Footy Classified - tonight Hirdy is on, and also Brad. Interesting Viewing me thinks

I think it’s become quite obvious that the only way to break the curse and make us a good club who wins stuff again is to bring back James.

■■■■ might have scored an own goal. FC will probably rate really well after her “scoop”.

Guys recognise this for what it is … ■■■■ using her “go to” for when she has nothing …Blame James Hird. ■■■■ is till trying to get payback for the board unveilling Bev Knight as her mole !

Just imagine the movie arc.

Disgrace (drug saga)
Reappointment (return of the prodigal son)
Flag (redemption)
A happy ending.

Russell Crowe to portray Hirdy

who’s in charge of Strength, Conditioning & Sports Science?

The question that needs to be posed here is… does Russell possess the requisite level of luxuriance in his hair? I’m not convinced…

Matt McConaughey would be my choice, not sure if the budget would allow that though.

Except that ■■■■ is on 7 and Classified is on 9.

I think as Tim Watson said on SEN this morning, it’s just a convenient time to drop the story after a 91 point belting. There was a lot of opinion mixed in with the “news”. Very little of actual substance.

Just a hypothetical as it will never happen.

But Hird as an assistant instead of Stanton or Jacobs would be an instant improvement.

Brendan Goddard approves.

I think Russell is too weathered. It’s going to have to be Timothee Chalamet

Manufacturing tension for ratings.

You will know if he wants the job, he will start weekly coaching analysis sections calling out bad coaching and system at Essendon.

First choice: David Buttifiant
second choice: Gebhard Phil Gritsch
third choice: Vladimirshmodenko :slight_smile:

Praise The Lord, he’s coming back. Hallelujah.
