    SALADA/VladFL: Slap on the wrist. - STRICTLY ESSENDON SUPPORTERS ONLY

    Cannot believe the amount of imbeciles prepared to pontificate on these subjects without the slightest idea of what the report contains. It is really pathetic seeing people begging for Essendon to go down. Some of the vitriol has been nothing short of heinous. One thing is for certain, no...

    SALADA/VladFL: Slap on the wrist. - STRICTLY ESSENDON SUPPORTERS ONLY

    Anyone see this? @ChrisStubbsFOX 33m Heard the AFL's '1st offer' for Ess is no finals, Jobe loses Brownlow and no 1st rd draft pick for 3 years! Players escape. Imagine that! That's an unequivocal embarrassment that a Fox Sports presenter would put that in the public domain. I seriously...

    News The Mcveigh Interview

    Hey guys, I have been contacted by a former Essendon player, who played in the 2012 season, (don't bother PMing because I'm not going to divulge the details) who agreed "100%" with Spike's sentiments and speculated it's a ploy by Reimers to keep his name in the headlines.

    All Australians 2013?

    Watson, Goddard, Fletcher, Dempsey and Stanton are all guys that should put their names forward. Ryder, Hurley, Crameri and Zaharakis are good enough if they stay on the park to make the 40 man squad. Really tough to call so far out from the start of the season.

    Dayle Garlett - Overlooked

    From AFL.com.au OMG! IT'S BACK ON! It's all guess work at this stage guys. When you see a solid quote from a person connected within the club, then you can rejoice/panic/whatever.

    Traded #3: Scott Gumbleton - Traded to Fremantle for pick 55

    It's hamstring tightness. Not a big deal. They wouldn't have THAT much training left before Christmas anyway. If it happens again next year when the real stuff starts it'll be a different story.

    If Collingwood and Carlton played in the 2013 GF, who would you rather win?

    How can you even mention Carlton players as douches when Collingwood have a myriad of Dbags. Swan, Cloke, Beams, H.Shaw, Didak. That's only five. Not to mention HarryO, the most self-righteous cockbag of all time.

    If Collingwood and Carlton played in the 2013 GF, who would you rather win?

    Eddie McGuire supersedes any criticism you could possibly have of Carlton. That man alone single-handedly makes Collingwood impossible to like.

    Traded #17: Jake Melksham - Traded to Melbourne for pick 25

    The kid has been skinny as rake for a while now and asked to shoulder the bulk of the midfield load. To say he's no better than Christensen is laughable. Of the guys named, only a handful are ahead of him. Trengrove has not shown anymore than Melksham to be honest, and I'd take him every day...

    Retired #18: Matthew Lloyd - Diagnosed with Bell's Palsy - 15/3

    I was at the game when he did the hamstring, right in front of where I was actually. I didn't think there was much in it. He was on absolute fire at the start of that season if I remember correctly too.

    Mega Thread 2012 List Management: Part II

    Not one on those players was even a first round pick. Swan and Goodes were 58 and 43 respectively. Jack was pick 57 of the rookie draft.... No-one drafts elite players, that's a wildly inaccurate thing to say, and to completely write off bringing in elite talent via trading is equally as...

    Broughton for Gumbleton would be highway robbery. No way Fremantle would allow it to happen.

    Traded #3: Scott Gumbleton - Traded to Fremantle for pick 55

    The astucious nature in which Fremantle would acquire Gumbleton through less than scrupulous means may be shrewd list management from the Dockers, but Essendon should stymie their efforts if that was the avenue they wish to use.

    Traded #3: Scott Gumbleton - Traded to Fremantle for pick 55

    If Freo talked Gumbleton into the PSD I'd love Essendon to take him prior to their pick. Absolute dog act making a player walk.

    People saying Jobe was a bad kick are incorrect. His technique was always sound he just lacked the confidence to use the ball by foot. If there's a ball drop deficiency or another fundamental error in the kicking action of a player it's almost impossible to correct.

    Jesse White has requested a trade

    A late pick, around the fourth round would suffice? I think a club like Richmond or St.Kilda who could use a pinch-hitting big man should take a serious look at him.

    Jesse White has requested a trade

    He is not crap at all. Made the NEAFL team of the year in the ruck and looked great as almost the sixth on-baller through the middle. Linked up well, looked speedy for his size and used the ball well. For teams looking for a versatile big man who can send time in the ruck and up forward he'd...

    Retired #18: Michael Hurley 🐻 - Staying on in a coaching and player welfare role! - 3/10

    Hurley just needs to stay injury-free. When he got a decent run at it mid-season he kicked 6 against Freo and 5 against the Dogs in as many weeks.

    Not to mention Melksham and Winderlich. Midfield wise I don't think Essendon is as badly placed as many people make out. Zaka was a huge loss this year, and Winderlich adds a rotation too. Melksham had a disappointing year progression wise but I think he can still play an integral part in our...

    Essendon's hands were tied considering he's a free-agent. We were lucky to get anything for him. For what it's worth though I agree Wellingham for #17 is excessive.
