Brad Scott Sacked

[TedDougChris]

They're going to aren't they?

Guy shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a footy club again if the league was serious (its not btw)

It's perfect timing with the "Enhanced Games" running the background, what a promotional opportunity for the Bombers here !!!

Hird to come back

He must still have horcruxs.

Solomon today, Savior soon !!

Its time to come home James. Come home. We are sorry.

 

[Osho]

I like the cut of that Shevin Keedy’s jib.

Jevin Keedy's Shiv?
Ouch.

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

To where ?

Dingley.

 

[MJG14]

There's only one man for the job.

 

[Stax on the mill]

Can't believe Essendon would sack Scott to steal attention from Neale Daniher and resurrect Hirdy.

Probably took the opportunity to sack him, hoping that it would all get swallowed up and lost in the understandable publicity surrounding Neale Daniher’s passing.

 

[Yellow Feathers]

The questions must be asked

• what took them so long?
• why was he head coach in the first place? What did he do at North?

Who didn’t see this coming.

Hird's determination to coach his club again, assuming he's up for it, is psychotic. Unless of course he aims to divide his club again.

think thats backfired, many on talkback are "how dare they stuff up Neale's passing"
It could easily have waited a week or even 3 (get past Kings Birthday)

Put some respect on the great man’s name

SEN reporting Brad Scott has been sacked as Essendon coach.

That’s disappointing for Brad.

Who takes over?

 

[Arathrawn]

Damn. I was really hoping he would stay at Essendon and continue dragging them into oblivion.

I guess Essendon finally worked out it was snake oil Scott was selling.

 

[Cyclops]

Crazy enough to sack yet another coach when the problems are with the board and coteries.

Classless enough to do it during the mourning period for Daniher.

Essendon has a proud history of amazing achievements. First VFL club to demolish religion as a barrier, long periods of sustained success. They did shaft North quite mercilessly, but they weren't evil.

Since Bomber Thompson perverted that idiot Hird into a drug fiend Essendon have been trash.

The AFL pinned the drug saga on Hird, he is definitely a person of bad character according to their own rulings, alkthough in my view he is just a vain fool.

Is he only senior coach banned for systematic use of PEDs? If they let him back into the fold, it is admission they were wrong, and the drug program was run by who?

The kettle is full, the fish stink, and the lid is coming off.

It's as if the Bowls Club put a hex on the Football Club. Overall, the Bombers have been crap since they were evicted.

 

[Bluelegs]

Essendon have probably had the worst decade of recruitment of any club. Under Scott they finally bit the bullet and started to rebuild properly only to sack the coach so early in that process is strange. All they've done is ensured that the next coach is damned to wear the worst part of the rebuild instead of Scott.

Debatable, surely? Do we give them a pass in the last 18 months for rebuilding properly?

Sadly the media will get more mileage from the circus pushing a Hirdy return.

Is it time for James Hird Shane Heard ?

Good luck Brad for your new career at Morris Finance

Prophecy say, in 2027 year of goat, Essendon favourite son who previously led them to ruin will return, to again lead them to ruin.

The prophecy is almost fulfilled. Cmon welshy, do what your heart knows is right.

 

[Orange crush]

Shocked to be sitting here
