Any chance the player won’t show up against the Gold Coast outta respect for Hirdy?
Await the players response.
AFL360 will be interesting viewing tonight with BJ on…
The drama Queens are out in force today. The most important thing is for the club to retain players.
Before cancelling your membership, perhaps listen to Hirdhttp://www.essendonfc.com.au/video/2015-08-18/btv-hirds-message-to-members
I don’t need to be reminded what a great man is to decide on whether the club he laid down for is worth supporting.
It’s not.
Geez he sounds flat
I will write my thoughts soon...fair to say I am upset and if people only knew how much this is really going to hurt the players....incredibly sad. Wish I could say more
You could tell by the body language on the players they are hurting just as much!

Very annoyed at how things have unfolded.
Tonight’s show is one you’d want to be watching.

Have to say that was the worst part of the press conference.
Each of them walking in, their body language, the looks on their face, etc.
Never hire a club legend as coach. It always has to end

For those of us without Foxtel can we get some cliff notes?
Those thinking of tossing in their memberships…I’ve got a ■■■■■■ essendon tattoo. What am i going to do!
Wheres fog dog?
Gone very quiet.
It’s all a ■■■■■■ shame. I for one, will be renewing my membership, looking forward to next season and hoping to rekindle my love affair with the Essendon Football Club. Go bombers. No one person is bigger than our once great club.

I feel like I watched a completely different press conference to some.
- James Hird resigned
Yes he did, that is what he said however you need to read what he really said:
“On Monday night I agreed to tender my resignation to the Essendon Football Club,”
You see, he agreed to resign which means someone was asking him too. The club knew the fallout if they “sacked” Hird so they encouraged him to resign “in the interest of the club and players”.
- Little is also to resign
Yes that is what James said:
“It was the board’s opinion that the football club would never be free of the ASADA scandals while Paul and I were here.”
So James AND Paul were to resign but Paul is refusing to go UNTIL the Asaga crap is over. So Paul really isn’t resigning as the board wants, he is staying until he is good and ready to go.
I know which one of the two people above is the most honourable person.
And for those who said the board may not be involved, read James again.

Can people like you that wanted Hird out from the get go lay of a little before harping in with your not required 2 cents?

LOL.
I wasn’t far away from that myself.
Sozzles.
