Publishers Description: In this extraordinary book, Tim Watson, one of Essendon's all-time greatest players, seeks out the truth about Kevin Sheedy and his 25-year reign as coach at Windy Hill. Sheedy himself has co-operated for the purposes of this book, but Watson baulks at none of the controversies - from Sheedy's role in the Hawthorn drug-taking allegations of 1984 to the board-inspired player revolt which threatened Sheedy's tenure in the late 1990s. Then of course there are the back-to-back premiership triumphs of 1984-85, the unexpected glory of 1993 and the unparalleled success of season 2000, on top of Essendon's emergence as an AFL superpower. Gathering together as many pieces of the puzzle as possible, Watson discovers the true essence of Kevin Sheedy - Jigsaw Man.
