Will Mark Mercuri Survive the end of year cull

[WCE2000]

Although he is in the top 5 players at Essendon, in terms of pure talent, hell, hes in the top 5 in the AFL for pure talent, he has had a very ordinary year indeed.

He has the potential to be a HUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEE drawcard in he trade season, definetaly worth a round 1 and 2 pick (probably more). With you guys needing to make room for the salary cap, i would think that Mercuri could defeinetaly be under pressure to retain his spot.

Ah, his signed a 5 year deal this year. Fortunatley he won't be going anywhere. robert walls, the clown that he is, suggested a while back that we trade him. His had one off year, that's all.

[WCE2000]

for essendon's sake hopefully it is just one off year, because they could be rueing that 5 year deal if he doesnt get back to his best.

Also, from a fans point of view, hes close to the best player to watch in the AFL, so itll be good to see him back at his best (just not against us).
