How dare the WCE simply sack a premiership player, multiple best & fairest winner, rising star winner, brownlow medal winner, all australian representative without finding him a home eh E4E? God, you are pathetic. You know he is a drug addict. And it is safe to assume, if West Coast didn't do i...

Campo retired. Bolton retired. COle was a drunk. SO basically two of those names, if Essendon had a hand in in forcing them out, would have nominated for the Draft, if they thought they could continue on. Based on that they made decision on ther own to retire. THEREFORE, your list of names 'ealesy' ...

E4E you are a right ******* idiot and have seriously sunk to an all time level of being a spastic (Sorry to all the spastics out there) here... I can't even be bothered reading this forum any longer!!!! Don't let the door hit you on the way out. ALso why is it retardted to disagree with how we got ...

That would be a different story. However, teh comments by Knights, about MJ having a future in AFL and the rumors about Port being interests, lead me to beleive there were offers.

Knowing the AFL, they would give pick 3 back to Carlton.

I believe it was a smart idea to delist Kepler instead of trading him for a 4th round. Reason being, we delist him and most likely Freo will pick him up in the PSD, and that leaves a "better" player for us to pick up if we choose to. So we either get nothing or something that is worth not...

Forgot to add. Fremantle wanted Kepler. However we cared more about getting a first round pick, then helping him move back home.

Essendon: "Sure, we will help you get to Fremantle Kepler...as long as we get more than you are worth in return"

I'm not upset he is gone Keri. That is not my problem. My problem is we didn't do enough to make sure they could continue there career's. And Doolan can say what ever the f*** he wants, he is wrong. Those two, eventhough they reached different hieghts worked there asses off for ass (even though kepl...

You are dead right E4E, we should have thrown Lloyd in as a sweetner for the Bradley deal and Lucas in as incentive for someone to take MJ... Shame on the club and all involved. Put the crack pipe down. Whether we traded them or de-listed them, we got basically nothing in return. However one scenar...

Bradley's gone. Why aren't people happy? Because we should have tired harder to make sure he adn MJ found new homes to continue there career's. Now it is up to chance. If it was good enough for Geelong to do it with King, we as supporters should expect the same thing. Sorry that is not the proper f...

They did do the wrong thing keri. They should have made sure those two guy's got to continue there career's. Whether we got pick 2 or pick 90 for them.

Did you rad the post you quoted? My problem is we didn't make sure they got to continue there career's else where. We have left there career's in limbo. It is up to chance now.

That is not how you treat your players...espicially a premiership player.

I never enjoyed footy more than when JJ, MJ, Solly, Hardwick and Wallis were intimidating and instilling genuin fear into the opposition, but the game has changed, its an athletes game now not a game for gladiators like those guys. In those fantasitic years the Johno's were my favorites and its a d...

Mark Johnson and Kepler gave service to our club, (regardles of how bad I feel kepler was). Our goal should have been to guarantee them new homes. Not get the best deal we could for ourselves. Spit in a face to them, espicially Mark Johnson.

What a spit in the face of Johnson. ""I spoke to Mark prior to trade week and told him we would try and find him a Club because I could not guarantee him a place in the side next year. At least now he has time to weigh up his options and nominate for the pre-season draft should he wish to ...

easley I resent it being implied that I'm not 'a decent Essendon supporter' because I don't automatically hate Judd due to his new club, but thanks anyway. It was his choice, his career. Good on him. I don't give a shit who he plays for if it ain't us. Sorry to offend Megan....did not mean to sugge...

ANd he failed to lead his club. Year after year, he came to the club over-weight and out of shape.

I have a feeling Kepler won't want to sign. Apparently he wanted to go to Perth adn his family wanted him to go home aswell. Out of Pev and MJ I would rather Mj. MJ and Peveril are both tough guys, but I feel mark Joshon is more value. Here is why. He can stay back and be a general down there, yet g...
