Having finished 12th, 15th and 13th over the past three years the Bombers are in on field chaos. Add to that the fact that they were unable to secure the coach they wanted, a group of supporters are at war with their club, their two legends have walked away from the club and now the below internal bickering and leak. All indications are that the Bombers are in turmoil both on and off the field. Pencil them in for 16th.
'Dons begin witch-hunt

ESSENDON has launched an internal crusade to expose the official who leaked news that Neale Daniher had been overlooked for the vacant senior coaching position.
If found, the official faces the sack.
Daniher, who was one of three remaining candidates for the job, heard of his omission yesterday morning while eating breakfast and listening to the radio.
The Bombers are furious their plan to inform Daniher later in the day yesterday was hijacked by a big-mouth club staffer on Monday.
Club directors and senior officials were contacted yesterday by chief executive Peter Jackson.
Jackson was embarrassed for Daniher, whom he rated highly, and for the club.
He personally telephoned Daniher to apologise.'
