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.

    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'

    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.

    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.

    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"

    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.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
