James Hird's Essendon story has yet to be told - The Age

[jenny61_99]

agree. The way Hawthorn supporters used to act about Buddy was frankly embarrassing hey

I'm not sure there's any footy follower that DOESN'T drool over that one special player. And I've no doubt that affection definitely clouds your ability to think logically about said player. Which player was/is it for you Lance?

Bloods culture made buddy do it

Just got a vision of Big Buddy as senior coach of the Hawkes in 2030. Cried laughing.

I'd forgotten that. Please please Hawkes - bring him back as a coach. Still crying laughing.

The thread heading for some reason reminds of a possible remake the old epic "The Greatest Story Ever Told" with James Hird playing the role of Max von Sydow.

My understanding is this post is close to the mark - It explains plenty.

If that was indeed the case, why haven't EFC gone after Dank?

Can't see it as being the case myself but each to their own.

I would have thought he'd be better cast playing Telly Savalas' role!

I can't wait for Mr. Hirds story to come out. I don't really have a investment in the outcome of the Tribunal because of the following reasons.

1. Numerous senior clubs management replaced.
2. Many millions spent on legal matters without success.
3. Suspended from a final series.
4. International and national embarrassment.
5. EFC PR silliness and spin to the determent of the club.
6. B&F night debacle.
7. Scorn and ridicule from numerous areas.
8. $2mil fine.
9. $2mil worth of weapons!

The list goes on, so who really does have the emotional investment in the Tribunal? Not the 17 other clubs or their supporters, but the campaigner's and foamers from the otherside. So yeah the tribunal is just a sideshow to the whole saga. Wake up and smell the roses EFC, it's not about us, we had and have no control, that's your bag to carry.

The pride you collective have must be immense! Hird owes it to the club and supports on who this situation got so bad, I hope it's acceptable given the cost so far!
