Bombertalk

Very deftly handle by Paul Hamilton who showed more dazzling footwork than he ever did as player. With a media pack all on their high horses trying to lay traps at every turn he put them all flat on their collective faces. And what's more Bomber and Hirdy had "prior" commitments. Talk abou...

There are two types of business leaders. Those that screw down the employee and hire at the minimum cost for the job safe therefore they themselves feel safe and smug. Or there are those and search and take aim for who they think is THE best available for the future and are willing to pay top dollar...

Perhaps with her source gone Wilson feels free to put an altogether different spin on things with no one to keep onside any more.

Have been extremely impressed with David Evans from the start when early in the season in his first TV interview he said"I don't see why we shouldn't be aiming at the finals every year". Exactly. That's the way it always was until Jackson proudly and publicly came out with one of his "...

Always time for one last crack eh.

Yeah OK.
Like the snub though.
Without willing him any harm wish he would just disappear into the ether for a while and pursue something that suits.
Storeman at Safeway perhaps.

Why would you feel sorry for Knights.
He managed to convince himself and others he could coach.Ended up being promoted well above his capabilities.
Like Leonardo Di Caprio in "Catch me if you can",he was eventually caught out.
Peter Jackson sure left his mark.

Wouldn't it be marvelous if the affect follows that of two previous favorite sons Reynolds and Coleman who both had flags after two years.
Wishful thinking perhaps-but.

Gringo is right. It's far too early to get carried away. The lists is still garbage and needs serious trimming. Hird is untried as a coach and comes in really just with his name. By all means kids be 'excited' but all this talk of having a powercracnk at work is just over the top... Hirdy doesnt th...

Probably just a happy 93 premiership reunion.

Can we sign them all up?

Reckon the game might have changed a bit in 50 years.

Indeed it has.
But modest Champs are modest Champs in any era particularly at the Bombers.

Dunno about that.

Just more grist for the overburdend rumor mill.
Robson is playing the media game very well.No more of this "process" stuff.

Yes excellent article and all too true but Robert was obviously restricted by the editor as he could have written at least double that.
Pity he wasn't on the original interview panel.

Wouldn't mind having him.Lot better than plenty this year.
Probably pissed off with Knights like everyone else.
Good luck to him.

And to think they had Coleman in there sights that year but wouldn't give him a game resulting in Richmond almost snaring him before they reluctantly saw the light.

Not surprised senior players were grumbling.Knights treated most of them appallingly from the start.They had earned their stripes.He hadn't: neither as a player or previous coaching record.A couple may have even played against him. Make no mistake Knights caused huge damage. The first task of the ne...

It's because they had all that space reserved for a Labor victory celebrations unused.

Ah,give him a go .
He never said he was a politician.
It's sad when he is the only one to speak his mind when all the rest are obvuscating or pontificating.

Hey hang on we have to go through a process.Powerpoint presentations counless interviews. how you hold your knife and fork. That's the new way forward you know. Hirdy wouldn't waste his time and neither would any half decent candidate. Just occasionally dabble in reality do you Rover 7? I'll get wi...
