Report on SEN (via MMM Adelaide) that with the interim ASADA report already out, Hird has been told to stand down or be sacked. By this Thursday.

Ricciuto says he has been told by a very reliable source. Also apparently CW has a big story to break tonight on FC.

Big news if true

    Was also mentioned on 360 and BT said its not true.

    Appears to be more than rumour. Resign or be forced out by the AFL for bringing the game into disrepute.

    Hird lost me when he sold out on Evans last week. He should have resigned himself and protected his Chairman, who from all reports had absolutely no idea that the "substitutes" were more than vitamin injections.

    Hird needs to leave the game for a few years like Carey had to.

    If proven to be true. I would suggest anyone living in Moonee Ponds / Essendon / Broady / Tullamarine and surrounding areas to move family & relos to safer ground. The fallout will be huge. Bomberblitz should make a good read for a decade or 2.

    Oh dear a rumour thread.... I hope BBO and Biffen shoot it down seeing they're the rumour police these days. Hate to think people only shoot down posts made by people they don't get along with....

    No co-incidence the Bombers lost by 79 points to Collingwood. He has lost the players also.

    Maybe he's our next coach?

    (joke) ;) ;)

    I was going to suggest midfield coach, but I lost my nerve :)

    Fair point. Just alot of smoke on this one. I cant see Hird surviving should Essendon lose premiership points.

    Did you expect him to say something to the contrary??

    No but he was very strong in his way he said it.

    I highly doubt Hird will stand down.

    He will make the AFL sack him.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
