I do not treat 'teams' as 'people'. A team isn't 'mentally weak'. It isn't 'lacking in confidence'. Those kind of things are for individuals, and press conferences and media hacks. Teams are extremely complex systems, far above the simple and basic anthropomorphic labels usually applied by so-called journalists. Chaos theory applies to complex systems like these, where slight causes have unpredictable effects. Without a comprehensive understanding of the inner workings and functions of the team, and without an in-depth knowledge of each player's mindset and physical capabilities and health, and without years of experience in the field, it is almost childish to point and 'guess' the path to success. See plane fly, like big bird. Ug.

Aaaah as angry/emotional as I get after a loss, a James Hird press conference makes me feel better and I don't know why.
Top up your Kool Aid sir?
Leave Sir James alone

I think Hird will walk if shit goes pear shaped.
Pear shaped! Should have walked when it turned yellow rectangular prism shape.

Looks like it only counts as playing AFL if you play for Essendon:
McKernan has learnt the game enough to play AFL. Will be a top player. He only started playing Australian Rules this
season.

First drugs and sterilisation, now mutilation... What will Hird do next???
It would not surprise me one iota if we saw Fletcher kick on next season with new bits attached from the body harvesting of Hurley, Bellchambers, and Zaharakis

Hird is more likely to experiment with radiation exposure than he is to pick up a coaching and motivation guidebook

Re: WADA v 34 Essendon Football Club Players.
I am an aged pensioner, who has been basically home-bound for 12 years. I am a rugby fanatic, and although I had no ties whatsoever to the AFL, ASADA or Essendon FC, I became obsessed with the saga in July 2013 when a friend asked me to examine the process. Since then, I have spent 12 to 15 hours a day, seven days a week on the issue. I have 42 arch lever folders containing over 11,000 pages. I have not received a cent for my work.

Well except for James Hird I have very close personal ties to both he and his family but other than that....
