The setting is perfect for Hird.
The hawthorn distraction.
In his mind “it’s not as bad as clarko and Fagan”
The sycophants chanting his name
A board so deluded they are frothing at the mouth.
Perfect. Just perfect.

James Hird has a 41-1-42 win/loss record as a coach for a 49 % record. At the time they appointed him almost everyone said "it's too early, he doesn't have enough experience, he should work as an assistant coach for a few years."
Essendon went ahead and appointed him anyway.
What's so special about his record that has that has Essendon so desperate to appoint him? I could understand if he was Norm Smith or Alan Jeans but let's face it, he's not and he never will be.
They are like a pack of spoiled kids who have been told to they can't have anymore red cordial. The problem is Sheedy should be the wise head advising caution but he's had more red cordial than anyone else
Brad Scott tipped for Essendon coaching roll
Just on Essendon, Hunter has always had strong ties with the club. Is there anything they have that could be appealing for us? Does Aaron Francis have any appeal? Would you be satisfied with a 2nd -3rd round pick plus some extra salary cap room?
My mate, who is keen for Hird to come back, said it's "scary" that Scott could get the job. Scarier than Hird?!?!
Scott has a 106-105 win-loss record, including 4 finals series and 2 prelim final losses. Most of it with an over-achieving list.
If I was a Bombers fan, there are definitely worse options.
As an unabashed Essendon loather, I will be very deflated if they don’t give the job to Hird. Watching that train wreck would have been so satisfying.
Looks like it's Scott
