Re: what the?

I believe Lloyd knows of his role next year (ie. playing the modern game and being able to move around the ground - there is no such thing as a modern full-forward because numbers are always placed behind the ball, so there is no long direct kick to the goal square - especially given our game style)...

Re: Teams - 1st Elimination Final vs Adelaide

I would have liked to have seen Daniher get a game in place of Skipworth. Otherwise, it's the best we could have put on the park under the circumstances. Lonergan and Ryder will be missed. I think we are a crazy chance, but we would need to control the crowd early. They are a bunch of in-bread moron...

Lorrie the bar lady is an Essendon fan. Just say you're in Adelaide to watch the Bombers and you should be fine.

Re: Leigh Montagna - An Essendon Inspiration

I purely made that Delistings post because you have to make 5-6 changes to the list each year. I was interested to know who people thought would get delisted. Also, every Club has players who progressively get better, but they also draft guys and they're discarded at the end of their first or second...

Delistings

With the loss last week - and to me it appears we've run out of gas (especially Paddy after his stirling effort in the ruck this year) - that is in hindsight best for the Club if we miss out of finals this year. I know that will come with much criticism, but what are we going to do when we actually ...

Re: Ladder Predicter

11 wins plus percentage could get you there. A part from the two standouts - and then the bulldogs - you can throw a handkerchief over 4th to 10th in terms of where the teams are at. My 8: Saints Cats Dogs Pies Lions Crows Bombers Hawthorn Carlton will win only two more against North and Melb. To me...

Re: Senior Players

Thanks Crazyman for not blowing up like others. I think the point I was trying to make was we need them now because we are developing and there are no obvious replacements, but they won't take us to our next Premiership. Also, the experience issue to me is overrated these days. Most clubs have a hig...

Re: Senior Players

You are living in the past and obviously speaking from the heart when suggesting we shouldn't be looking to retire Lloyd and Lucas. Their best days are done - and think for the betterment of the footy club and team that they move aside and let the team develop without them (whether this year or next...

Senior Players

I watched a replay of the Bulldogs game - and have no doubt we will be a better team when we pension off Lloyd and Lucas. I think with Hille coming back next year there is a real possibility to send Hille to the goal square. Like a Salmon or like other Clubs are doing or considering doing. Players w...

Re: The continuing impressive Mr Knights

Knighta hasn't done anything as yet, but there is obvious improvement. I think it can be underestimated the work of the coaching group as a whole with the likes of Hamilton, Campo, O'Donnell, Richardson, Prescott and Hickmott. But, I see a bit of Neil Craig in Knighta in that he is never content wit...

Re: The continuing impressive Mr Knights

I like emotion because players quickly pick up on it. We need to play with emotion and let emotion hit us when we don't do well and be allowed to expend emotion when we do do well. More power to Knighta and what I think is a very well groomed group of assistants and support staff. GO BOMBERS!!!!!!!!...

Re: Team vs Bulldogs

I'm happy with Natrat before Slatts. He's still a bit undecided when he actually gets the pill Slats. I'm not a Houli fan at this stage. I'm happy for him to prove me wrong however. A bit like most players on our list who have seemed to be able to get their body right. It's funny how everyone gets h...

Re: Sheeds is Becoming a Bitter Old Man

I think Sheeds is entitled to say what he thinks. Sheeds knows Lyon is not a Sheedy fan and hates Essendon, hence why Sheeds said what he did about the selection process. Hutchy is a twat and Lyon has no football success playing for a Club that has been a basket case since Barrassi went to play for ...
