I'm so pleased for Colin!! He's such a top bloke. And I remember after he had announced his retirement I had the chance to speak to him and asked if he knew what he was doing next and whether he would stay in Sydney. He said he definitely wanted to stay in Sydney and did I know of any jobs going, he was open to anything. So, seeing him being brought into the fold and evidently doing a good job is super pleasing.
He's following a little in the footsteps of Tadhg - Tadhg stayed involved after retiring for quite a while, although I'm not sure what he's doing now.

In something of a coincidence, Tahdg is the GWS Academy coach these days, since Oct '22.
Both top blokes. So glad they're still involved in footy.

Sounds like HHK linked to Sandringham
IIRC correctly we swooped on him before Saints did so Zebras would make a lot of sense. Hope he goes well.
Dan O’Keefe’s Warrnambool FNC have signed Ben Cunnington and Paddy McCartin’s old mate Aaron Black.

Officially signed with the Zebras
Knew he was no good

A shame we don’t value skilled medium forwards who kick straight more often than not.
I can see why we let him go but I would have preferred not to.
Wasn't that good , just a VFL standard player
Seemed to me his ceiling was likely higher than young Kirk. Happy to be proved wrong. In fact, I would have preferred Sheather over either of them. Rated him.

Rated both.

I think there's more to players than just the two and a half hours we see of them in the AFL/VFL games. There's variables like coachability, work ethic, professionalism, adaptability etc. that would all be considered when deciding who is worth offering a list spot to.
I also know someone that coached him in the system , great kid , but AFL a long shot
Absolutely true, but we can only go on what we see (and hear). In Sheather's case he got 3 games. I was O/S and didn't see them but am led to believe he did OK until he was injured again. I did see him live in VFL a couple of times and felt his positional discipline was excellent. He was quick, sure-handed and a good kick.
I don't know if the foot injuries hurt his speed like happened to Ling, which would certainly count against offering him a further contract, but up until then he looked the goods on all fronts.
I suspect he will be a good player for GWS VFL.

It will be an interesting watch. I thought, no matter where they played him, he looked like he belonged. For a newbie, he did not disappoint.
Obviously didn't impress the coaches
