Hirdy's tell all interview

[invinciBlues]

Robbo will flail him with a wet lettuce. Get Fatprick to interview him, at least he'll ask a few tough questions.

My thoughts It'll anything but a tell all and more of some bullshit touchy feely crap about how hard done by he was and more unsubstantiated innuendo about what phone calls were to whom that he wasn't even privy to to begin with.

Hearsay, conjecture, and a nice long rant from Robbo about how we should feel bad for Hird and how evil the AFL is for having rules to begin with, let alone expecting the EFC to actually comply with them.

 

[MaddAdam]

because he's wealthy or because he seems like a bit of a dick?

[cue political argument]

More because he hired Ian Hanke as his spinner and appears to move in circles - possibly related to his wealth - and live a life ... house in Toorak etc ... that screams Lib voter.

Some will point to him hiring Burnside as "proof" of something or other but that's beside.

Anyway, who James Hird does or doesn't vote for isn't really the biggest fish to fry IMO. He can vote for who wants to, like the rest of us.

He may have even voted for the Motoring Enthusiast Party in the Senate.

 

[CharacterFirst]

What a guy Sir James is, he waited till the final series is over because he wanted people to focus on the football and not to derail the season with this investigation. Such a heroic act to protect the integrity of the game.

Indeed. Very brave.

ew, can't think of anything i'd rather hear less than hirdy's "tell all" interview. everything he says is suspect, every word he utters is like a turd dropping into my drink.

Rather keep to the gossip and innuendo would you?

you honestly think he's going to say anything new or valuable?

 

[brazilblue]

He's going to spill the beans on what a great place he has found

He should be real careful because he could add petrol to a roaring flame and make himself to be an even bigger douche than he already is once the dust settles.

This truly is the gift that keeps on giving.

Ahh the joy of another footy off season where its almost like the season is still going.

Thank you James, thank you EFC.

Hey wait a minute .... The address of the good place is worth millions I tell ya!

Don't know, how about wait and see? Or, to truly run counter to the spirit and intent of this board, maybe try to form your opinions as fact AFTER everything is done?

You make it sound like players are still waiting for their injections.....

brace yourself, because i have exclusive insight into what he's going to say:

it's going to be a pile of narcissistic self-serving rubbish, painting himself out to be some sort tragic victim in all this in an attempt to regain some public support. he'll tell us he took the hit to protect his beloved essendon. everything he says is going to be a rehash of what we already know, he won't say anything that might shock or damage the afl/efc because he thinks he's going to be head coach again in 12 months time.

Why is hiring Hanke an indication of one thing and hiring Burnside beside?
Don't need to answer I don't really care. He probably voted ALP-9604.

 

[Tiger Snake]

Hird ego has burnt Essendon...the Club he 'loves'

has gone from golden boy to a turd covered in glitter and will never have any respect outside Essendon.
after the histrionics from EFC and threats of legal action blah blah blah...

who, outside of Essendon people, can take the clown seriously?

 

[Boxhead_31]

How does one have a tell all interview in a newspaper style format?
Hird if you want the public to believe you sit down in front of the cameras and face questions put to you by a trusted journo like Mike or someone similar not a powderpuff piece written by your biggest fanboy

 

[jenny61_99]

Yep. This year has shown how tone deaf Hird actually is.

Any PR person worth their salt would advise against this in the strongest possible terms IMO.

I simply don't see what he hopes to gain from this. Even if he does have something new that exonerates him etc, I just don't see people being willing to even listen.

People want a break from all this stuff.

He was advised against messing with peptides too. I just get the feeling he's been so belligerent I wouldn't put it past him to have gone against his PR advice all the way through this. It would explain the appalling choices he's made.

 

[SunshineBoy]

Ahh Finally the truth, is Oprah doing it?, will it be in Melbourne or from his Villa in the South f France?

 

[Slax]

Would rather Lavinia Nixon.

Yes, a hell of a lot easier on the eye and would provide the same hard hitting questions.

I would suggest all students undertaking creative writing to read this article prior to sitting their exams.

 

[the_interloper]

Hird will be guided by his legals as to what he will and won't reveal.

Thanks Ben.

 

[HirdyLannister]

I hope Julian Burnside proofreads it first.

 

[Armchair Critic]

He should do it with Oprah style

 

[HirdyLannister]

He should do it with Oprah style

Tom Cruise or Lance Armstrong style?

 

[Armchair Critic]

Tom Cruise or Lance Armstrong style?

They are both screwed in the head so either but Lance is definitely more appropiate in this case

More like your interpretation of the snippets of behaviour youve seen in the media.

Classic attitudes here. People have bagged Hird for not telling his story as he said he would. Now he's about to theyre analysing his comments before he makes them.

Oh BF, you never fail to deliver

BigFooty HTB:

No Hird interview: "where's the truth Hirdy, you said you'd tell all. Coward!! We've spent almost every waking moment posting about this for 9 months and you're avoiding us!"

Hird interview announced. Nek Minnut: "piss off Hird we don't want to hear from you, we're sick of this whole thing!"

Never change
