After a season with Heidelberg, Hird moved to Canberra, serving as captain-coach of Eastlake from 1969 to 1971.[3]

He settled in Canberra, where he worked in the ACT Public Service. He remained involved in local football and from 1989 to 1991 was president of AFL Canberra.

His son, James Hird, also played for and coached Essendon.[4]
