    2017 Rising Star Discussion

    I love how they are only ever compared to champions Never hear anyone compared to Damian Cupido or Jack Mihochek Any indigenous player is compared to a rioli/long or polly farmer depending on size

    AFL Autopsy Essendon v Melbourne, Melbourne by 1 point

    whilst when they cross the line they probably dont think about the asada stuff, it would definitely hamper their preparation and training during the week, mental toughness can only go so far for these players at this stage

    AFL Autopsy Essendon v Melbourne, Melbourne by 1 point

    we butchered the ball going in F50. Daniher was held all game for nothing. Asada umpires made it tough for us. How we didnt all get behind the ball when we regained the lead was amazing, 3 melbourne blokes on their own to kick the last goal. Jack Viney is the new Joel Selwood, bloody head...

    No Oppo Supporters CAS hands down guilty verdict - Players appealing - Dank shot - no opposition - (cont in pt.2)

    Find it weird that Zaharakis has been issued a show cause notice, he is the one player on the list that we know was never injected with anything. why should he settle for 6 months on the side.

    Traded #3: Scott Gumbleton - Traded to Fremantle for pick 55

    Re: Scott Gumbleton- Anyone given up? [Update Feb 2012: Placed on LTI list] If he doesnt play 5 games in a row this year may have to look at delisting him and hoping to rookie draft him. would hate him to do something at another club. might be a back up for hurley if he walks.

    Traded #1: Michael Hibberd - Premiership Player!! Onya Piggy 🐽

    Re: 43- Michael Hibberd Now that he has got his dog back hopefully its a sign of things starting to go right for him. Everyone is allowed 1 mistake, its how we react to and rectify it

    Team Mgmt. Current Contract Status (AFL & AFLW) - Updated in OP

    with 5-6 picks in the rookie draft only really need 3 picks in national draft and 1 in PSD. Ricky Dyson should be let go and then we are finished - Club might look at delisting Long and rookie list him aswell.

    Which Team would Win

    I think that this week and last week we selected injured players. Due to the fact that the windy hill flu is still rampant I suppose we will never know. Michael Hibberd was dropped due to soreness yet did his hammy at the same time??? Still think we can win a couple more and hopefully get...

    Which Team would Win

    Whomb I think you might have missed the point - Team A is ALL INJURED, Hardingham, Williams (retired through injury) and T Slattery are injured aswell

    Toast Mick on Interchange Rule

    Have to agree with that 3 on bench and 3 subs is the only way that you can stop games like this. If the games still had a curtain raiser then the subs could come from that. Injuries on the day or not collingwood would have won, as James Hird said they are more advanced and a better side...

    Which Team would Win

    On looking at our injury list - it has hit over 18 (lets be honest when we say hamstrings are that and not general soreness) so I thought I would make a battle of our 2 teams. I have placed them in roughly their position, remembering that one team has no ruckman to pick. Who do you think will...

    Preview Essendon VS Hawthorn

    Time to bring back reimers and maybe look at williams as a last chance. McVeigh can go as he is doing nothing and doesnt seem to be able to read the play at the moment. Would like to see hibberd played as a half forward or on ball, he has good disposal and can run, something that we have...

    Review vent here vs. North Melbourne

    The worst bit of the game and that which has bugged me for the past few weeks is that when we are in a winning position (even though we havent deserved it of late) that we run out of run in the legs. To me it appears that by sacking our fitness coach we realise that what is good in feb/march...

    Changes for Essendon vs West Coast?

    Ins - Fletcher, Gumby, Atkinson, Prismall and Melksham (rested last week Prismall is ordinary at bendigo and is a firsts player Confirmed Outs - Jetta Other Outs - Dyson, Lonergan - rest to see how week progresses I have a feeling that everyone is missing the big picture on the ins and...

    Coaching Staff Past Coach: Matthew Knights - Finally gets his second shot - 5/5

    Re: Voice Your Disapproval of Knights I never said it was a successful apprenticeship, just that he had one, that was the only point I could pick you up on, everything you have written here I agree with, even how well his apprenticeship went. 1 thing is that he was handed a dud list, Sheedy...

    What have you learnt?

    This in not a topic about slattery - if it was we could also use words such as poor disposal, slow, not up to anything but a back pocket at best, always kicks or handballs sidewards or backwards, if we have a run and carry game plan people like him shut it down, brings no skills to the table at...

    Mark "Choco" Williams?

    Choco did alright in his only season at essendon in 1992, from memory won the flag and blooded a stack of the 1993 side that won a flag, hird, mercuri, misiti, calthorpe, hills, olarenshaw etc.. That type of form says might be worth a look at, but there are obstacles which need removal first.

    Coaching Staff Past Coach: Matthew Knights - Finally gets his second shot - 5/5

    Re: Voice Your Disapproval of Knights He selects the 22 tho, to drop T Slattery and Prismall when they were amongst the best against crows and play silly with Myers, Atkinson and others makes it hard for the 22. Our side whilst injuries have played some part is not the best available 22 at...

    Coaching Staff Past Coach: Matthew Knights - Finally gets his second shot - 5/5

    Re: Voice Your Disapproval of Knights You cant be a real supporter to say that. Whilst I hate what knights is doing, this is my team and I will always support the players who go out there, the 22 out there are trying (or should be) all the time. I dont agree with the 22 he selects but that...

    What have you learnt?

    1 Knights cant coach 2 Hurley is a Fullback 3 Neagle can play the game and should stay at FF 4 We miss Hille immensely 5 Lonergan is one speed and not that good - needs to go 6 Dyson is just like Lonergan 7 Stanton is the turnover king 8 Watson should not play at FF - he...

    Rnd 13: Changes Vs Hawks

    In - Talented Pace Out - List Cloggers Seriously are we going to lose another game cause knights wants to play his special friends. I am warming to his game plan but you cant say we need disposal and pace and promote H Slattery, Dyson, Welsh etc and drop Prismall, Atkinson and Collyer In...

    OUTS - Dyson, Slattery, Hocking, Welsh, Williams INS - McVeigh, Stanton, Monfries, Howlett and Neagle/Laycock Williams is a receiver and not a team player, celebrates his own goals instead of thanking those that gave it to him. If the weather is good Neagle/Laycock to play full forward with...

    Increase the Bench

    The rules would have to be worked out, but a calf injury can be faked, just like a hammy, its just my idea so games can be played out and the right result achieved. Sides with shorter benches are so disadvantaged in the modern game.
