Hird to coach Bombers in 2011

[ledge]

Sorry Topdog it was arrogance he stared him in the eye and pushed a bloke i rekon was over 70 out the way, the bloke had a walking stick. It was at halftime in a game he wasnt even playing in.
I also have other examples, the man is an arrogant stuck up prick.

[QUOTE=Topdog;183201]Hird is very different to Voss.

1) He can speak English clearly and is able to articulate what he wants.

2) He isn't an arrogant SOB.

Not saying he will be successful but just because Voss couldnt do it doesn't mean that Hird won't be able to. Needs good assistants and more importantly needs to actually listen to those assistants.[/QUOTE]

Agree.....its eems as though Essendon will splash the cash to get him the right people!

[ledge]

Amazes me he gets headcoach and assistants teach him , shouldnt it be other way round?
More like Malthouse/Buckley apprenticeship.

The Band is coming back together. Hird is going through the coaching appointment process! But then says he hasn't decided what process will take place when he's appointedAccording to Greg Denham (take that with a crap load of salt) that Bomber Thompson will be director of coaching.
Denham never get's it wrong

[LostDoggy]

Slaughtered more English than William Wallace!

And you say that like it's a bad thing!!

Press conference at 10am to confirm.

There's also talk on SEN that Bomber Thompson is a chance to join him as the director of coaching. Geelong wouldn't return their calls to confirm or deny, so it may have some legs.

[Desipura]

His blonde locks will go after a few years coaching, his Jodie Meares (ears) will stand out even more!

[chef]

Bomber Thompson is about to resign and join Hird at the bombers

This becomes a great day for the Essendon footy club

[Remi Moses]

Why wouldn't you just make Bomber coach and Hird his assistant??Unless they're going to defy the ageing process and take the field they're miles away from being a force.
Apparently Essendon Coterie groups and members make coaching appointments there

Interesting now, The Age are still reporting Thompson is going to Essendon.

But the HUN has changed their position to him staying at Geelong

Not sure if the update has changed for the Herald Sun, but it says he is definitely leaving Geelong, but there is decreasing speculation that he will be Director of Coaching at Essendon.

I saw that, they've changed their position 3 times today, pretty amateur over at the HUN these days.
