I like Bomber Thompson - I always look forward to his segment on 360.

That said, I can't stand James Hird. Or Essendon.

I continue to loathe Carlton more. They're extremely loathe-able as a club.

    You're on the right track, Ron.

    If you keep up the good work, you'll be loathing 17 clubs like the rest of us.

    Ironic that the Bombers' James Hird Academy promotes development of Ess father/son prospects, given his propensity to do a 'Barnaby'

    What, Hird botched water allocation in the Murray Darling basin too?!?

    There is no end to his wilfulness and degeneracy.

    For what this is worth. I've recently returned from a trip to the Hilltops/Young/Mudgee wine producing areas of NSW. 

    In Mudgee I stayed at a Motel run by an ex WA dude and we had a conversation about AFL footy. ( AFL footy is not big in Mudgee.)

    It turned out he is the brother of a certain West Coast Eagle backman who played in the Worsfold era. One of the things he said was that the Whoosh was also called the Chemist. Yes, that was/is his profession.

    He then said West Coast players were using drugs in that era. Not all of them, just most of them. He claims it was a well-known 'fact'.

    He mentioned the usual suspects, the dead one and those still alive, including a surfing type who played a few games for the Demons in 1996.

    He also said drugs were and are rife in the AFL. He said Essendon's biggest problem was they were caught.

    For what it's worth...

    Apparently they have also offered jobs to Barnaby Joyce & Bronwyn Bishop to be in charge of political correctness and travel arrangements.  Bomber Thompson now in charge of recruiting his first recruit is Stephen Dank, Chopper Reid was offerd a job but failed to attend the interview, Pol Pot and Adolf Hitler are expected to sign on when contracts can be exchanged. "We are looking for leaders in their field and no stone will be unturned, Attila the Hun and Idi Amin are also in our sights." Bomber said.  -FMD

    Hird and Adolf to collaborate on something similar to The Hanger. Maybe call it The Chamber.

    I hope they have strict protocols on handing out melatonin, would be stiff for Hirdy to have it happen again.

    God it still cracks me up when I read bummer fans on social media still in denial that turdy did anything wrong and it was all the AFL and they know he was innocent. 

    I really don't care about it now but Id rather see him do a footy manager position than coach. Plus I reckon it would hurt the bummers fans to see him at Freo. Just keep him away from the medicine cabinet.

    Might be the opposite Sue, after a few years back in football, it will prove he never really did anything wrong. Good work AFL, would have been life in any other sport.

    Well, it's out of their hands.

    Freo called up and asked very politely if Tirdy could come and play with them.

    And the AFL looked up his record and discovered that after recklessly dumping the AFL into its biggest scandal in 100 years, he did some coaching for a prominent footy club, AND last year he presented the Norm Smith medal!

    Fully rehabilitated! Back to normal!

    It would be wrong for the AFL to continue to victimise Tird given that some other organisation saw fit to grant him those second and third chances.

    Hey, over here in Adelaide, there are two clubs that drive you absolutely sick. Port and the Crows. No TV coverage for MFC, no articles in the daily paper, no radio commentary, no nuffin. Loathsome behaviours all of the time from supporters with at least 20 commentators counting every breath of every player in these two sides. They even think that they got a bargain with Watts, Toumpas and the profits from the Lever deal. Yep, hate Essendrug and Carlscum, but these two in proximity are unbearable.

    But they live in Adelaide, so you have to cop that. I live in MELBOURNE and have to listen to [censored] about 7 other clubs (8 including Jeelong) that i have no interest in....

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
