James Hird Sacked

Featured Replies

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

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

The contrast in todays 2 main papers is astounding

The Herald Sun employees should all be sent away on a one way ticket

It is nothing more than an Essendrug Fanzine

McDevitt and Co will strike the biggest blow


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....

 

Last night? Was this a special or something? I think I remember watching Footy Classified on Monday night.

yes it was a special episode for the Hird sacking


So Carro could gloat.

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.

I loved on 360 last night as Robbo was babbling crud, Whately was trying not to laugh at him, he had a ghost of a smile the whole time.

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!

So Carro could gloat.

and why not :)

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

What WADA fears is exactly what you have outlined and that is why they appealed the non-decision of the AFL tribunal.

"We didn't know"

"We lost the records"

"The sports scientist went rogue"

"The players were duped"

"Ha ha ha-- I mean, this has gone on long enough!!!"

James had the singular belief that he was right.

Very,very similar to Lance Armstrong.

Hubris.

Thank god he's gone.

Although it wouldn't surprise to see him on some footy panel.

Love for him to replace Lloyd on fc

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
