So who are the 'A' team. To my knowledge he hasn't named anyone, surely Robbo and his mates could follow up with a question and follow up with the A team to see if they were ever a realistic chance to be at EFC or just another "Truth".

 
 

I have two questions for James. 

How have you managed to keep your hair so gorgeous throughout the entire crisis ??

When is Tanya going to dump your arze ?

Other way round? Don't be surprised if he ends up "leavin' on a jet plane.Don't know when I'll be back again".  Au revoir.

Rumor was thats already happened?????

 

The AFL should strip him of his Hall of Fame status.  

Maybe give him a new honour:  Hall of Infamy!! :o

Complete with a recording on loop of Roosevelt saying 'Essendon Coach, James Hird, a name which will live in infamy'

Clever. ta

Perhaps in exile Hird can take a role in North Korea as Integrity & Information Minister, they could rename the Kim Dynasty to the Jim Dynasty and he could carry on his good work there.

Usurped by Tracy? 

 

Doesn't she have form?

Yes.

Is that still on?

Tracy appears to have taken over Tania's role as head cheerleader for TEAM HIRD. BTW anyone seen Tania's mug on the big screen recently?

It would be a diabolical slap in the face to Essendon stalwarts/greats (David Evans, Tim Watson, Jobe Watson, Bomber Thompson et al) if Tanner repeats his invitation to Hird to come back into the fold.

Dammit,  I hope he does!

A role for Tania during the interview could be to hold up enlarged copies of her notes for James to read at the appropriate moments. She has copious notes don't forget. 

 

 he's a serial pest, jack, but i prefer this other rendition of his

 

 

Fcuk that must be Alan from Greenvale who has rung up SEN so often to just talk absolute rubbish on air...!!

 

I have not read it ( I have refuse to now listen or read anything he puts out ) so I guess asking the next question then makes me a hypocrite but does he mention anything about "the Records"

"Records??  Do you mean the Footy Record?  I have lots of those at home. I have kept and framed every on that has my photo on the cover.  Keep them next to the dressing room suite mirror.  But how could they help redress this diabolical injustice?"

Actually im a little surprised we haven't seen the media cap outside his house. But my god he is blaming others again. Wonder what McCartney will have to say and Im sure Mark Thompson will no doubt fire back. 

High performance was the mantra from top to bottom with then club president David Evans driving us to find the best ways to do everything we did," Hird wrote.

"It would become clear our football team team was uncompetitive in the "strength stakes". 

"Our thinking was heavily influenced in 2011 by two-time premiership coach Mark Thompson, who was my senior mentor, and Brendan McCartney, my senior assistant coach."

OMG he just cannot see it.  Everybody else is to blame and absolutely nothing to do with him, the one who said early on as I recall, that he would take full responsibility.   

Pathologically deluded.

Imagine what is on those other tapped calls between friends other than "the good stuff"

you mean those idiot sheets, I think they're called?

Yes Dee L, that's what I meant. Idiot sheets. We don't think James is the sharpest tool in the shed so it's an eerily appropriate name.

ssshh, he thinks he is... so does his Tinia.  thinks the world of him.  sticks to him like another layer.

 

problem with 'james h' is,  he thinks everyone else are idiots,  who'll just follow & believe him.

  • 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.
