Live Event James Hird live in concert (Interview now in OP)

[se17enteen]

I honestly believe this interview was a win for James Hird.

Tracey Holmes came out of this looking more foolish than him, made Hird look like a pro who was in control the whole time.

Good choice of interviewer by Hird, like Mayweather dodging all the good fighters. Maybe Hird will do a one on one with Caroline Wilson when she's 100 years old and can't speak.

Well played James Hird.

 

[manboob]

The best/worst part about all this is that quite a few in the media were already questioning Tracey's ability to be impartial and sure enough many lined up behind her. Well she ****ing blew that to smithereens

 

[Quinz]

That was superb. From the ethics centre background to the softball questions and evasive answers, one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Evelyn Waugh himself could not create a more surreal lampoon of journalism.

 

[Ron The Bear]

The one thing I got from the interview is that, although they may be only average AFL footballers, these 34 Essendon players are abnormally great men, perhaps even approaching the greatness of James Hird himself. Essendon really hit the jackpot with these guys. All they need do to enshrine that greatness in perpetuity is not hold Hird responsible for their plight.

 

[T Factor]

So, apparently he didn't know what a peptide was but he knew 12 other clubs were doping...

Wait. So, 12 other clubs were doping but Essendon weren't... ah huh...

yeah with Peptypes...I heard it directly from James

 

[Crankyhawk]

The latter. Their attendance is purely to donate $33 per head to the James Hird holiday fund.

$33 X 40 people = $1320 only. Maybe holiday to Tasmania...

No.

 

[JackOutback]

The hilarious thing is, this is all part of his attempts to salvage his brand, and it has done the complete opposite.

 

[ScreenDoorSlams]

Next week at the Ethics Center. Tracey Holmes to be interviewed by Les Murray.

I was what great men do...lift up the ordinary people around them, what a remarkable person he is, ask Tracy.

 

[CotchNCo]

The only thing I've learnt tonight is that Hird has the beadiest eyes in sport.

About even with the prosecutor in Making a Murderer.

 

[SBYM]

Someone please post Dee Dee Dunleavy's tweet. This is totally stacks on from the entire media. Awesome.

This one?

 

[TheInjuryFactory]

Reckon Albert has got exactly what he wanted out of it. News headlines for 7 news "Hird admits guilt"

Channel 7 pls

peppy la pew

 

[peppy la pew]

I'm confused how he can guarantee the players didn't take banned drugs but doesn't know what they took

WTF that makes no sense what so ever

Thats been the rhetoric from day 1

It's complete bullshit

 

[buttsauce]

Would love to hear another interview with the weapon. But Essendon has already bought his silence. Why is his law suit payout never mentioned anywhere?

 

[believe_it]

yeah with Peptypes...I heard it directly from James

Yeh that was obviously complete BS. A lame attempt at feigning ignorance.

 

[Xtreme]

A running bus update.

People responsible so far-
- the Essendon football club
- the club doctor Bruce Reid for not making the program so safe or stopping Lovett Murray form taking his injection and for approving AOD9604.
- the AFL for denying procedural fairness and making it public and interfering with the ASADA investigation.
- Ian Robson for designing the club structure, for not acting on the letter Bruce Reid wrote and for not firing Dank and Robinson.
- Paul Hamilton for reporting to Ian Robson
- Dean Robinson and Stephen Dank for not always following the protocols that James ensured were put in place.
- Someone for not putting the supporting documentation on the firms.
- Liz Lucan for ridiculously saying that Hird should take responsibility (seriously what an absurd idea)
- Gil McLaughlin for preventing him from lying during the press conference
- David Evans for betraying Hird.

He needs to just grow a pair (of balls not ears!) and admit he stuffed up by trying to play catch up with the better teams of the competition.

 

[Jack Gun Cyril Stun]

You are effin kidding? Rofl

 

[gutsroy]

Am assuming someone had already posted, but in case not, gold from Ted Richards...

 

[mxett]

What do essendon supporters actually think of him , are they still in the #standbyhird cult?

he made some big mistakes, took on way too much as a new coach, but never intended for the players to be doped.

 

[David the Cat]

I need a Panadol after that......

Where do I sign?

[beta_condition]

So by Hird he had no involvement at all in what drugs were injected, so his view on the events are only an opinion with the same validation as John Doe?
