- In this time with North Sydney, Bird hit the headlines when he hit former Test batsman Michael Slater injuring the former test star in the process.
- Bird now plays his cricket with Bankstown Cricket Club, former home of the Waugh brothers. Bird caused controversy after appearing in a Twenty20 match, in which players wore nicknames on their shirts, with the moniker 'Flu' – a reference to bird flu.
- He was ordered not to wear the name again, as it upset the sponsors of the tournament, KFC. In December 2006 Bird was reported for a suspect bowling action but was later cleared by Cricket Australia.
- In January 2009, his bowling action was again reported.
- After undergoing analysis at the Australian Institute of Sport biomechanics laboratory in Canberra it was found that for some deliveries his elbow extension exceeded the 15-degree limit, he was subsequently banned by Cricket Australia.
