A short chat with Sheeds

[Djevv]

Thanks Djevv. Do you think there was an inference there that Sheeds didn't think we have the people in place to do the same thing? I wonder if he's working with the club or if he's doing it off his own bat.

We don't have anyone with the influence and respect Sheeds has. Up here every second black kid goes for the Bombers.

I think he is doing it off his own bat. Same as Dreamtime at the G. I don't think it is accidental that that we take half the gate on that or that is vs the Tigers.

We should target a interstate club (Brisbane) as a blockbuster game. A bit like what Collingwood and Sydney have. Whenever Collingwood play Sydney up here they market the pants off it and Collingwood do the rounds in the western suburbs selling their brand.
Like to see us do the same thing at Brisbane / Gold Coast

10 years of Sheeds and some Tambling magic we will have half of them going for the Tigers. If he was coach, imagine his reaction to the comment from Gomez

A random one! Sorry it was in response to dievv's post on every second person in NT supporting The Bummers. Just chucked Gomez in there for no good reason!

You're not bloody wrong, I'm unhappy! We were awful! I'm shattered ... not to mention drunk! At least something went well. And I can confirm the Sheeds presence. I have a great pic but absolutely no idea how to attach it. Shook the great man's hand and had a great little chat about the tiges. Shame the tahs went down by 70pts in the 2s and 96pts in the seniors though. Bloody Carl Petersen played well shifting through CHF/Ruck/CHB for St.Mary's though.

It wasn't a game, it was a shame! :hihi

I liked Carl's game too, got a heck of a leap on him, why did Richmond get rid of him again?

What did Sheeds say to you?

BTW CC the Long boys don't play for St Marys any longer.

I agree as well

Me too, when Sheeds talks, the AFL listens and we need that.

I wasn't questioning his influence and/or respect in any way. Nobody needs to sell Sheeds to me...Sheeds sells himself pretty well anyway, he's a very clever bloke and one I've flown a lonely flag for on PRE at times. I just wondered, considering his claims of what he intends to do, if he's involved in any official capacity or if he's taken it upon himself to be our knight in shining armour. I don't particularly care either way, I was just interested to know.

I don't think there is anything official, just a desire on his part to help the club however he can. That was my impression anyway.
