The gift that keeps on giving! I don’t get it, he’s made millions from property, his coaching, why on earth would he be that greedy and stupid?

Well, there seem to be health issues involved:

[Also see the whole of that thread,

with which this thread should probably be merged.]

Had questions about this bloke's erratic behaviour for years.

Can't believe how ignorant Robinson appears in his laughable op-ed for the Hun:

"Some nights, smoke in hand, he would be jovial and joking, half crazy with enthusiasm, and that was Bomber at his best. Other nights, and they ­became frequent, he would be angry and disillusioned, crazy with rage."

There was a reason he was like that Robbo. Time you opened your eyes to the reality that was unfolding before you.

Always heard unsavoury rumours about him over the years, but seems his life has spiralled out of control since his Essendon departure.

Random thought:
If history had been a little different, one could imagine our current president having parachuted him into our head coach position.

This caught my eye:
"President David Evans quit after he had a physical breakdown in the Essendon dressing room after a night match against Hawthorn in July, 2013."

I wonder what that means? Evans collapsed??
