Sheeds sits down to interview nine footy icons he has long admired and who don't normally (for various reasons) have their stories told.

Icons of Footy: The Greatest Players and Coaches of My Lifetime includes interviews with Gary Ablett Senior, Allen Aylett, Ron Barassi, Kevin Bartlett, Malcolm Blight, Barry Cable, Wayne Carey, Alastair Clarkson, Jason Dunstall, Graham Farmer, Lance Franklin, Adam Goodes, Royce Hart, Francis Hughes, James Hird, Alex Jesaulenko, Leigh Matthews, Kevin Murray, John Nicholls, Barrie Robran, and Michael Tuck.

This is the eighth book from Sheeds, who is considered one of the most unique and colourful characters in Australian sport. Any football or sports fan will enjoy reading this book from one of the biggest figures in Australian Rules football.
