AFL legend Kevin Sheedy reckons the “losers and sooks” complaining about Greater Western Sydney’s meteoric rise need to get a life.

Sheedy, who served as the Giants’ inaugural coach in 2012 and 2013, says it’s great for the game that GWS have made it into a preliminary final in such a short period of time.

“People can walk around with negatives all of their life … tell them to get a life,” he said on Monday.
