Darren Bewick kicking 9 goals in his first game back from a knee reco in 1996.

Adam Goodes. He is so versatile. he can play ruck, medfield, back and forward. He does everything.

He had a great list. That is why St kilda is always in teh finals. They have great players. The reasons why they don't go further is because of their coach. Either get in some new blood like Harvey and see where it takes them.

Two bad years for Essendon with a depleted playing list. He made us play one-on-one attacking football to see who is good enough to take us forward. Our young players improved drastically this year and we lost close games due to our senior players not being on the paddock.

yeah, lets sackhim. lol.

I think Lucas shoudl have been on the bench. He carried the side and kicked as many goals as Hall. If Fevola can get in, the (Your team couldn't win), isn't a valid reason.

I think hansen as well. We need a good KPP and we have midfielders coming through. Dempsey, Jolley, Watson, Stanton, Lovett and a few others, they may not be Judds just yet but they will make up a formidable midfield. Having said that, if carlton take Hansen then we take Gibbs. Keep in mind Gibbs i...

It changes all the time. Right now it is: B: McVeigh, Fletcher, M. Johnson HB: Lovett-Murray, Hansen, McPhee C: Lovett, Watson, Dyson HF: Akermanis, Lucas, Hird F: Monfries, Lloyd, Johns R: Hille, J. Johnson, Stanton Int: Winderlich, Laycock, Slattery, Camporeale Emerg: Ryder, Lee, Nash Lots of tra...

Look at it this way. Lucas had teh best defender week n and week out. When Hird was playing he had teh second. With Llyod in the side, Lucas gets teh second and Hird gets the third best defender. Put Johns in from the side and Aker on the flank. Thats a pretty dangerous forward line.

There is so many. I love how Dyson has the balls to take the opposition on with his leg speed. Monfries has so much courage. Johns with his strong marking ability and improved kicking. Stanton can run for days. Lovett has that special something. Then you have Nash, L-Murray, and a few others. Our li...

Its clear that the list is why Carlton are losing games. Sacking the coach won't fix anything.

I don't think the world will be worse, with his passing. I think his idea's about conservation and other thoughts will leave on and people will realise the message he was trying to send. The world wasn't talking about Steve as much when he was here. He has passed and all voer the world at this one t...

I like it "Koala".

I woudl leave the trade section open though. During the season we can have some fun with potential off-season trades and discuss the next crop of young talent come through that year.

1. Fletcher
2. Lucas
3. McVeigh

Most improved: Watson

He was taught to play the old game of AFL. The game has become quicker and more reliant on foot skills. That has hurt him and Solomon for that matter. However he has gotten around that and become a solid player.

Brisbane may need some tough defenders. Soloman is an option with Lee, Lucy and a few tall players in the draft.

Well that is truley a bad sign. I hate to think that our supporters think that low of our players.

You DONT think we were tanking? We lost, thats what tanking is about. The last few weeks, essendon coaching moves have been made when we have momentum, that slow that momentum. Players dominating in a position have been moving. As someone said, we had heaps of momentum, winning clearances last nigh...

The alck of sub-forums makes things cluttered. Open Serious Stuff and everything is all over the place. The forum revolves around Essendon first. The second thing is other AFL Teams. Everyone here is an Essendon supporter. SO havea n Essendon section then the secion for other AFL matter that don't e...

They are not extra section. They are sub-forums. You can still have it called "Serious Stuff" if you want to remain like the older forum. I jsut think the forum as a whol woudl be easier to navigate around if those sections were given some sub-forums.

Proud of the boys tonight. I still don't see how ANYONE can suggest we have been tanking the season. Bulldogs are a team playing finals and we had not much to play for, but we pushed them to the limit. After this year most of our young guys will have an improved cardio and skill level. Look out in 2...
