Robson played it very smartly: "i should have known about the program but I didn't know anything about it, therefore I have to resign"  Least possible personal damage.

Yep couldn't wait to get out the door. 

Dangerous man. Will be glad when he leaves Victory...

    You look back and don't trust anything he's ever said

    I recall one memorable episode of ON THE COUCH when Matty Knights who was under the  pump at the time was being discussed and dear James in his soothing and caring tone was saying how he felt for him and in fact was going down to the club offering support and advice to help him through his difficulties. All said with the upmost expression of genuine sincerity and conviction.

    Of course we know what happened a couple of months later.

    Hird never missed an appointment on the "top rating" IQ sucking Footy Show either. In fact I hope they have something prepared for that other sanctimonious hypocritical parasite

    as well.

    Probably a 10 minute tribute to the 34 followed by 5 minutes about how good hird is

    Then the fossil will start up about how bad wada are and what a joke it is

    Why did Hird, Evans, Robson etc meet in July 2012 to get rid of Dank and Robinson? Hird says he was told they could not payout financially and also Dank and Robinson would take legal action.

    Hird says later they were shocked in February 2013 about concerns and investigations into EFC 

    Answer... They know protocols were missed in July 2012 and had suspicions about what was being injected. Reid alerted issues and they were ignored.  Not enough was done to ask questions, stop the process and PROTECT THE PLAYERS. Hird failed the players.

    wasn't that also about the time that essendon players started getting soft tissue injuries and losing games after such an dominant start to the season?

    The AFL is not the only Aust sport going through drug issues. The main players look to be using the same trick as Hird and Co, blame the authorities through the media. It's a beat up, it's not true, they are out to get us, we'll take it to a higher court.

    When asked about the effect on his family he mentioned his children and friends and ex friends etc  but forgot to mention his most loyal and devoted cheerleader wife who seems to have gone missing.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
