James Heard has said, I would love to be part of the process.

I want to pit my wares against the other coaches.

I want to return and rebuild the Essendon spirit.

He doesn't want Essendon fans having to apologise for supporting their football club.

In my opinion.

Mm-hmm.

You?

I'll say to you what I said to him yesterday, late yesterday when I spoke to him and I asked him what he was up to and that type of thing.

And he said that he was going to go on footy classified last night and he was going to put his hand up when he was asked the question.

He'll go through the process.

I said, well, I'll tell you now, this is my position.

It's always been my position.

And that is that the club goes through the process and they find the best candidate.

Now, if that happens to be you, great.

But I was up front with him and I'm up front with people right now saying exactly the same thing.

And for those like silly Cameron out there who thinks that there's already some sort of job that's been done.

If there was already a deal that's been done, hand on my heart, I know nothing about a deal that might have been done.

And I do not support that either if a deal was being done.

All right, let's listen to James Hurd committing to a process.

Well, I think that's the absolute.
