"
How dare you all laugh at an AFL legend like this, Hird will be back better than ever and you'll all see and get yours."

I'm laughing harder right now after that remark.

Just noticed your avatar. That was a ******* great show. Can't wait for season 2.
And for those who haven't seen American Horror Story - season 2, I suggest you do. Season 4 has started off great as well.
I sincerely hope that was left undeleted so everyone could enjoy it.

It can be found under the stickied Oogac thread and the author of that post tried to pass it off as a fishing expedition but contextually it is all too real.

There are some geniuses:
"
Why the **** do ASADA need guest appearances from these people?!? They have interviewed them and got everything they felt was required for their investigation, why do they need to cross examine them like witnesses in court? This stinks of ASADA STILL working on a case that should be finished after the good part of two years. Either there's good material from these people in the SCN packages or there isn't."

Nothing is happening, and the natives are restless. Veterans like yourself are jumping at minor trolls.
How many EFC threads are there on the first page?

St Kilda no longer provide us with our off season fun given that they have delisted Clint Jones and their mad monday was a tepid Tuesday.
Next month may get better when people(plural) have their court dates.
Even NM is not norfing it.....

You could make that argument about most social media (including forums). What a w***er.

Just when I thought that all the Hirdites had expelled their bile, there is the commentary on the article comparing James Hird to Lindy Chamberlain:
"The comparison to Lindy Chamberlain is excellent. Chamberlain was presumed guilty via media, the police manipulated evidence to fit the crime, the public were demanding her head. Here we have a coach presumed guilty by most of the media and public ( ever read a vitriolic C. Wilson article? Not only does she put the hatchet through Hird but also his family, charming! Now newcomer to the Hird assasination squad, Rita Panahi , supposed social commentator, is also sinking the boots in, why? Because it's currently great sport and in vogue at the moment) and a Government agency manipulating evidence (and taking a sloth like approach) to suit the narrative. Yes the comparison to Lindy Chamberlain is certainly valid, heck I'm even shocked Wison hasn't yet blamed Hird for Azaria's disapperance!!!"

More commentary:
"The AFL - Demitriou are the responsible party - the top FAILED to monitor and administer its franchises.Hird is GUILTY of providing a sporting environment that allowed the notion that chemicals could improve the athletes results? Training and natural ability do that.Hird has been denied his legal rights and processes by a biased media with self interests and the AFL. The Age in particular has ignored all personal rights and has consistently sucked up to the AFL at the expense of journalistic integrity.ASADA have bungled the process - due to a lack of funding, interference via political, media and the AFL to achieve satisfactory outcomes - rather than legal and factual and provable truths. It is simple - athletes are 100% responsible for what they ingest or take in any form. If you are stupid enough to take arsenic then you get the outcome you are responsible for even if someone told you it was chocolate. WADA is bigger than the AFL and the interference of media and government. Hopefully WADA will reign supreme.The players are getting what they signed up for - the imposition of the ASADA/WADA regulations that are world wide the rule book of drugs in sport.Hird is the face of a scape goat - he is hiding those responsible at a higher level. Murdoch was responsible for everything, so to is the AFL boss."

"
At the end of the day, I'll back Essendon even if all allegations are true. I was never a fan of the Essendon sports science department, I was a fan of Tim Watson, Michael Long, Mark Harvey, Hird, Che Cockatoo... then Lloyd, Lucas, Caracella, Wellman, then Hille, Jobe Watson,, Heppell, Zach Merrett etc.... At the end, the players are the biggest victims here, and deserve support through their careers. If Hird was the catch-all for the anti-doping security at EFC, then there were much bigger problems than the head coach. It should be the job of the sports scientists, doctors and lawyers to make sure everything's compliant, not the man in charge of training regimes and tactics.
But... we're not even at the point of assigning blame yet, after 20 months nothing has been proven. Innocent until proven guilty!"

Hird had his say and got "Middletoned". Pretty sure he is getting natural justice.
