I am actually very interested in this and don't see how having the backstory exposed can lessen the impact on Hird in the end. Be he the instigator or the patsy frontman, he's going down the same.

The potential collateral damage goes way past them........
How do you know all this stuff please?Thanks mate. More goodies to come.
WorkCover would be about number 10 on the list of agencies that should have an interest here.So would those who are "way past them" have influence over Workcover? I've never understood why they have not been all over this.

That is the mission.....to sow doubt.....that it even becomes an option.
How do you know all this stuff please?
Yes, but how can it possibly be argued that he wasn't indelibly involved. What's his defense going to be, "I vas just following orders."? But you still put the Zyklon B cannisters down the chutes, didn't you Hirdy? And you knew what they were too, you were at the Calzada briefing, you were being kept informed by Dank, etc.
Burn him down, but take the whole rotten rest of them too.
Settle TW.For that , and more exciting shenanigans.....just sit back and tune in to upcoming episodes from The Hirdite
Same bat time...same bat channel
Settle TW.
Let the man have a bit more rope.
I look forward to it.Throw as much rope as you need, the data holds up. Including what's to come.
For that , and more exciting shenanigans.....just sit back and tune in to upcoming episodes from The Hirdite in Carlton clothing

I hear what you're saying, but this stuff has been hidden in the shadows for too long. Some of us have got threads of it, but not enough to tell the whole story. There's nothing that can be said here now that doesn't also hang Hird.
I also think I know who CozzaD is, and it's not Hanke.
CozzaD, what have you got on Hird's history with Charter? Anything?
What about his knowledge of what Dank was up to, as per the Danny Weidler piece I've posted a few times?
"Which brings us to Hird and Essendon. Hird has to front up to ASADA on Tuesday. He said from the outset that he was in shock to even be fronting a media conference relating to an inquiry into Essendon's practices.Hi. For Hird/Charter 2004 ish (i.e. the photo of them working out) I don't know much. I haven't gone back that far to be honest.
Please send me a link of the Danny Weidler article, I'll do my best for you.
"Which brings us to Hird and Essendon. Hird has to front up to ASADA on Tuesday. He said from the outset that he was in shock to even be fronting a media conference relating to an inquiry into Essendon's practices.
That may well be the case, given that Dank is confident that everything he did, with Essendon's permission and full support, was appropriate. I have been through text message after text message between Dank and Essendon and make no mistake that Hird was more than just aware of what Dank was doing - he was a fan of it and a fan of the results.

At this point, I have been asked to hold fire on the exact details of the contents of the messages but they are detailed in the extreme, with names of players littered throughout the exchanges.
There are also numerous mentions of supplements and processes, which indicates that Hird will have to lay it all bare for ASADA when they meet.
Hird has had suggestions from AFL boss Andrew Demetriou that he should consider standing down. From afar, it appears that he has board support and club support not to follow what Demetriou wants.
Where was that kind of support for Flanagan, who was left to watch from afar as his club floundered? There are some in Melbourne who don't want to believe that these text messages are real. I sat with Dank and went through his phone over a cup of coffee and saw every text message from Hird to him after I had put it to him that the messages could have been falsified.
The next area of interest around Hird will be his statement that he only took injections twice to benefit himself. That is a statement worth remembering and one that may land him in trouble down the track when it comes to his credibility in this matter."

Hird is either naïve, greedy or stupid. I’m not sure which one yet.
In terms of the Governance/Legalities, the “key players” we’ve researched are bigger than Hird, which is why we went down that path. The buck will not stop with him (in the sense that, from his eyes, I wouldn’t want to take the wrap either for the other corporates).
Evans resignation in July 2013 is very interesting, up until that point, it was all “we’re on the same team” and “we’ll work with ASADA on this”.
There’s been a seismic shift in the thinking of Essendon FC powerbrokers since July 2013, when Evans left.
Don’t forget, I still deem that Thompson has got off very lightly in all this, so has Geelong footy club.
Question: Why are you here, telling us all this and getting your powder wet?
