The new Essendon Coach [spec]

He did, but the AwFuL told his wife (EFC) a heap of lies and caused her to divorce him.

You’re comparing Fagan; who was an assistant coach as well as GM of footy at Melbourne before becoming the Head of Coaching and Development and GM of footy at Hawthorn; who won 4 premierships under his stewardship; to James Hird’s AFL coaching career! That is quite some reach you’ve got there.

Horse is the answer

The young core of players and their parents will have to be on board with whoever gets the job. Some might not like the idea of Hirdy returning.

The club has been through this with player parents and they had no issues with Hird and understood his very limited role in the supplements saga. The only exception is the obviously fictitious ‘Sarah’ who rang in on Eddie’s morning radio show. So what about current player parents. They should be comforted by the fact that Hird will surely apply substantially greater workplace care now than his slip ups in the past. Lightning will not strike twice

Horse had Academy advantage

Voss was better second time around. Brad didn’t get experience at another club prior to his second stint.

It’s basically the only thing keeping us relevant

I don’t think we can compare % wins by Horse v Hird. One had a settled team, actually a premiership team handed to him, great culture, excellent assistance from the AFL with Buddy, great Academy picks, the other had none of these. He inherited a ■■■■ show, and it became a bigger ■■■■ show. While Hird could have done better, its not as clear cut as % wins.

I’m surprised Paul Little hasn’t put up a $$$ reward relating to finding the real “Sarah”. Imagine if the person is found to be an AFL paid person. The whole house of cards would come tumbling down.

How can you find what doesn’t exist? IE how would you even go about trying to find the person who made the call

I said in the other thread there’s every chance Kelly could bring Bartel and McCartney with him as well if given the gig. I wouldn’t mind if he could get Scarlett to come too, our key defenders have gone backwards at a rate of knots under Hurley.
