    Does Hird actually do anything on game day, I have never seen him on the phone or anything, just sitting there looking useless.

          At least Macca left us with a decent young list.

            You've made this observation a few times. What exactly do you want coaches to do when the camera scans on them?

              Cooney might be suspended for a few weeks with high bump. Can anyone recall how long he signed for?

                  I don't.

                  From all reports, he loves the folding stuff. Why would he give up an extra couple'a hundred grand?
                  Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                    I assume scream incoherently and then abuse the players between breaks. My understanding is that's good match day coaching.

                      Cooney had 4 shots on goal today for 4 out on the fulls. That's gotta be some kind of record (maybe the anti-dead eye dicko).

                      Maybe he's looking for someone to make the decision for him (and get paid out).

                      Either way, I'll remember him for when his body was right and he was a legitimate Brownlow quality player for us.

                        Just observing what Ledge said about Hird and how Macca was the same. You are the ones reading more into it.
