Yeah that Danny C... the same bloke who took his whack and is no longer at the club. I dont think Danny had sold his story or sued the club for unfair dismissal...

Ummmmm because Hird and the club respected the process... get Dank, Robinson and Charters were not restricted by the club or AFL. Robinson also spoke out for cash. He has also received a massive payout from the AFL and ESS. So here is a bloke who is happy to make $$$ off the back of loss by all other parties in the sad affair. Quality individual we have there.... then again probably what you would expect from a bloke who was happy to inject players, support staff and his own family with suppliments! Oh and then of course lets not forget selling CJC to AFL footballers and instructing them on how to administer.

Ummm, change that name to Hird and the description fits exactly the same, weird hey?
 
Dean's linkedin profile is a classic.... didnt KPMG do their due diligence. Apparently its ok for Manly, Geel, the AFL, GCS and KPMG to hire this guy but Essendon get slapped for hiring a guy without the relevant background checks.
 
Any news this morning that Dank is suing Hird? Or retaliating with his own tell all interview with Large Fries?

Robinson asking for more money now he has been disparaged by an ex-EFC employee? as I'm pretty sure both him and EFC would have had no disparagement clauses in their settlement? Or will he retaliate with another Darcy special!

I guess by now it was always going to be a slim chance that Hird would actually have a bomb to drop. His article today seems and exercise in passing the buck and the most notable thing about it is the absence of any mention of Shane Carter. Be interesting to see if he turns up in Part 2.

I'm not a betting guy, but if I was I'd be putting my house on him not even mentioning Charter.

He has been very free with his threats. It will be interesting to see if he takes aim at Hird now that Hird has claimed he failed to follow instruction

C'mon mixxy, you can't be seriously comparing your work with the football department of an AFL club.

he was never under Hird. Why would you make the sports science department responsible to the coach??

Except, again, both parties at the CAS agreed the fact that Robinson reported to Hamilton and Hird. Or are barristers for the players lying?

In fact, Dean Robinson ended up under an assistant coach:

THE significant stoush between James Hird and Mark Thompson late last year came after a re-classification of their roles at Essendon.

The pair disagreed about the future of high performance manager Dean Robinson, with Thompson keen to retain him and Hird intent on having the position reviewed.

Thompson won the argument because under the new arrangement Robinson came under Thompson's jurisdiction.

I suppose, if it suited your agenda, you could say that he went from Hamilton to an assistant coach (Thompson). But that would be a bit of a stretch, and a bit transparent.

He went from under Hird to Bomber. Hard not to conclude that.

It never says he went from Hird to Thompson though.
 
I love the picture:

Are the watering eyes for the players whose careers he has destroyed or for himself now that he's seen as a psychopath (by most)?

Plenty of reasons that the club could stand him down. He had already have his power removed at the end of 2012. Plenty of dodgy actions associate this bloke... but the AFL moved too quickly, demanded he be removed and then just needed it to go away as it was a case they didnt need at that time.

Dank was one of his direct reports... that is probably enough it itself.

Administering drugs to employees onsite is probably another

A terrible year of injuries would be enough in itself.

Lol, didn't Hird get some injections on site?
