Summed up nicely. Carlton have improved on last year although last night was their only impressive win of the season. That said anything is possible in September and no team in their right mind would take them lightly in a finals game. Too much talent in the midfield and when everything clicks...

90 min is too long. Strength and muscle building sessions should last no longer than 45. That doesnt take into account warming up/ cooling down etc however. It should involve 1-2 compound lifts (squat, bench, cleans etc) and assistance work. Thats how NFL guys and most athletes train. Not...

Right now Collingwood but I wouldnt expect that to be the case in a couple of years. Alot of people underrate Ports and Adelaides KPP and I reckon in a couple of seasons they will have best KPP. I also reckon my own mob will be up there in terms of KPP. Melbournes arnt too bad either but they...

Dumbest thing I have read. A strong North, Demons, Dogs or Power has no way the same impact on the AFL than a strong Essendon. You seriously have no clue.

Could it have been handled better? Hell yes Does it make a difference? Hell no Bombers time was up at Geelong. He brought them 2 flags which they hadnt seen in 44 years but the reality is he needed to be moved on or move him himself which is exactly what has happened. As far as...

Wouldnt make a difference. They play just as good interstate as they do at the G

As bad as Essendons year was we still only finished 6 points behind the Dees and beat more top 8 teams than they did. That said the AFL clearly wants Melbourne to play finals nex.t season and has gifted them the easiest of draws. Oh and their midfield sh*ts all over ours. Melbourne to...

Id be fairly certain Pears will make it. Bit unfair to judge him on a season in which he broke he forearm and damaged his pancreas

The problem is most of our plodders are contracted and therefore cannot be offloaded and sure as hell arnt worth anything more than a pick 60 which is useless in a comprimised draft. Id expect a much larger cleanout next season after Hird and Co have seen what each guy is and isnt capable off.

Considering we have beaten in the last two years a large chunk of top 8 teams and lost to a large chunk of bottom 8 teams its hard to say where we will end up. Personally I reckon somewhere between 6 and 10 wins depends on a few factors 1) How well the new coaches go as well as how long it...

:thumbsu: With the exception of GC and GWS they are the biggest charity cases in the land. While I would have thought their numerous top 20 picks would have been enough to land them in the 8, their draw basically guarentees it.

Fk me your a sensitive little girl. I would have thought after apologising not once, but twice you would have accepted my apology and been done with it. Apparently not. But please continue to carry on whining about my comments and continue to call Essendon supporters arrogant. Cause you know...

For what its worth, I have never been a fan of Richmond. Hell I remember crying as a kid in 95 when Knights tore us a new one in the finals. However, Ill be extremly pi$$ed if you guys lose a young talent to either the gold coast or GWS. Richmond for all their faults have managed to stay in a...

Considering the emergence of Freo and the fact we have had a hard draw, being 4-5 isnt all that bad. In reality we shouldnt have lost to Power and should be 5-4. I think what was so concerning was the way we actually played against Collingwood, Freo and West Coast. Very, very uninspiring

Re: Time's up for Neagle+Laycock? I think Laycock will stay. We all know how important ruckman are and although we have Bellchambers you really need 4 ruckman. I know we have Bock but he is light years away from putting on 10kilos, let alone getting a senior match. Id think it would be...

Gee your gonna insult me about my last flag being won 10 years ago? Think about that for a second. But like I said in my last post, apologies if that offended any of the hardcore Demons supporters as that wasnt my intention.

Ok I didnt actually intend to offend any of the loyal Melbourne supporters with that comment. It was a dig at the bandwagoners. Apologies if that was taken the wrong way.

100% correct and I think its only going to get worse over the next few years as your list develops into premiership contenders. The fact is you have been gifted a tremendous list of young talent through the draft system plus Scully and Trengrove through tanking. While this was happening many...

Dont really post here much but do read the forums regulary and just wanted to say congratulations on today and please dont take much notice of the whiny Bomber fans losing their marbles. Every supporter base has them! Yes im devasted to have lost today when I really believe we should have...

Re: ins and outs vs carlton Id be very suprised if you guys make many changes. Not that we needed any help in looking terrible, but you guys did a real good job of it! Best of luck for the seaosn and I hope you absolutely belt the blues next week!

Its about as worse as it gets. Will be a long, long year! Im still excited about our young tall prospects, but we clearly need some quality midfields and a better coach. First time poster here guys...hope to have some good conversations with some Essendon faithful!!
