Why Essendon losses hurt Hird's chances and did Hardwick go too far?

The Monday night footy shows don't rest and neither do Corbin and Bob Murphy who sort the fact from fiction. Do the pile up of Bombers losses under Solomon hurt James Hird's coaching aspirations, Fremantle should be cheering for Sydney Swans in 2026 and have Craig McRae and Collingwood changed their 'players over picks' motto?Plus do they need to fix Adelaide Oval or can the coaches just be better and the boys score the Sam McClure vs Adam Simpson boxing match taking place over the Carlton coach search.ABC AFL commentators Corbin Middlemas and Ben Cameron are joined by a rolling squad of former AFL players and legends of the game to analyse matches, deep dive the stories dominating the footy landscape, recap game highlights and talk through the latest AFL ladder standings. Our squad of Aussie Rules legends runs deep with champion ex-players like Brett Deledio, Marc Murphy and Luke Ball, record-holding coach Mick Malthouse and many more. The team discuss everything from AFL games and fixtures, to the AFL draft and key players' performance, and of course our highlights of the year; AFL Grand Final and AFL State of Origin.For more Australian Rules Football podcast content, catch every episode of ‘The ABC AFL Daily Podcast’, hosted by Corbin Middlemas and Ben Cameron on ABC listen or wherever you get your podcasts, and get in touch with them on social media via @abc_sport
