UMPIRING Suggestion.
May 21, 2007
We coaches have a responsibility to help our great game.
Year in year out, leagues are having an enormous problem recruiting umpires.
All coaches need to take more interest in umpiring and the development of umpiring for the sake of the game.
SHEEDY —- The Enduring Mentor
May 17, 2007
What right have the media gurus to tell Kevin Sheedy (after 27 years at the helm) he is finished as a coach, or at least should give up coaching at Essendon. The advice is particularly ironic because most media personnel have never coached VFL or AFL football, and only a handful have played the game at the elite level. They also earn their bread and butter by offering opinions which dramatize the ordinary in order to sell newspapers.
