Our favorite player that is well known for shirt fronting James Hird has joined his mob.

Loved the Wrecker he was one of my all time favorite players!

All the best to him.

[What 18,810]

damn it

why would he join that scum?

[The Song Formerly Known As 6,479]

We got any decent ex-players working within our club, except for Viney?
Seems they all go elsewhere.

Good on him, he is still playing footy for Nth Ringwood Veterans in the Eastern Football Leauge a over 32's competition.

We beat them in the GF, he still hits hard though!!!

How old is his son?

Why do the indigenous boys go to fat once they finish their active sporting days, Rioli and Lionel Rose are two other examples.

Toned fit athletes one minute, over weight the next.

Mind you Long is an extreme porker.

I think finally we have "decent" people working for the club. Whether they are ex players or not is immaterial to me. I just want the best people.

I must walk to the beat of a different drum, I personally think it's important for an ex-player to do some coaching at a different club.

Sorry mate but his son is no older than 6.

No I haven't to be honest, living in Qld for the past 28 years hasn't helped I guess.

Perhaps you could give me several examples from 'half' the ex non-indigenous Demon players you refer to ?

[Guest]

hopefully he does this again while hes there

I could watch that all day.

[DistrACTION Jackson 8,669]

He would've got rubbed out for weeks on that hit now.

I'm curious how old is his son????

[monoccular 17,413]

Maybe they have employed him to take the cheating narcissist out permanently ??

[Little Goffy 14,462]

Ahhhhh HA HA HA HA!

Essendon are that desperate to find a way to quickly remove James Hird from the contest, of course they bring in Matthew Whelan.

The board is just playing the tape of the hit, over and over, and hoping now everything will be ok.

[Bitter but optimistic 22,220]

That hit, would have got "wheels" a serious holiday in today's world!

[dee-luded 2,959]

maybe they have plans for hird.... getting him to shift out! he's nestled in like a new york Rat,,,, so the pest controller removalist is moving in?
