His intro song is ‘Tainted love’ by soft cell.

[Wiseblood 24,637]

A match made in heaven.

[chook fowler 19,459]

Good. I never listen to it.

[CityDee 738]

Good luck Mr Hird its time to put the saga to rest . Never forget but move on champ. 

[Sir Why You Little 37,036]

Special Comments man

What else could he be....??

[Willmoy1947 4,088]

If he can get MFC over the line every week for his old mate Goody, he's my kind of guy........

[MT64 1,144]

Perfect match. I never listen to them anyway. Can never forgive him for what he did to the game.

Apparently MMM have Dank doing the medical reports from boundary side.

They tried to get Bomber Thompson, but he was too busy sniffing the boundary line

[hemingway 7,627]

The wish of the AFL and broadcasters to have Hird involved in the game is obvious to all. 

Yes, I know forgiveness is an important aspect of our lives and part of the moral underpinning of society, however it's a bit rich when you welcome back someone that has been involved in activity that has deliberately broken the governing rules of sport and its moral code. "Cheating" is as bad as it gets. 

However, if Wayne Carey can return to the game as a respected commentator after his activities, anything is possible.

I suppose, it just highlights that commercial interests are paramount. Sadly, it is also proof that the ethical and moral standards of footy and all sports have declined.   

[DubDee 25,863]

I actually can't believe he would want to step back into the game in any form.  if the media played it low key it would be one thing but they'll intro him as the superstar blah blah

he set the bombers back almost 10 years so ill always thank him for that

Glassing a woman in the face is a badge of honour in the AFL boys club.

It's a wee bit like having Lance Armstrong come and do international commentary on the  Le Tour de France.  not on.

... sorry about the pee in a bottle irony.

Good to know he will never be short of a quid. *retch*

[Ethan Tremblay 30,861]

You’d think he’d want to stay clear of all things AFL including the football media after what he went through (including an attempted suicide). Massive narcissist.

Leopard and Spots... Nuff said!

[monoccular 17,428]

I supppse the unrepentant narcissist sees it as one step on the way back to coaching. 

Yes, forgiveness is important but repentance must come first.  And I do t mean saying “sorry ..... that I was caught”.
