Went to a sportsman's night a few years back now where a very famous CFC personality - club legend in fact - was speaking. Not all present were Blues supporters. Someone asked him about Sheedy and his response was somewhat colourful - no love lost there at all. In fact one of his favourite memories of his time in the game was dumping Sheedy on his a-rse.

Sounds like Robert Walls. Those two have never got on.

Could that fine for Lamb be overturned? Aren’t there some things off limit?

IMO Mark Harvey is disabling things behind the scenes at the Scum..
Wants to be the next coach.

Look up flog in the Dictionary and there's a picture of hum. Ignore him, he's irrelevant.
I thought it was a picture of Goddard? :o

Apparently it was during the same incident that Charlie made the umpire contact, so umpires must have overheard Baguley, the umpires were right on the spot!

Jones and Rowe were the right combination for Essendon.
Weitering only plays in the backline if the match-up is a better option.
The problem is Weitering is too good a player to be playing VFL.
He doesn't play the Rowe role...it has to be the Jones one.
While Jones performs we have to find another role for Weitering...rotation off the bench for Jones, wing....or as Barbs suggests maybe the Plowman one.
Eventually both Jones and Rowe will be gone and that's when Weitering steps in... but it might be a few years down the track.
The other option is Weitering becomes a "gold plated" trade option
Let's not forget Weitering has struggled at senior level this year.
Was on about it before Round 1. Its taken until Round 8 for people to start to agree with me.
I've stated repeatedly that i have nothing against Weitering, although some seem to not believe that, and it is simply about what is best for the team on any given day.
I've also said Weitering can and will dominate at VFL level.
For the record, i don't want to trade Weitering. If he is nothing but #1 backup, he is still the best #1 backup in the league. You will always need depth.
If he can somehow fix his weaknesses, or have a different role created for him, then so be it.
But simply playing him because he is a former #1 pick with talent CAN actually hurt your chances of winning, and i think we've seen that a few times this year.
People need to check their emotions at the door when evaluating this type of thing, which i know is easier for some.
