Coach James Hird - is it time to give him a second chance at coaching an AFL club? Gil says yes!

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Except you’re stymying the ability of your club to move forward by having no other candidates get involved because you’re looking for the fairy tale.

Look at Collingwood after cutting the Buckley cord, and he didn’t cheat.

Iv'e said on here mutliple times i don't want Hird back im speaking more broadbly on how he's previced

 

[Milanista28]

Meryl Streep would play Kevin Sheedy

She'd win awards doing it!

 

[Sky]

Honestly I have no respect for turncoats but any Essendon fans who turn away from their club if they actually appointed Hird again are fine by me

 

[deck]

GWS had no issues in getting Hird at the club.

Everyone has moved on expect for big footy it seems

As senior coach? He was hired in a part time development role. And as I said most clubs would have a hard sell to members. GWS's board answers to no one but themselves.

 

[BigPond101]

Who is going to play Brendan Goddard?

Remember Todd from Breaking Bad

 

[SplintWhisky]

Of course Mark Robinson broke this..

Ohh man does anyone have that article he got slammed for? It was back in like 14 and he wrote an article so positive of Hird all the media thought James actually wrote it.

I wouldn't put it beyond her...

This is getting good. Robbo on 360 begging the Essendon Board to get rid of the selection panel and to just appoint Hird now.

Inject it right into my veins.

Robbo is drunk

 

[Pistol Night]

Robbo is drunk

I’d be more surprised if he wasn’t

 

[freddy mercury]

Please give him the job and then it'll properly end the club. Who gives a shit anyway, they've settle that mediocrity is okay and comes second whilst making millions is first priority.

 

[The 747]

If he doesn't get the job now there's always 2024.

Yep, can just sit on the outer and wait for the knife to hit the other bloke.

 

[Boxhead_31]

All the scared posters here lol, after he wins us our 17th flag he'll be played by Matthew McConaughey in the motion picture.

Yep a coach with a 48% win percentage has got the world shaking in their boots

 

[Falcon27]

Be interested to see what Bombers fans think about all this.

Worried. How could a selection panel possibly recommend him ahead of someone better qualified like Pyke.

 

[sauce_head]

She'd win awards doing it!

Best actress for her portrayal of the Mad Parrot.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Yze and Lade still applied

He said senior candidates

 

[Interstater]

Sounds like the Bombers are stuck between a Pyke and a Hird place.

Honest question, what has he done to deserve a second chance other than a 10 week stint as an assistant coach at GWS?

In order to get a second chance should he not go away and improve his football coaching ability like Ratten or Voss?

Hird: "Well, for starters, I'd never lead my players into a scandal like that camp thing Pyke organised..."

Wondering who the 4th is?

He was quite impressive in how he handled the questions Robbo and Gerrad asked about the process happy to have him on the panel.
