appointed as assistant coach at the Western Bulldogs, out of the running for Essendon job
28/9 Brad Scott to be interviewed on Thursday
29/9

 

[Pickup]

HIRD, SOLLY & MCVEIGH.
NO TO ROSS AND PYKE ,BEEN TRIED.

 

[Nifft]

Yes Dimma, quit your stable well run club for a club that got rid of you to overpay others when they couldn’t manage their cap, then didn’t believe your assessment of their list or give you a chance to present for your dream job after a technical failure.

Come home Dimma, come home to the family that has repeatedly mistreated you and your friends.

You know it'd be funny if he did come back, and then first thing he did was hire Rutten as senior assistant.

 

[Pweter]

HIRD, SOLLY & MCVEIGH.
NO TO ROSS AND PYKE ,BEEN TRIED.

Has Hird been tried?

 

[boncer34]

Has Hird been tried?

And convicted

 

[Doss]

HIRD, SOLLY & MCVEIGH.
NO TO ROSS AND PYKE ,BEEN TRIED.

BEEN THERE DONE THAT

Come home Dimma, come home to the family that has repeatedly mistreated you and your friends.

Sometimes I can't tell if I hate this club, or hate that I love this club.

 

[The Donners]

Not taking aim at anyone but this thread is a bit of a joke. Of the 59 votes for Hird 3 are Essendon posters and 1 I'm yet to determine if they're legit Essendon posters. Those 3 Essendon voters (and the 1 who is TDB) need to get off the ****ing drugs (a little ironic)!

There are more than 3, probably about a dozen, though admittedly plenty of oppo posters. But that's why the votes are visible

When we get a clear idea of who has been shortlisted then we will update the poll I guess.

 

[Foxx]

Why would Hardwick want to come to the same place who rejected him as coach the first time!?

 

[jmoo wan]

Why would Hardwick want to come to the same place who rejected him as coach the first time!?

because we've improved so much as an organisation since then

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

Can't see Dimma improving on the powerpoint. Want someone with at least intermediate level skills

 

[Foxx]

We rejected him for Mathew Knights too lol. Our board has gone from strength to strength.

 

[ghostdog]

HIRD, SOLLY & MCVEIGH.
NO TO ROSS AND PYKE ,BEEN TRIED.

Yeah I don't recall Hird being tried.

 

[Lore]

 

[jmoo wan]

well at his point, applications aren't open Donald.

 

[bennyg12]

Surely we name a coach before trade week

 

[Lord Nicholson]

Why would Hardwick want to come to the same place who rejected him as coach the first time!?

Why would David Parkin want to coach a club that had already sacked him?

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

Shit there goes the power stance.

 

[Eleven 38]

If anyone has been slaughtered in the media as much as us in the last month its him, its not really surprising he's saying no to that sort of question.

Media would follow saying "Don Pyke wants to coach essendon even after the camp blah blah blah."

 

[Mr Mojo Risin]

Why would David Parkin want to coach a club that had already sacked him?

Because Parkin didn’t have a senior coaching job at the time of going back to Carlton?

 

[GoDons76!]

I haven’t looked at all posts, but I would be keen for a fresh start, Yze with Mark Williams to be his mentor. I know it’s a risk with an untried coach, but I think this could work!

 

[Mootsy]

Can't see Dimma improving on the powerpoint. Want someone with at least intermediate level skills

Dimma would projectile a CSV spreadsheet of perfect data using a hologram

NO,NO & NO.

 

[crackers65]

HIRD, SOLLY & MCVEIGH.
NO TO ROSS AND PYKE ,BEEN TRIED.

Hird’s already been tried and led this club to the greatest catastrophe in its history.
