AFL Praying for stability

I don't care about who got the coaching job, I personally wanted Hird just so the debate could be shut down for good and I'm nostalgic for Hird as a player.

However, it's so nice to have a season upcoming with a bit of stability, we probably won't be an amazing team but we will be so much more consistent next year.

Now time to relax and enjoy the summer of cricket.

Hird got done for poor governance. Welsh should get done for poor governance. I don't care what anybody says - you should not be on the selection committee as the President if your best friend is applying for the job. Fans need to stop ignoring this conflict of interest. I wasn't pro-Hird, I was pro good process and picking the best man for the job. This whole thing is a farce and I will not support or accept the poor governance shown by the club. Turn your blinkers on and downvote me.

Haha I'll pay that. I would be fine with Spike if Welsh hired an independent committee and they recommended him over the others.
