James Hird set to appeal as early as tomorrow @superfooty

Hey Essendon, you can easily break up now!

Lol what a joke of a football club. And hird has shot his legacy forever.

Also Essendope **** fans booing paddy Ryder when his name is mentioned at their best and fairest. The same best and fairest Hird was told not to attend.

I mean, James is absolutely insane if he gets himself kicked out of Essendon over this.

Hird says it's a matter of principle

I just don't think he understands what the court case is about - it's not about him and whether he was bullied into accepting the suspension; or about whether ASADA took too long; or whether the AFL is secretive

Rather it's about a very narrow question, namely whether ASADA acted outside of its Charter

I mean, it's a principal that Hird waited 14 months, or whatever, to bring up, and only as a way to dodge show cause notices. great principal bud

Haven't been on here since Friday..geez wasn't the GF a total letdown

Granted, Hawks were brutal and ballistic in the opening quarter but, like fielding in cricket, there is one thing in football you can control regardless of how awesome your opposition is playing....that thing is tackling

For the Swans to register just 7 tackles into the start of the 2nd quarter, was woeful (apparently they aim for 100 tackles per match)

So, hats off to the Hawks, but Sydney really just flopped

Frawley to Hawthorn

Free agency is the greatest un-equalisation measure ever introduced (since COLA)
Hawks lost Franklin to free agency. Then won the flag.

Geelong lost Yiabbbblettt to GC. Then won the flag.

Melbourne have been given every leg up possible, including the AFL funding friggin' Paul Roos. Sick of him wahhing.

Same goes for Richmond as well by the way, who whinged cos GWS and GC got picks when they were crud.

If you suck, fix your culture like Port did, recruit intelligently, and draft properly.
