Rumor:Hird into Tennis not AFL

[Roo Ted]

Please give this topic a rest, he wants to make a squillion with his connections with Tennis. He is not stupid and knows the Bummers are a lost cause, so why waste his time?

I remember reading he wanted to make a Tennis World Cup.
And to answer your question - Who knows what goes on in the guys head. Maybe he received a knock one day.

People got their wires crossed yesterday... the money was supposed to go on Hird to be the next coach of Lleyton Hewitt.

you really think a Tennis World Cup over 7 or 14 days has a place on their calendar? They are full up. Slams, Masters, then a myriad of ATP sanctioned tourneys. Davis and Fed Cup. They have a glorified appearance match tourney in the Hopman Cup. I do not see room in the calendar, but then again, the ATP bought out McNamee's equity in Hopman Cup. Tennis World Cup would not get the big hitters just like Hopman Cup usually can't afford them and gets the nobodies.
