What a joke :banghead :banghead :banghead :banghead :banghead :banghead :banghead :banghead :banghead :banghead :banghead :banghead :banghead
-
Yep...didn't even see him for most of the game...He's retiring though...deserves another token trophy :banghead :banghead :banghead
-
i don't think he was BOG, however it's hard to think of a player that was better than him, 10 players could've won it.
-
Lids, Polak, Hille, Stanton, Mcphee just to name a few.
Hird BOG is a disgrace.
Absolute joke.

Even Richo was bloody better, not to mention those Bull already has.
-
They gave it to Hird for that tackle near the end. Essendon won so they gave it to him.
How about his speech - "We know how Richmond feels". Yep sure you do James :chuck.
-
I'm getting sympathy texts from Essendon supporters, they are not being returned in kind.
-
:chuck
Nothing more to say :banghead
-
I thought Lucas should have got it. All subjective. I was pretty surprised Hird got it. Might have scraped into the top dozen.
-
Hird BOG what a freakin joke he hardly was sited
Polak Bowden & Richo killed hird for BOG
End of game my daughter brought the phone out to me & said its for me
l could hear the Bombers theme song being played even before l had it in my hand so l smashed the thing & the family & everyone bolted they thought l was gunna have one of my explosive moments cause the rules of the game have taken there toll on me :-[
Visitors left & everyone in the house scooted its quite now l'm watching the replay as l typo ;D
-
Thought that Adam McPhee was EASILY best on ground.
His contested marks were a highlight.
Played both ends of ground. excellent game.
-
Essendon supporters on the Richmond Board at Big Footy couldn't believe that Hird got BOG. I would have picked Stanton or McPhee over Hird. But then a Richmond player probably would have been more deserving. Just goes to show that James Hird really is the Golden Boy. What a joke!! Even the media were surprised Hird got it.

Until the last qtr was almost ineffectual
Lids vs Lucas for BOG IMHO

Er the tackle where he rode Meyer into the ground via his back ::)

Was listening to SEN driving home some bloke phoned up and gave Jimmy ther best spray for the above comment.
Jimmy has NO IDEA who we feel.
He has been absolutely blessed in his career to have played finals consistently, play in GF. He has sooked when they haven't won. Heck he believes they are a top 4 side this year.
Jimmy maybe a champion player but I'd like to know how he would have coped if he really had to put up with what with we have for the last 25 years.
Jimmy you have NO IDEA

I thought he meant as in just losing the Dreamtime game, like Essendon did last year. I didn't, and still don't, read any more into it.
It's not his fault he was awarded the medal. :)

Agree Fish it isn't his fault that he won the boomerang but the comment....well..... it isn't the first time he has said something that has come across as condescending to the opposition ::)
Probably wasn't his intent but from where I was sitting that's what it sounded like....
-
I tend to give people the benefit of any doubt - a sucker would probably be accurate. :-[ Not that I mind. :)
I also thought Matthew Lloyd did a good job with his speech. :o An Essendon fan behind me was saying, "Don't talk Lloydy, don't talk" ;D but I reckon he did well.
It's hard not to come across as arrogant or condescending to the losing team when you're a winner. eg Aussie cricket team.
-
As a player on the winning side all you need to say is "Thanks to insert losing team for a great game tonight. Well done to our boys on the win and thanks to all the supporters for coming and making it a great night. Cheers!" If you say anything more it sounds condensending or patronising.
-
It was plain insulting to the players that were better on the ground. Heck, I wouldn't have minded half as much if it had been given to Stanton or McPhee but Hird???!!! Give me strength!!!!!

i can tell you who played better than hird
DELEDIO
followed by : polak, richo, lucas, even that winderlick was better than hird
but deledio was by far the best and sexiest player on the ground
Go Kent!

The Age certainly thought this if you look at the poll on their homepage.

Sheeds thought so too. Gave Lids his 5 votes in the coaches award. Lids finished with 8 votes, Lucas was next with 7 and Hird got 2.
