Open Mike - Malcolm Blight

[gPhonque]

Now that was a bloody great interview.

Jason Akerwho?

 

[Micksy]

Extended version on Sunday.

 

[Yabba]

Really enjoyable interview, are all of the interviews going to be 1 hour on Sundays now?

 

[Lord Nicholson]

Half-hour version was good, looking forward to the full hour. Hopefully there's more on his time at North.

One of the people in the AFL community that I have so much respect for. I still believe he would have a lot to offer as an AFL coach. One of the sharpest footy brains I have come across. Looking forward to watching the extended version of the interview on Sunday night.

Blight's awesome.

I'd love to see what he could do with this Collingwood side. If he coached them like he coached the Cats, they'd be completely unstoppable. Give them the cavalier attitude that he has and we'd see a monster side (not that they're not pretty damn good at the moment anyway), and it would amazingly fun to watch.

Watched the 1 hr version last night.
Good, but could have been better.
Not a fan of Sheahan, has a snobbish attitude to footy in non-Vic states, he jumps topics too often and focusses too much on the controversial aspects, which are important but not all-important.
Enjoyed Blight getting irritated with some of his questions and assertions though.

Could not agree more, as soon as Blight said no one cared about the VFL in SA back when he played there Mike quickly changed the subject.

Does anyone know if he talked about lining the Geelong players up in a guard of honour at the Crows race? If so what was his reasoning for this?

 

[Starburns_]

Just watched the hour long version, probably the best one all season.

Nah, he didn't, wasn't asked either.

No, it happened in Adelaide so Sheahan wouldn't be aware it ever took place.

Had the pleasure of playing under a Blight disciple. Some of the stories were amazing. You can see how he burnt out, the intensity was just incredible.

Pity the Saints burnt him.
