When Sherry has to pay Hirdy himself, he’ll soon get it…

 

[Shermanator]

We’ve got Clarko and this *club is still a basketcase..

What a time to be alive.

 

[The Warlord]

mate save the bollocks corporate speak for your mid-paying pseudo-job. what the hell are 'internals'???

You'll keep a civil tongue in your head when addressing me Essendon suppprter.

But as I am a better person than you, and have spent a lifetime tolerating the ignorance and rudeness of your kind, I shall grant you a moment of my time.

"Internals" is political/media speak for the internal politics of a situation - so in this case I don't think the whole blowing up the club was about actually getting Clarko, I think it was a power play by Sheedy to gain control and arseh*le Rutten and some of his board enemies.

He did this by encouraching Barham to go for Clarko, then voting against it.

So a dinosaur and a guy that knows nothing about coaching. Both hate *! Hahahaha

 

[Better Loosen Up]

Has anyone officially put their hand up to apply yet?

What’s the bet they accidentally picked up the phone to an unknown number and were sucked into helping too..

 

[see see]

I doubt there are two better examples of the concept of the useful idiot. They're perfectly credentialed to rubber stamp the appointment of Hird.

 

[DesertRoo]

In other words, they're perfectly credentialed to rubber stamp the appointment of Hird.

Give me $100k and I’ll write the most impressive Turd resume you’ve ever seen too..

 

[Shinboner1]

Looks like they've started the process to overhaul the club.

 

[Sillygit]

Robert Walls seen here at the coaching subcommittee

 

[FlyHigh18]

Kind of sad now, I was really hoping the likes of xavier, dodo and sheedy would continue the success of the past 20 years.

 

[Shermanator]

Has anyone officially put their hand up to apply yet?

 

[Gorman2Geister]

A week is a long time in football is a cliche not a metaphor.

 

[Supreme_Chancellor]

Looks like they've started the process to overhaul the club.

That's a lot of words to say "We've appointed Hird again".

 

[Massive Unit]

I hope they are stuck in purgatory for eternity.
Pack of scumbag campaigners!
I'll ease up on the sympathy now and go back to hating them

 

[numchuks]

So Robert Walls on the coaching panel ?

Same guy who made his players put on gloves and beat a rookie player to a bloodied pulp.

Just the kind of character you want leading a cultural change at a Basket case of a football club.
