Grew up with Bruce and Denis around all this mayhem. So much more entertaining than these former footy players who don't spend any time studying the game and talk about what they used to do.
It was a great place to grow up in the UK, I was stuck in the USA and Holland for a good part of my youth and missed out on the fantastic sense of humour and the much more easy going British girls.
Sheedy was a terrific coach, to do what he did over phases of success and otherwise over an extended period is an outstanding performance and very hard to do. Walls has a bit of a point there, but to denigrate one of the greatest coaches of all time in that way was ridiculously unfair on Sheedy. The fact is that Sheedy would have been an outstanding coach no matter which club he went to, and showed rare loyalty and persistence sticking with the one team, when he would have been offered more to go elsewhere. Not to mention the outstanding things Sheedy did for his club and the game. Walls could have made his point in another way, and the fact he did that by denigrating Sheedy just indicates the underlying animosity between the two great players and great coaches.
@@richardbehan8118 Sheedy doubted the Swans ability to pay the promised amount, as did a number of others who knocked back Edelsten's offers, such as Simon Madden.
i think the biggest comment that gives walls the points in the debate was. have you ever gone to the bank to pull money out of your personal account to pay your best and fairest winner.
Caroline telling Kevin he was distracted and how much time he must been stewing over Robert Walls.. Is she bloody psychic or something? He did well to hold his cool after that absolute uninformed dribble.
He shut her down quick smart, it was funny. Imagine telling someone how they felt about something. She hasn't changed a bit, got more aggressive & insufferable if anything.
Robert Walls will be proven right about his time at Brisbane later in 2001 when this video was taken and then the subsequent 2 years when the Lions won 3 GF in a row 2001 to 2003 beating Essendon in the 2001 GF
I lost all regard for Robert Walls the day I saw him kick his Collingwood opponent while he was lying on the ground. This was at Virginia Park Carlton Versus Collingwood. Note; I was an Essendon supporter, dragged along, unwillingly, to watch my 2 least favourite teams.
I saw Robert Walls deliberately KICK his opponent 50 mts behind the play in a MCG match . Today’s Cameras would see him suspended for some 6 to 10 matches!
Like the Aussie coat of arms. Neither can take a backward step. I thought Bruce handled it well and Caroyln was more reserved than she is these days. Comments like "Well you've never coached" from sheeds. Today she'd be like how could I. Things have definitely changed. Sheeds went to GWS even 😂
Thought at the time watching it that Walls came across better and think so now. Especially when Sheedy was critical of Walls on Libba for his behind the play incident when Sheedy had lost it at Mitchell White the year before in similar circumstances.
They never really got along as the years went on. I know Robert walls is battling a serious cancer issue at the moment, he’s been away from football for a while now. Gerald Healy went and saw him in March and was told he only has a few months to live
@@williamchristopher5653 A team that had to win four consecutive finals after finishing 7th, and were thus rank underdogs in every final?! Most impressive I've seen! Baby Bombers were minor premiers and very impressive, but benefitted from an Eagles premiership hangover.
Walls, a man of integrity. Sheedy, a thug. Essendon were dirty under the thug. A good coach gets his team to win by skill, not take out key players in the opposition.
@@richardbehan8118 Both are. If you are saying that Walls wasn't. 259 games, over 400 goals, played state football, 3 premierships including a best on ground with 6 goals in 1972. Played the hardest position on the field which was Centre Half Forward and finally coached Carlton to a flag. Dead set legend of the game.
@@terrya8989 the AFL Hall of Fame legends inductees list says different. He was a good player and an ok coach.. Definitely not a legend, unlike Kevin Sheedy.
Controversy ?.........Que?.......Just a bit of theatre , Sheeds was always good at that ! Pick a target , fluff it up to something it never was .....theatre. ..great for tele and the media.
@@gpet23 yeh, he only cleaned out most of the players before his first 2 premierships, then rebuilt again for '93. If that's "bugger all" then you are delusional. Lol "defeated". Good one 👍
Walls wins because eventually Sheedy coached a wooden spoon team and built a club at GWS and gained that next level of experience. Can't denigrate Sheeds survival instincts at the Bombers (and still last coach of a finals win) but fact is fact - less variety of experience than Walls and Malthouse
Footy at peak , it was bloody awesome back in the 90,s early 2000,s
The 70's and 80's were even better
@@chrish4469really? Just a bunch of snipers back then. Footy was hard and much cleaner in the '90's and early and mid 2000's

