Let's discuss how much of a knob James Hird is

[DapperJong]

Because this is Australia, last time I checked it's a free country, and this is the Bay after all, where frank and honest discussions should take place.

So. Here's my take on it: he's a self righteous tossbag who thinks the world owes him greatness, who takes no responsibility for his faults and who has all the Essendank* sheep blindly following him. Then, when he gets his come uppance from the AFL and WADA, he cracks the shits (while Essendank* pay him a million dollars to holiday in france) and to assuage his enormous ego he has an affair (tell me I'm great please? I'm so brave after all) and fathers a child in France.

So brave.

Have at it Bay. This isn't communist Russia, this is a free country. Air your opinions.

Glad to see you're still upset

 

[dees arent rabble]

Calling him out....hahaha. Don't oversell yourself Mr Duritz on the internet. You're just a little weasel behind a keyboard who talks a big game on a shitty footy site.

Let me repeat, since your reading comprehension appears to be shit, I wanted Hird gone. I largely blame him for what happened.

And quit going on about being tonguing arseholes you strange man. Anyone would think you have a fetish or something.

Why do my you both get a room and tongue each other's ass

 

[A Cut Above]

What a surprise this thread has descended into personal insults.

The Bay used to be about humour.

I don't see you providing any.

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

Is this the right time for this?

 

[Duritz]

Glad to see you're still upset

Oh you ain't seen upset fella. This is sport.

 

[Duritz]

Is this the right time for this?

9:12pm?

 

[DapperJong]

Oh you ain't seen upset fella. This is sport.

Haven't seen originality either.

 

[Duritz]

If you want originals, read the Bible. There's nothing new under the sun, DapperJong.

He can't, North Korea doesn't have bibles.

LOL... and here you were "being polite"...

You are such a front running soft****. You start this thread heaping further abuse on someone who just tried to kill himself, and then also say you want Essendon fans to jump too, yet cry at a few harsh words and home truths.

You're a shit bloke, a dickhead and about half as funny as you think you are.

These retrospective claims are getting earlier all the time. Is there a prize for earliest ?

Good for you. Why don't you go back to laughing about this situation you piece of shit.

 

[sauce_head]

I have my popcorn and will presently permit this thread to continue.

Ha ha. Sounds like the whole of Bigfoot once the Hurd induced drug saga started four years ago!

Has it been confirmed he was sucicidal?

 

[the avoca drover]

The AFL industry is full of knobs, and Jimmy wouldn't even make my top ten.

Who do you reckon would be the biggest knob in the AFL?

 

[Hawk Dork]

Has it been confirmed he was sucicidal?

Are you suggesting it was a governance issue?

It's a toss of the coin there.

Oh hang on. Do you think I'm laughing at hird ? No no no. Don't give two shits about hird. I'm laughing at that ever loyal supporter base of his, screaming blue murder that the rest of the world aren't crying with you.

Is that why you banned me Joe ?

Sometimes borderline threads are left to stand because the OP broaches controversial issues that whilst delicate, are still worthy of discussion.

Other times borderline threads are left alone to allow the OP to continue to make a knob of himself - give him enough rope, etc. Some punters are the kings of self pwnage.

Which of these categories do you think this thread falls into?

I have numerous eliases VJ... but that one ain't one of 'em

Zero sympathy for his current plight, he brought it on himself. For those that cry "but what about his family ?" I ask what about the 34 players and their respective family members ? Their lives were altered forever as a result of Hird's need for "success". Success which he still failed to achieve which is laughable.... cheats to win and fails.

I hate the AFL X off season

You should watch the Western Bulldogs grand final more often, if that doesn't bring a smile to your face (while eagerly awaiting the new season to hurry up and start), then I don't know what else to suggest.

LOL... and your descension is complete!!!!!

You've gone from "being polite" to flat out abuse in about 2 hours... man, I might post more on the bay again if everyone is as easy as you, flogbucket.

The biggest knob when it comes to commentating the AFL.

If you think you understand my posting just because someone made you a mod, BigJoeD, then you're sorely mistaken.

I'll give you a hint - I have gotten exactly what I wanted out of this thread. Granted, I wanted more of it, I'm a bit greedy like that, but I've got it nonetheless.

 

[Sainter3and7]

Mental illness, and attempted suicide (particularly by males) happens too often. No matter what angle you take on Hird overall, the context of a suicide attempt means what you're going to say is going to touch a raw nerve for someone here.
Get help fellas, talk to someone, call Lifeline, don't... just don't.

I've never particularly liked Robert Walls, far too many deadshit comments over the years

Handy player though
