Agree with you on Daniher !!!
But i dont actually mind Wallace - his era with the Bulldogs with what they had as a playing group was pretty good. With Richmond though I guess the jury is out.

Sheeds is a master of the media and his high profile has created a perception of "master coach". But does his record stack up? Under Sheeds, Essendon have won 4 premierships in 27 years, 2 of which he grabbed in his first 5 years. Take those 2 early flags out and, since 1985, the Bombers have played in 3 grand finals and won 2. That's 2 premierships in 22 seasons.
Mind you, he is a great coach, his promotion of Essendon has been outstanding and he has helped the Bombers achieve one of the highest membership bases of any Victorian club - just not sure if his record warrants all the awe.

In regards to Sheeds replacement, In my opinion, the Essendon footy club has become too stale and predictable, and the club should look at recruiting a coach from outside of it's own nest
it is time for a fresh approach, and a fresh set of eyes

Did you read what I wrote re coaches and the resources that they have available to them?
Which club has significantly better resources, the Crows or the Demons?
Daniher has done an outstanding job with what he has been given to work with, imagine how he might go with all the resources that the Crows have and a home ground advantage in Football Park.

hondo71 wrote:4 flags in 22 seasons doesn't make sense ..... you have to use a span of years. I understand your point tho and I agree it is a bit unfair to remove some of his better (early) years and pretend they never happened. And a lot of coaches would like to have 4 premierships on their resume. Mind you, a lot of coaches would like a 27 year guaranteed stint in the job too.
All I am saying is that since he won 2 premierships in 84 and 85 with one of the greatest teams in VFL history, he maybe hasn't had the premiership success that his perception might lead you to believe. Not to say he has done a bad job - but maybe his high profile has let the club tolerate more lean years than other clubs might. Based on the opening to the thread, maybe the club is starting to look at it the same way. Or maybe he has had enough ....
