Pt2: Adrian Dodoro: Football’s Biggest Fraud IMO

[MisterMarcus]

Look, it's not Dodoro's fault. Everyone knows that the last few drafts have been heavily compromised.

He can't be blamed because the Northern teams get first dibs on every skinny undersized half-back flanker....

mckay and Gresham are awful deals so early on

Got Gresham for nothing.

Gresham is just out of fringe player territory and has been overrated his entire career. Barely best 22 and a 350k player, no more.

 

[The_Steadier]

Got Gresham for nothing.

850k a year for makay and 700k a year for gresham.

Adrian truly is the undefeated champion of trade week.

The problem is the coach- always was, always will be.

For nothing picks wise.

The 700k contract is laughable but then again we were paying him more?

His manager is elite as they come.

 

[Lavender Bushranger]

I'm not paying them any compliments here.

You kind of are.

Playing finals and occasionally making top 4 is pretty decent. Especially when you're sitting outside the 8 after R20 and haven't won a final in a decade or whatever.

 

[Lavender Bushranger]

With days like today i think of the below!

Haha. And the two lickspittles nodding in agreement next to him!

 

[Lavender Bushranger]

Some ITK poster on our board says he isn't pulling he strings yet the same players are picked year in year out.

Awful coincidence that the last 8 coaches all priorities small inside mids with poor foot skills.


If the club was serious about doing anything they would walk him out on Monday but the EFC is too gutless

It's weird. When Essendon are winning, there always seems to be a random Herald-Sun article bob up that suggests that Dodoro is still pulling the strings behind the scenes.

When they're losing, there's no mention of him.

Would you want the Essendon media pumping up your club. They are fanboys. Barely more objective than the cheer squad.

 

[Gavin Excell]

Why would anyone at Essendon continue to support Dodoro?

My suspicion is that Dodoro has buddies in the media.

It was just too convenient that when Essendon looked great early in the year, articles appear reminding everyone that he's still the one pulling the strings.

They have all made millions together in land deals. Ultimate boys club. Ultimate.

That makes sense (if true)

 

[Lavender Bushranger]

That makes sense (if true)

It's fact isn't it?

Bomber Thompson syndicate poised to sell Armstrong Creek site for $32m

A group of investors, including former Geelong and Essendon football coach Mark Thompson, and the family owned Casey Group, is poised to sell the 16-hectare Armstrong Creek Town Centre site near Geelong for a price understood to be in excess of $32 million.

I think Welsh was involved somehow too.

 

[Gavin Excell]

And Dodoro part of this investment group?

 

[windyhill]

That makes sense (if true)

Vice President Welsh one of the biggest beneficiaries. As if he’s going to pull the pin on this utter clown.

 

[10571z]

The entire joint needs a clean out.. Why they insist on having the same people who fail time after time is beyond me

 

[FrankGrimes]

And Dodoro part of this investment group?

yes he was..

Probably why more heat isn't applied

 

[janty]

I'm very surprised that a top 4 team with a percentage of under 100 finally got exposed.

 

[windyhill]

I like Scott, but as we all know, if it’s like this in 12 months time he will be looked at. It’s how football works. So dodoro will see off ANOTHER coach and let’s be honest, he still has a hard on for bloody hird just like that imbecile sheedy.

Remember like two months ago when Ben McKay was apparently the greatest acquisition in the history of ever?

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Only teams with worse percentage are Eagles, north and tigers. Somes up where Essendon are at.

Early AA contender (according to bombers supporters) Ben Mackay last seen being carved up by cammitti just tops off the absurdity of $900k+ and pick 3 compo to north.

I'm not anti-Scott, but...

He spends a lot of time trying to sound clever and make deep and profound statements in the media.

It's really annoying. It's almost like he trying to convince us that he's really smart.

I hope he keeps it more simple for the players.
