hey. Let them burn. But Mrs H. is a lawyer. She too would know the consequences surely.

WJ or Redleg why would the wife take this course. Surely it will put her cred at risk to?

....as it could be the last for some.

The age poll

should essendope sack hird - Yes 82%, No 18% .........9500 respondents so far

looks like james has lost the left

yeah but i voted no - they deserve him

heard some details on radio

claims all players knew exactly what they were receiving

claims he has full records of all "supplements" given or injected

claims club also has full records

Who claims these things?

Remember this is not about James:

"As I said, this is me wanting to say something, this actually has nothing to do with him."

So do we really care what someones wife overheard when their husband was talking on the phone about what someone else said? This is hearsay, in fact double hearsay.

Hearsay. "unverified, unofficial information gained or acquired from another and not part of one's direct knowledge"

 

Why would Ms Hird do what she did now? The story of Samson bringing down the temple on himself and the Philistines springs to mind.

The right and most of the middle.

Sacking James Hird would be outrageous says QC

Burnside now hopping into it.

Ho, ho! He can probably see that EFC will at the least cut the funding to the Hird camp and there goes his 'Golden Goose'.

Also this: And Im sure that Essendon and Paul Little are much more intelligent than to do something like that { sack Hird} because that would raise pretty obvious employment issues, apart from anything else." Rather ominous...see my earlier post on contract cancellation payouts!. As I said those Hird's are very cunning!


I for one do not care if Andrew D warned the EFC, providing he had not heard it was EFC from ASADA.

I do not care if the AFL act as bullies to protect the image/brand of the AFL

And I couldn't care less about the whingeing Hirds and their tarnished reputations. (self harm)

I do care about the players and workplace safety. I care about the health of the players. I care about the game, MFC our players and supporters.

I think we brought the game into disrepute and copped our medicine. We were not the only ones but we have copped our whack and we move on.

Essendon.................what a mess. Can EFC just sack Hird, ASADA penalise the players and then we can get on with the competition. I do not want another season wrecked by the Essendon Drug Fiasco.

I really have no time for this shyster...such a hypocrite and self righteous one at that.

Gosh one has to be careful what one posts. I am in no way falling for the Hird propaganda. I was responding to another post in saying "it must have been well known in AFL circles" ie. it was true even if there was no other evidence that you have listed to suggest it.

I don't see AD as the villain. Though I think he would have been wise to advise all clubs that ASADA was about to drop a bombshell to completly protect his bum from any accusations such as have been made by Hird. I thought it was clear from my posts that he is being crucified by Essendone despite his trying to protect them.

Sorry if I misunderstood sue.

I just get a little [censored] of with the Hird camp trying to paint everyone else as the villains when they the root cause of the problems.

I had a look over at Bomberblitz for the first time in ages and I can't find a thread where they discuss all this. Do I need a trip to the optometrist or have they banned discussion on the topic?

Didn't they previously implement some closed part to the board where you could only see the discussions if you were approved for viewing. ie No visitors allowed in for a laugh.

This is the last line from that story

"But the simple fact is the agreement simply prevents him from saying anything against the AFL.

Says it all for me JH cannot say anything so he uses TH and then if the EFC try and sack him he wheels in Mr. Burnside.

Hmm why do I feel angry and frustrated with this mob.

That is an interesting view of free speech.

I think that is the ostrich effect. or The three wise monkeys. or man are they deluded!

 

Money is understandably very important to the Hirds. It is all they have left to protect.

EFC squibbed it. Just reported on SEN that Hird is safe...Booooooooooo!

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • 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.
