One week to go ?

[ant555]

I havnt seen it confirmed but with channel 10 saying that the board will meet next week will we know one way or another about the coaching situation ?
I hope they do. If they want to replace him it would be good to plan a fairwell game for him but even more importantly we need to have our new coach ready to go as as early as we possibly can.

If Sheeds isnt going to coach next season, i hope we dont appoint a untried coach ala Tim Watson.

Gary O'donnell has been an assistant for a some time at Brisbane & now at our club, he would be the front runner wouldnt he?

But on match day he couldn't coach his way out of a paper bag. Good bloke, but no thankyou.

It would be like a second or third marriage- the chances of it working are slim, there are better out there. And Horsburgh knows it.

 

[bomberlegend2007]

It will be either Gary O'Donnell or Mark Harvey

Reading between the lines i think Horsburgh is very pro Sheeds

 

[hulld]

that's what i thought after hearing him on radio a month ago.

but it was strange to see sheedy so animated on the channel 10 news. what they were talking about obviously got sheeds fired up.

perhaps it was his future, perhaps not???

horsburgh said that it was about the game this week so maybe they were talking about whether or not leroy has done enough to deserve selection this week. i reckon sheedy wants him in but maybe the powers to be aren't too keen

 

[Burzum]

Guy McKenna FTW!

 

[DannyJames13]

Gary Odonnel. Has had a good apprenticeship under Matthews and Sheeds and he always looks excited and enthusiastic about the bombers. but I reckon it won't matter anyway. Sheeds stayin is my guess.

Sorry to be picky mate, but I've seen it a few times and it irritates me, it's 'the powers that be'.

My preference is for Sheedy to stay, but if he is leaving then I'd like to see either Guy McKenna or Gary O'Donnell get the top job.

 

[Wahooti Fandango]

If Sheeds does go then I reckon a non-essendon person should replace him (e.g. McKenna or Longmire). It would be good to get some new ideas etc. at the club.

 

[Bomberland06]

I think gary oddonnell would be the perfect guy for the job next year, he knows the players and he would ready to coach the team as he has been assistant for few years now.

 

[ManWithNoName]

What about Mick McGuane? Very big wraps on him.

 

[RED AND BLACK SOLDIER]

We need a smart coach, who doesn't need a good list to get good results out of a team eg. Dean Laidley, but im not too sure if i'd want him at the club as iv'e never been a huge fan of him.

Hate's Essendon.

 

[Darealrath]

Guy McKenna FTW!

Agree. Was chatting to a mate during the last qtr on sat night and we both thought he might be the best in waiting.

I thought Sheedy would stay until the last fortnight, but he's talking too much about his job now, giving the impression he knows he's up against it and is trying a bit too hard to sell himself.

Horsburgh wouldn't have been so successful in business if he wasn't prepared to make tough decisions if he thought necessary so I'm pretty happy he's at the helm for this one.

 

[monty1104]

I still reckon Mark Bickley would be awesome if we could convince him to leave the media, but that would take a huge contract. Otherwise I'd go for Chris Bond or Guy McKenna

 

[mojon95]

What about, Dean Wallis?

Don't know much about his coaching ability

 

[RED AND BLACK SOLDIER]

Guy McKenna sounds pretty good, having been an assistant at West Coast and now Collingwood during this year when he's helped coach a depleted Collingwood side to a top 8 finish if not more.

NOT IN A MILLION YEARS......

*prays to the gods*

 

[ant555]

Lot of support for GOD the coach of our midfield which hasnt exactly lifted the bar much in his time with us........
