Matthew Knights >>>>>>>>>>>%%>>> James Hird

[The Redemption]

Bud, I've answered this a few times. I never fell into line when he played (as in never warmed to him, just not my type of bloke), couldn't believe he didn't do an apprenticeship at another club let alone actually wanting him to be the actual coach.
I've also said coaching is so overrated it's not funny. If you don't have the cattle etc etc etc

The entire situation is odd. Dude that has no experience steps into coaching. Team does not improve.

 

[windyhill]

So your list is shite

Where did I say they were any good my 27 spoon buddy ?

 

[windyhill]

LOL... you're complaining about IV drips? You're an IV drip...

Ohh ****, stitch my sides up.

 

[Duritz]

Ohh ****, stitch my sides up.

Have you been injected in them too often and they require attention?

 

[windyhill]

Maybe the afl could help me if I kiss enough arse ?

 

[NorthernLights]

Hird is still yet to coach in more finals series than Knights.

Agreed

 

[Moo]

Irresponsibly take risks with your players, cost your club millions and run the clubs reputation into the shitter ....no worries #standbyhird

Lose a few games of footy and it's pitchforks.

Stand by Hird.

 

[windyhill]

Neesham ? Harvey ? Drum ?

Can't have all your coaches turn out to be successful as Voss.

 

[windyhill]

Can't have all your coaches turn out to be successful as Voss.

Or Swooper Northey

 

[royals1922]

Or Swooper Northey

Or rocket eade

 

[Duritz]

Voss has won more finals as coach than Hirdy, so yep.

 

[GuzzLG]

Voss has won more finals as coach than Hirdy, so yep.

And has left the club in a much more enviable position.

 

[DrEvil_]

And has left the club in a much more enviable position.

Truth

 

[T2B_]

Voss has won more finals as coach than Hirdy, so yep.

Ratten has won more finals as coach than Tirdy too

Shane Hird

I've thought about this question all day. Now my brain hurts and I've got a migraine.

I'm going to bed to dream of Hirdy hugging Essendon supporters...

 

[HoopsAhoy]

Knights = 1 VFL flag
Hird = Many lols flog

EFA

 

[Piston]

Mark Harvey would be all right - he's pretty thick so could communicate a consistent, simple message to kick the ****ing thing forward quickly.

I also feel like the OP is trying to make me cut. I have a sixth sense with these things.

 

[Smeg Head]

Ratten has won more finals as coach than Tirdy too

Cuddles Connolly won more too!

 

[go you pups]

Fred would've been divvied if some other flog started it

Do agree with the OP however

 

[windyhill]

Ratten has won more finals as coach than Tirdy too

Part of hawthorns coaching panel as well

 

[Cyclops]

Drug and ASADA issue aside, what would it take for Essendon to sack Hird? Like how bad would they have to be travelling to cut ties with the golden boy?

I have a feeling if he went 0-22 they'd still keep him on... which is fine with us as he is a bloody average coach and they are going nowhere while hes there.

They are a weird club though thats for sure.

Nah he's threatened to sue them if they ever sack him. Funnily enough most people think this is a joke.

 

[juice t]

Thanks oogac

Nah he's threatened to sue them if they ever sack him. Funnily enough most people think this is a joke.

He's probably threatened to spill the beans on the systematic drug cheating program at Essendon if he ever gets sacked.
