As posted on the Bombertalk forum:
we really do have some knowledgable fans dont we ????

"Boris I dont know. The kangas definitely have a good list so that would explain how Rawlings doesn't get a game. But he wouldn't get a game with our reserves! Wayne Carey though, that's another matter. Imagine having a genuine classy forward target at the club. And one who is as tough as him. You could just about play Lloyd on the bench!

I still reckon Rama for maybe a 1-2 year defender like Graham or even Tim McGrath would be awesome. I'll look up Rawlings now on the AFL site and see if he has anything to offer. he does appear taller than rama which is a plus.

how about solomon for calthorpe if we're talking roos? back under sheeds bullet could be a matchwinner again.
your thoughts?"

"Calthorpe? Interesting. He certainly had patches of brilliance last year. Those forst 2 or 3 games he was instrumental in some of North's best forward moves, but what else would you expect from a former Bomber right? But from all reports, it seems tricky Ricky Olerenshaw is back to his premiership winning best. I'd love to see him back in the Red and Black. Not sure about Soloman though. I'd personally offload one of the Johnsons. Probably Jason."

"I agreee and i dont. There is the delicate fibre of a club, but then you have to break an egg to make an omelet! we got caned for letting cummings go, wanga left us and everyone wondered about the fish trade.. and which club came up a winner in those deals? so if were gonna improve, it means looking at the list OBJECTIVELY.

we have the johnos, mercs, misiti, hirdy etc.. solomon and rama are expendable. imagine getting McGrath and daryl White for those too! Defensive steel and flair"

I was going to mention this thread as well Arch. Can't think of an Essendon supporter alive that would make comments like those. I seem to remember some more comedic posts in that thread, did you just take the cream of the crop?

couldve copied more but why bother, I think that summed it all up- Im pretty sure the whole thing was some sort of piss take (god I hope)- what makes it so funny is the serious tone it was written in though.

I think that poster was being sarcastic and taking the piss out of everyone or they forgot to take their medication.
