Thoughts?

1. McVeigh and McPhee is one word. There's no gap between Mc and Veigh.

2. Good luck with Yarran and Jetta becoming elite midfielders within three years. Doubt that will happen... especially with Jetta, and you haven't even got Yarran yet.

3. What a horrible defense. Would get absolutely smashed by the best forwards in the business week in and week out.

4. The world would end the day "Premiership player" and "Jason Laycock" was ever used in the same sentence.

You'd hope you get some decent kids in the 09, 10, and 11 drafts before that.

Shh...maybe no one has noticed yet?!

So you decided to troll your own club?

 

[kira]

go blow your trumpet on an essendon board

 

[serenityNow]

Thanks.


Im always up for a laugh.

Everyone team has one i suppose.

It's only Carlton that needs to spend their first pick on a tall defender.

Essendon are fine for tall backs.

That's what I keep reading.

The centreline and onballers are almost laughable when the OP has put McVeigh in the backpocket and Stanton on the bench.

C - Dempsey, Watson, Lovett
Foll - Hille, Jetta, Yarran

 

[Neville Bartos]

It actually looks like a pretty decent team... if your aiming for 11th

Lots of Essendon fans have an obsession with young players and seem to think that once a player is older then 27 they are complete hacks.

Ah well I suppose every club has 'em

 

[j-ham]

You might want to find a ruckman to help Hille out.

 

[relapse]

If you had

coach: M Knights

this thread would become joke of the year

 

[Jesse Custer]

We deserve all the crap we get after this thread.

Oh well, every club has idiots.

Very true.
And the 2012 flag is already sown up, and is heading North to our trophy cabinet. The AFL will never again allow for a start up club to be such an epic failure as were Fremantle, and even more so (just) the Brisbane Bears.

I guess on the flipside its good to be confident but its a fine line before it becomes delusional.

Unfortunately, this over-blown n00b has a point. Although the GC will not win the flag, with all their concessions they will be mighty hard to stop reaching the top 8 (or 9 or 10 or 53-whatever Vlad decides to have)

 

[Dominator_7]

Yeah... coz Essendon will only get better as a team after Lloyd, Lucas and Fletcher all retire... Won't Hille be on his last legs by then as well ?

And to think someone on here told me a few days ago that Bummers fans arent deluded...

Should try being delusional sometime Centurion. THe weather is great.

Ofcourse we will get better with the injection of young blood. Gumbleton, Neagle, Ryder have those positions covered.

I'd look at your one dimensional over rated mob if i were you. Whats after your top 6 players ? Absolutely sweet FA.

Carlton - the most overrated and morally inept football side in history.

Have a wank.

Have a wank.

Thats what he was doing obviously, one hand on the sausage and one hand on the keyboard.
