Essendon

[Grantysghost]

but even juiced up they weren't that great. Were they???

Nope shizen.

[Dancin' Douggy]

My memory was that they all started doing soft tissue injuries.......despite the fact they WEREN'T juice up...... all their bodies started giving out.
His actual coaching record is 48.2% win/loss ratio.
Ladder Finishes.

Not really a glowing resume.

If he can bring back more of Hird's Secret Stuff I bet they can reach those heights again.

Your ego knows no bounds. Lucky you're funny.

Edit: and now I see I have deleted the part I was actually replying to. This is turning into a farce.

I compared the Kool aid drinking Essendon supporters wanting Hird back with the idiots in the Republican party who are looking to re-elect Trump, and was told I was being ridiculous. I'm sticking with it.

Some humans believe some stuff.

Not sure it makes you better or worse just is.

Some beliefs definitely make you worse.

Article tries it's best to downplay the situation

Hird last coached the Bombers in 2015 before departing the position

Well it depends on your beliefs.

Ours align.

They are actually going to do it, aren’t they?

Hope they do, and the joint just crumbles.

Sounds like a rational comparison to me.......In no rational world could anyone regard Hird as a fit and proper person to lead a football club.

What happens to all Essendon's best laid plans, if nobody bothers to apply. You can have all the best thought out selection criteria, and all best selection processes; but it all falls down if nobody wants the job.

I guess they will settle for the default option, James Hird.

That's the man.

I still think its long odds they appoint Hird - but if they appoint one of their own, they might make him part of the coaching group

Could they go for a Solomon, Hird and co mix with ___ as the senior man?

I always liked Phillips.

I really like Roarke but how long can his luck hold with us? If they offer him a couple of years he should take it.
