and Robinson?

Going to be an absolutely surreal press conference if they pull the trigger on this...

 

[Thuggee_Cult]

Surely this must be all BS and clickbait fishing

There still cannot be a disgruntled factional group at Essendon still believing that "lets just get Hirdy back and everything will just snap back into place and we will be winning preeeemerships again. Nevermind our drafting, recruiting, development and general all round footy ops have been shizenhauzen for over 20 years but Jimmy will fix it"

Could there?

From the outside looking in, it looks like the Essendon board and club in general have finally woken up to where they are at both on and off field and are only now starting putting in the hard yards.
