James Hird has decided to play another season and call it his last. He will hand over the captaincy at the end of this season however.

That's a shame.



















(I would rather he retired this year.)

That's sad. What's even more sad is that Lloyd is taking over.

Bon, this is the best part of all.

Essendon will be a pack of headless chooks with Velvet as captain. Kenny Williams has better leadership skills than Lloyd.

When Sheeds was trying Lloyd at CHF this season I was left thinking that it may have been a move to let Jimmy see out a few more seasons deep in the forward line.

Lloyd to take over?
Sheedy is on drugs.
The club has gone to the dogs.
