    Was josh p Kennedy the best ever trade ??

    Add to this the Swans had just signed John Murphy a star centreman with Fitzroy. What the hell were they doing still chasing Nifty Neville - who they didn't need ? Turn the clock forward a few years - Anthony Daniher was approached by Essendon - the Swans found out about it and the Dons were...

    Was josh p Kennedy the best ever trade ??

    Josh Kennedy was always a work in progress at Hawthorn - fairly typical of many young players. I still can't believe that Hawthorn would trade him anywhere - especially if you compare son to father who, I seem to recall, took a while to develope into the great player he became. What a tacky way...

    Toast Joe Daniher - Ran 2k's in under 7 minutes

    Re: Joe Daniher - "Ox" rates him #1 in this year's draft Joe Daniher is a Number 1 pick - I reckon they'll give him the number ONE gurnsey as well. He sounds like a Paul Salmon type to me.

    Who is this player Hird speaks of..?

    No, it couldn't have been Denham. He wasn't like that. Don't you know our players ? Only one was conceited enough to say that - CALTHORPE.

    Josh Toy for Cale Hooker Trade

    Hooker has had a year bedeviled with injuries - he missed large portion of the season. Had a breakout season last year, but needs some luck with injury in 2012. If such a swap is on - grab it Dons, Toy-boy would be a great "get" for us. Local boy,too.

    Assessing Hird

    I have to agree. Sheedy failed to clean out our list and look what happened ? I would like to see some changes, although I think there will be a bigger change of personnel NEXT season in preparation for what is supposed to be a super draft. Davies is one who time is about up, as are Spike and...

    Review What Do You Like/What Do You Hate About The BF Essendon Board?

    Re: What Do You Like/What Do You Hate About The Essendon Board? There was gossip around a few months back that Beverly Knight was standing down - she has been on the EFC Board since 1993 - but apparently not so. Surely it's time she went ? Perhaps our Board could consider fixed terms (6...

    Phantom Draft Snoops Annual Mock Draft..

    I'd be very surprised if Essendon doesn't choose a ruckman for their PSD pick. Chris Molitor from West Adelaide is training with the club, and Josh Jenkins is another who might get the nod. Jenkins is the one I believe we'll pick.

    Quayle's view on this draft IF it was "uncompromised"

    Plus, Reimers is a real talent who just needs some luck with injuries and perhaps needs to mature emotionally as well. I LOVE watching him play.

    My phantom

    Can't agree with all those mid-fielders for Essendon. We need another key forward - someone who can play full forward, and we may be looking for another tall to develope over the next few years in the ruck. Personally I wouldn't go for a ruckman this time around, but as well as the mid-field...
