Hi Adrian.

 

[Don Won]

What exactly has the list achieved (and AD's first round picks in particular) so far?

At 9.32pm on Saturday night he had assembled a top four list.

That is coaching and development, Dodoro has given them the tools, they keep letting him down

how deep does this rabbit hole go?

 

[Hird05]

Not enough flankers imo

 

[fairbump_playon]

Not enough flankers imo

Needs more Jordan Houlahan

 

[Kong]

Not enough flankers imo

could use a few more key defenders too

When does this thread title get changed to Premiership list building genius Adrian Dodoro?

Is it after we roll GWS by 10 goals this weekend?

It's a good thing I didn't read this post before telling you I wanted you on the podcast because I liked your posting.

Hope the greatness of this legend is being celebrated

Clearly you think we're in the business of winning a few games by small margins against bottom 8 teams early in the season. Most of us here care about winning when it matters but I'm glad this season has been enjoyable for you.

The reality is that we have the worst % of any team in the 8 by a long way, and the teams we have beaten are all outside the 8. It is very unlikely we are a good team.

Every year, we have a solid run of wins (despite being shit) and every single year, people like yourself are easily convinced and start singing Dodo’s praises prematurely.

I for one am going to enjoy it while it lasts, and milk every last drop. (Then disappear when things get tough). It is The Way.

Hasn't this season been enjoyable for you? How about the fact that this thread and the 2024 draft thread are about 3 or 4 pages in and not at the top of the Essendon board. This thread is now just for shits and giggles. What does that say about our list? What about Sammy Durham? What about the fact that Essendon and the Essendon 34 are going to be exonerated, Jobe will get his brownlow back and wada will be excoriated from sporting history?
What a time to be alive!

It was a joke. Don’t think it was intended as one though. But who knows.

 

[ydc55]

Was in the room filming the club song.
Not sure what his role is.
Maybe savouring a moment.

 

[Old Campaigner]

Just filming the top 4 list he built

 

[MarkJohnson#1]

Jet recruiter. Been severely let down by the entire board, football department and coaching staff over the journey. We’ll probably win a final or flag soon and it will be put down to him stepping down from the role rather than the list he created with the cards he was dealt…

It's hard to know what happens next

I'm no Dodoro fan. I feel like he's made a few hero calls along the way, the list has often been unbalanced, and he has never been ahead of where the game is going.

However, I do find it funny that after the last few years of copping it, he will suddenly be sleeping well because the the list is looking pretty handy right now.

Also, sorry I got the margin wrong!

 

[Rick Ross]

Another dawn that may be false or may be real. Do think list is looking better than recent history*.

Hard not to forget 20 years of failure and unbalanced lists. Dodoro may / may not have the crux in that, but he was a key part of the football department in that time. Very small tick for him after 20 years of not…



*Recent history is a low bar set by Dodoro.

 

[ydc55]

Just filming the top 4 list he built

He is being paid good coin to work in recruiting and is in fanboy mode in the rooms.
I am a grumpy old man but he is everything wrong with our club even with a thimble full of success.
You would never see Stephen wells, kinnear beatson or Simon dalrymple do this.

 

[DERO]

The architected of our most recent success and we want to get rid of him?

He is a guru and is still not too late to keep him.