Here I am watching this again! :)
This was epic! Won't see anything like this these days.
I remember watching this live as a 14-year-old.
It was a great place to grow up in the UK, I was stuck in the USA and Holland for a good part of my youth and missed out on the fantastic sense of humour and the much more easy going British girls.
@@wasteofspace20 How on earth is this relevant to the video???
@@mikespearwood3914 just a dumb troll..
Robert Walls is a huge reason the two Queensland clubs exists.
He did a job. Somebody else would've done it. Having teams in QLD was always inevitable.
Thanks for posting this never got to see this episode but always heard so much about it .
It's the first time that Caro was quiet for more than 5 minutes 😂
Also the last
Caro was a lot more comfortable with Sheeds than Wallsy maybe a magnetic connection was forming 😂😂
Thanks for posting

He didn't denigrate him, Sheedy just got his knickers in a twist.
Sheedy was offered a bucket load by Sydney and turned it down.
@@richardbehan8118 Sheedy doubted the Swans ability to pay the promised amount, as did a number of others who knocked back Edelsten's offers, such as Simon Madden.
@@sentimentalbloke185 Richmond also went after him and probably countless others we don't know about
@@richardbehan8118 that's for sure, Edelsten offered huge $$,
Sheeds had his misgivings but he coached Essendon for 27 seasons and finished on top of the ladder at the end of the home and away season 7 times
i think the biggest comment that gives walls the points in the debate was. have you ever gone to the bank to pull money out of your personal account to pay your best and fairest winner.
Powerful stuff
Sheeds embarrassed himself this night.
'Hadn't won a final for 13 or 14 years'. Ha, that all.
Spoken like a true Tiger. Yep, those 37 years were pure pain.
This is great stuff
times were better back then
Both great players at their respective clubs, good coaches too.
i Have never liked Robert Walls ,At least Kevin speaks a bit more honest
Remember Robert Walls coming to Thomastown East PS, maybe late 60's early 70 's.
Both these guys were great, so where the times
Any chance anyone has a copy of that victory they’re referring to between the blues and bombers? It was round 3, 2001. I cannot find it anywhere!

I should look at the conversation between Brian Clough and Don Revie in 1974
Cloughie won that debate no problem……. Then proved it in 79 & 80 with the European Cup wins. GREAT days.

Monday Night where talking footy
With Bruce
Great stuff
Up there with Ange Postecoglou vs Craig Foster
I saw Robert Walls deliberately KICK his opponent 50 mts behind the play in a MCG match . Today’s Cameras would see him suspended for some 6 to 10 matches!
I saw your mum do some pretty dirty things behind play too!
@@andyshazza no you didn't, you couldn't get a root in a sheik's harem.
I saw Sheedy kick, a Glenelg player in the face at the traditional end season carnival in 1973 at Adelaide Oval. What's your point.
I think Bruce may have been dyeing his hair
Look at the crap condition of Marvel Stadium beck then.

"Never let a team DOMINATE you!" 🤣
This has aged quite well for Walls I reckon.

Most tough guys in the old days were snipers ! Dirtbags
Like being in someone's loungeroom.
What’s the relationship like with these 2 these days in 2024?
They never really got along as the years went on. I know Robert walls is battling a serious cancer issue at the moment, he’s been away from football for a while now. Gerald Healy went and saw him in March and was told he only has a few months to live
@@thevman5226 Walls is currently in remission from leukaemia; Sheedy sent best wishes..
@@petesmitt that’s great to hear!!

Sheeds deserves a lot of credit for coaching the 93 Essendon team to a flag. Probably the most impressive premiership ever

Clever
What’s your point, It’s called bringing an adult ?

As always; the Footy show excelled at it for decades.

love bruce
Special
"Gee it's been exciting, hasn't it?"
Seems like the journos ganging up on Sheeds..
Go an listen to the 12th man the best of Bruce…
6:30 as is now
Walls with the W
😂😂 good one
Otherwise it’d be “alls”
Needs the “W”.
Walls was really wrinkly for 50..
Walls absolutely rinsed sheedy
Kevin Sheedy was overrated
Sheedy is full of himself wallsy is a gentleman
