    Re: Round 14 Discussion

    Anyone out there questioning whether or not Hird can coach, didn't you see his patented "move Cale Hooker forward" move?

    It's so much fun seeing the emperor with no clothes on, now that Bomber Thompson is no longer there pulling all the coaching strings. Really hope that we can enjoy the train wreck for another 18 months at least.

      Me and a mate were joking that he only has two magnets (Hooker and Hurley) on his whiteboard.

          With two names on it. He also has a phone with no reception and a netbook with no internet access.
          They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

            Mr Moses,

            Indeed I was suitably unimpressed! What a debacle!!! An utterly disgraceful display from a team that really belongs in the bottom quartile. With Brad Scott no doubt imminently returning to the fold, it can only get worse. We may actually not have not hit our nadir.

                Do North have a similar site?

                  Re: Round 14 Discussion

                  Real worry is North's age demographic .
                  Reminds me of where the Dogs were after 2011.
                  Mind you losing Ward and Harbrow exhasabated ( spell check no love) the situation

                  What about this nonsense Robinson keeps churning out about everyone " hating Hird ", and just waiting for him to fail.
                  The facts are he recruited for a top 4 tilt, and he's failed miserably with his team being embarrassed!
                  So naturally the footy spotlight goes on the bloke who leads the club .
                  But then again Hird does like to runaway from responsibility !!

                      Real worry is North's lack of strategic intent and pedagogical nous. Extremely disappointing to see them so lamentable now, with the only light the train at the other end of the tunnel.

                        One issue at North is at the selection table. Scott is very reluctant to drop players with a reputation and bring in some young players.

                        Bevo is not afraid to send players back to the VFL no matter what they have done in the past.

                            Terry Wallace was saying that North should top up with more FAs and RFAs again at the end of the year and really give the flag another shot next year.

                              Hating Hird isn't a recent occurrence. I took a fairly strong dislike to him the first time I saw him.
