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.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
