Sums the guy up very nicely.

"His amazing little face, beaming with gratitude, made me realise how powerful is the great gift of giving which is the core philosophy of The Hayden Way."

Yeah have to agree with that article. Great player, but did come across as a bit of a see you next Tuesday.

Had we dropped Haydos for Hussey early in that 2005 series we could have won.

yeah didn't tell me alot about him to be honest, already knew he was a campaigner.

funny how these holier than thou guys seem to be campaigners, though interestingly enough JL is actually a nice guy.

The comments at the end of that article paint him in a far better light. Well respected around the world ... from the fans at least.

His Twitter name 'AM' and his twitter bio just screams 'tosser'

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

The AM seems a distinction. There is another Matthew Hayden using @matthewhayden on twitter and his bio says athiest. Haydos would be looking to separate himself from that account.

The rest ... meh promoting a business. That's what you do when you still work after retiring.

He's verified. He doesn't need the AM as a distinction.

I reckon you are being picky.

The man's a flog there's no doubting that. His website is evidence enough.

Heaven forbid anybody try to market themselves for post retirement.

Live and let live I reckon.

While I agree with Old Dark Navy, his website is basically a shrine to himself.

As are all motivational speaker sites. Self promotion is the key. He is just trying to build a brand so he doesn't have to do real work.

Like evangelists. Good luck if you find anybody that buys into it.

I'm sure Hayden would lose some sleep if he ever read this...

It says a lot about the bloke when the only people who like him are the ones who don't know him.

Is that a generalisation? You don't really know everybody that knows him do you?

 

[Demosthenes]

Bottom line; the guy's a well known campaigner.

 

[Hudu Gurusingha]

Worst thing about Hayden is that sure he might be a bullying campaigner - but he puts up this whole facade to the media of being Mr Nice Guy. THE worst type of campaigner.

Sweep shots don't count

 

[HugeJohnson]

Smelled one of his farts once. Wasn't bad. Wasn't bad at all.

Matthew Hayden retired 7 years ago.

It's time to give it all a rest.
