    Pretty decent right hand from an octogenarian too!

      Wow...I almost sympathize with Hird after reading that crap from Rebecca Wilson.

      Almost.
      I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

        The thing I don't get is the issues around Hird claiming not to have received the Doc's letter stating his concerns about being bypassed by Dank. Hird claims he and the Doc had a father son type relationship so why would Reid only converse by written correspondence? Didn't they talk to each other?

          Maybe Doc Reid knew Jimmy like only a father could and as a result made sure he wrote down anything that could be denied later on.
          They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

            It was all the players fault - so says Hird. (This really takes the cake. FMD)

            Former Essendon coach James Hird says the banned 34 players made a "mistake" in keeping the injecting program a secret from anti-doping testers, and insists there was no directive from the club to do so.

                  Fair effort kicking 34 blokes at the same time while they are down.

                    Rebecca Wilson trying very hard to blame the whole of Melbourne for the Essendon saga. Nice try.

                      Is that a record - throwing 34 people under a bus simultaneously?

                          Obviously you were entirely satisfied with the hard hitting (and completely predictable) interview?
                          Actually I wasn't, but your comments on the abc were rubbish

                                Here is a very interesting counter-argument to the CAS decision. It borrows heavily from a piece written by my Bomber-fanatic uncle Darren Moore, and references him at the end of it. I'm not sure whether I agree that an injustice has been done but it does make for interesting reading.
