Talk about everything Essendon. Past, Present and Future if it's about the Bombers this is the place to be.

I bet if Fremantle could reverse that trade they would... Tarrant has been a disaster and i wouldnt be surprised if he looked to come back to Victoria next season.

Didnt we get Reimers and Houli (their draft selections) in exchange for Soloman as well... we have done well out of that!!

Yes, we got picks 42 & 47 for Solomon - Houli & Reimers.

Fremantle are just a laughing stock. Will probably be belted again this week. As for Tarrant how many good games would he have played in his career?

For a focal point in the forward line - to only kick over 50 goals in a season twice in 10 seasons is rubbish. He has never kicked over 55 goals. One of the most overrated blokes to ever play AFL.

Shhhh BD, with facts like that you might dispel popular myths about certain players.... *cough* Nick Riewoldt *cough*. At least no one, aside from Collingwood supporters and a few media dolts, really ever rated Tarrant.

Riewoldt has so much smoke blown up his arse by all and sundry that i'm surprised he hasn't turned into an incense dispenser.

Interesting stats on the news here last night....Tarrant has actually increased his possessions and marks at the Dockers and his goal average is only slightly down on what he did at Collingwood.

As for Riewoldt, I read an interesting comment about him in Inside Football this week...."Nick RIewoldt is a quality player but rarely a match-winner"

For someone with his rep, you would expect that he would win more games of his own boot than he does....maybe his rep is largely hype :wink:

Hopefully that hype continues with another bad performance by him tonight!
