Still and Carlisle sound like a poor mans Hale and Pace, whilst Hurley would struggle one on one with Henry Slattery.

Listen to this informed poster, after all he has had to endure Warren Tredrea, Brett Ebert, Justin Westhoff, and it gets better, as the new star on the horizon is none other than Wobbie Gway.Gibbanator, I'm just wondering. Why is it that Essendon have 'no forwards' but Carlton have 'multiple forward options'? If you weren't a troll/idiot (still not 100% sure which) you'd realize that not only does Essendon also have 'multiple forward options' who are actually superior to Carlton's, but EVERY club in the AFL, the SANFL, the VFL, the WAFL, the Amateur leagues, the U12's and the development league have multiple forward options. The difference is some are good and some, for example Carlton's, are not up to the standard of the competition.
You are very silly.
Hawthorn was playing still playing John Barker and Ben Dixon up forward, and giving Buddy a run off the flank. We were playing Roughead as a Key Back as late as 2006.
Even if we gave him a game or 2 up forward in his early days, the majority of his football was certainly played in defence, ergo your attempt to compare the goal tallies of Neagle and Roughead are completely transparent and utterly laughable. You've yet to even try Neagle in defence FFS, you're saying he's not struggling?
Stop hurting yourself, it's not funny anymore...
Nah man, I was yelling "I WANT BLOOD!!!" after half time round 22.
"OUCH" is what I'm saying now after reading that stinging barb about what I was saying after half time round 22.
Get well soon, douche...
Typical tassie tool - when reality fails you just make crap up. Roughead was initially played forward & when it became obvious he wasn't physically ready yet you moved him back (on & off) to help his development. Like I said plenty of other forwards spend time in defence so its not a slight on Roughead but the comparrison stands that after only 20 games Neagle has been able to kick more goals than Roughead did. I'm not saying that it means that Neagle will be as good as Roughead but mearly pointing out the total stupidity of Hawthorn supporters bagging Neagle after only 20 games. He has struggled for fittness but for actual goal kicking (his main future role) he's actually performed better than many others. How about you list all the young forwards in the league who have kicked more goals in their 1st 20 games. There must be at least 2-3 in every other side isn't there
BTW Barker played 6 games in 2005 & 7 in 2006 (6 goals each year) so he was hardly holding anyone else back. Dickson was not a KP. Not real good at this are you?
well lucky for you guys nick stevens retired, otherwise come match-day between our two sides, your coaching staff would have needed to come up with something a little more creative than that.
Yarran - looked good in limited games
Kreuzer - had to shoulder the burden of number 1 ruck without support
Henderson - used in defence by Toss.

The forwardline is irrelevant when you've got the worst midfield in the league.
and his 6 touches per game?
I (and presumably the SCUM hierachy) am very interested in any ideas.
Having the worst forward line in the country is an absolute given to finish bottom 4.
If Williams knees do what is expected the Scum will go all year without kicking the ton, scrounge a few wins against shit teams, and finish where they belong.
Eddie Betts kicked more goals than Essendon's leading goal kicker this year.Why would they? You clearly have one of the better foward lines in the comp. Carlton on the other hand...
Who rucked for Essendon against Adelaide?Maybe your three other 'quality' ruckmen could also use it, seeing how they left Kruezer to ruck without any support.
Dear Santa,He's a pathetic ball-butchering squib that will be delisted in a year.
I wasn't the one who claimed I had 4, yes 4, quality ruckmen such as Gibbernator did, only to then turn around 5 mins later and say that Kruezer had to ruck without support lol.Who rucked for Essendon against Adelaide?
They wouldn't even get a game for the Blues.
A bed? They need a grave for Layc-ck's talent.

How do you build a Team around no backline and no Ruckmen. Now thats funny. Not to mention a Pea Heart on baller who couldn't get out the way of big bad Lloydy. Can see another Russell Morris here, spat out after an innocous tap on the face and moved on by the family club
Round 22 is always worth laughing, you just can't get over it. What a bunch of cry baby's. Oh boo hoo Campbell, and wasn't that tough "attack" on Lloyd by Bateman one of the more memorable one on ones you will ever see.
No Bradburies for you anymore, or bad kicking by the other side, Flags are earnt.
Lets see .............if we take Richo out of Richmond's forward line........what do we have left?
Nahas?
Oh dear.
Mate, Who was your highest goal kicker? Angus Monfries? Who exactly is that again? You have 1 player whos passed the 20 goal mark. We have 4. You along with North Melbourne & Fremantle have the crapest forward lines in the league.
