Just announced in the Supreme Court that Hird's costs order, to be paid to ASADA , of about $750k, have been paid by a white knight.

They weren't a LITTLE amount.

I wonder who the white knight could be.

Hird's claim against the Insurer has now been halved.

PS. Didn't see your post, Choke.

Redleg, I'm just trying to decode your little hint about the mystery benefactor. Surely "white knight" isn't code for Matthew Knights?

The term " white knight" came from the article.

The "bolded" description was my guess.

Hmm. I see nothing in bold. But LITTLE was capitalised. Is that a hint? All too subtle for me.

He might need the money. Some interesting rumours about the man and a supposed affair with a french girl that has delivered a bouncing baby this week.......

All according to my uber driver!

that would be priceless, if true. and dovetails into other rumours nicely.

Apparently a 'mystery benefactor' paid his $750,000 legal bill to ASADA:

 Mystery benefactor paid off James Hird's $750,000 legal debt

As others have said, Little doubt as to who may feel so generous towards the twerp.

Can't believe that Teflon coated pretty boy has avoided consequences of his actions once again. Wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't orchestrated by the AFL. It makes my blood boil that his narcissistic sense of entitlement has yet been further boosted. That money should go to a far more deserving cause.

Think I need a Valium.

By all accounts Little and Hird weren't very buddy, buddy towards the end and neither was the AFL with Hird. 

I tend to think a coterie member put up the $750k... you know one of the influential type that miraculously 'convinced' Charter, Alavi etc not to testify at the AFL Tribunal.  :ph34r:

If my hunch is right, never fear, they will likely call in the favour one of these day, then Hird will pay his dues. 

Nobody stumps up $750K cool ones for no reason ... we may not hear about it but whoever it was will want to collect from the teflon one:ph34r:

I don't understand this action. 

Stumping up money to protect originally, I understand.

But he lost. He is disgraced. There is no longer a benefit to your club.

Why waste the money?

Obviously not disgraced in the eyes of the benefactor. 

And maybe it wasn't for the benefit of the club...re read my post just before yours...its the most logical explanation...

Schools warned not to use banned players

"Victorian schools have been warned not to use the banned  34 Essendon players in any coaching or mentoring capacity even if it is unpaid work...The warning to schools came after one leading grammar school in Melbourne sought clarification from the AFL if they could use one of the 34 players in their football program".

WOW!  I'm gobsmacked!  What symbolic message is this so called 'leading' school giving students: its ok to cheat, its ok to take drugs!  Can they not see the danger?  I wonder what the parents think?

Crickey, I'm beginning to wonder if it is only DL's who keep fighting the good fight, for drug free sport!

  • PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.
