a real possibility of a joke...
imagine if he didnt get it...and they chose someone ahead of hird as well
"experienced coach" that doesnt have any experience in the last 7 years. may as well bring in sheedy again. |

I doubt this will happen.
He has spent this year back in the system at GWS after being out for what 5-6 years? I am sure there would be more credentialed candidates TBH.
I have no issue with him returning to coaching in whatever capacity. He has served his suspension.
However, I just think it would be unconceivable that Robert Walls & Jordan Lewis, unless overruled by the other 4 in that sub-committee, would choose Hird as the best candidate.
And if they do, ha good-luck _________________ Buzz

Essendon could have beaten us twice this season so Scott certainly has some talent to work with.
Most likely he'll make them a more hardened and consistent group, lead them finally to a finals win and sell hope.
However.
To lead them to a flag he'll have to defy the history of the VFL/AFL competition and become the first and only senior coach to win his maiden Premiership outside their first 9 seasons at the helm. As it is only one in Malthouse ever took until their 9th year.
I don't like his chances and that makes me very happy with this appointment.
May their Premiership drought long continue! _________________ He's mad. He's bad. He's MaynHARD! |

Sheedy voted for Hird to return, but was overruled by the other six board members _________________ | 1902 | 1903 | 1910 | 1917 | 1919 | 1927 | 1928 | 1929 | 1930 | 1935 | 1936 | 1953 | 1958 | 1990 | 2010 | 2023 | |
