"The majority of posts on Bombertalk in the last few weeks have been 'tres negative and disrespectful of the efforts of the Club and players to put us back on top again.
Dermot Brereton was asked after the Carlton game what it would take to make the EFC a top team. He said : a less crowded forward line and elite mid fielder.
Everyone should stop being critics and hop on board. We probably have the most potent forward line in the AFL, a top 3 backline and 3 great young ruck options (Hille, Laycock and Ryder) AND the new improved Angus Monfries.
Then for the centres pick from JJ, Jobe Watson, Stanton, Hislop,Bolton,Winderlich, Dyson, Mark Johnson, McVeigh , Camporale, Dempsey , Lovett, Davey, Bradley, Houliand Peverill. WE ONLY NEED 5 FROM THIS GROUP TO STAND UP, THAT IS 5 FROM 16. We should not underrate the capabilty of JJ and Camporale to lead this group.
Lets all get on board !!!!!!!!!! """
IT IS REALLY INTERESTING BUT THE SONG REMAINS ALMOST THE SAME EXCEPT KNIGHTA FOR SHEEDS AND GOLDEN DRAFT PICKS FOR HIRDY
It seems that we cut out the "dead wood" from the team and retired who need to be retired. It seems the MIDFIELD is still the key to the Essendon nirvana. Let's hope the song changes by next year.
Happy New Year to all!
