Congratulations Jade Sheedy - 250 Games

[Dutchy]

Great player and good to see someone getting up to 250 still. Well done.

[Jimmy]

Congrats sheeds. Great player.

[Sam_goUUUdogs]

One of very few opposition players I actually don't mind, easily one of the top 10 or so SANFL players for the last decade IMO.

[southee]

The player I most repect in the SANFL.

Champion player....champion bloke.

Well done Sheeds

Congratulations Sheeds. One of the few players who began his SANFL career before I left the country who's still playing.
Let's win this one for Sheeds!

[fish]

Well done on a great career.

(and sorry for the insults I hurled at you during the 2002 GF )

[story of my life]

saw a fair bit of this bloke in the early to mid 2000's and could never figure out why he didnt get drafted, when you compare him to some blokes that did around that time

[saintal]

Great career to this point. Much respected.

[JK]

Star player, who is thoroughly deserving of the admiration of Sturt and opposition supporters alike. Well done.

[CUTTERMAN]

Well done Sheeds, we're lucky to have you at Sturt and for so long. Been a great player, leader and and a good bloke. What a champion!

I can't improve on those comments... Sturt through and through...

[sjt]

Congratulations. I can't recall him playing a bad game against us. One of those players, as mentioned that would not have been out of place in the AFL.

[Barto]

Wouldn't have happened had AFL clubs started looking at "mature age" players a few years sooner.

Out and out champion of the football club.
