James Hird Sacked


Lucifers Hero

Recommended Posts

Chris, you always have good posts and never troll but that comment needs a bit more info :rolleyes:

Curiousty is greatly piqued!

I left a hint the other day in the Saga continues threat thread.

Trying to work out how to say it without actually saying it. Got the info from a mate and it is his mates job on the line if it is not meant to come out.

Barrett has the same relationship with the AFL that Robbo has with Hird, and it doesn't stop at providing information.

McDevitt from ASADA was angered by Hird’s repeated debasing of the joint ASADA and AFL investigation into the program that ran at Windy Hill in 2012.

He said the departed coach needed to accept responsibility.

“He has repeatedly referred to this as the ASADA scandal and did again today. Don’t blame ASADA for doing its job. Blame him and others for not doing theirs,” McDevitt said.

This is not the ASADA scandal. It is the Essendon scandal and will go down in history as such.”

McDevitt is a legend

Deluded to the end: HS byline "I'm a good coach and proud of my record".

On that basis he will surely recommend Neald to follow him.

And.....to my family etc I am truly sorry for (expecting from anyone other than psychopath 'what I have put you through') what you have had to endure.

No word of contrition - all said with absolute absence of insight, like the true psychopath he has shown himself to be

Had to laugh at Slobbo's article today where he said James was going to be sacked after the EFC B&F....

He and others from the club pilloried Caroline Wilson over her article that said the same thing....

Their head is so far up the club they can't see the sunshine....

Jake Niall's efforts in The Age are special;

"I've been able to come up with a full five players who are definitely good. If I put them in a row I can call them a 'spine'. Essendon are going to be great!"

For me, all his pathetic effort did was remind me of the desperate Carlton supporters a decade ago insisting that they had a spine ready to build a team around.

A spine that included Whitnall and Livingston, if I recall correctly.

Two, ah acquaintances of mine, both heavily involved in professional sport have had some interactions with the given subject!

According to them,( and they have had professional dealings and spoken to many famous sportsmen and women.)

Our friend, has got the greatest ego, by far, of any professional sportsman/women they had ever met!

Hypothetical:

A large European club, lets say Bayern Munich, decides it needs an edge on its competition.

The coach organises people to run the program.

Those people bring in all the drugs on the quiet and run them through a chemist so it looks legit.

They ask the players to sign consent forms.

The club has heaps of money so it can just lawyer up if anyone tries to investigate.

How do the lawmakers get around this?

To make the individual players responsible for what goes into their body.

Obviously the club and players should be punished in this scenario.

It is the exact reason the laws were written this way.

Essendon has obviously done exactly this and all and sundry should be given maximum penalties

James had the singular belief that he was right.

Very,very similar to Lance Armstrong.

Hubris.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
