Captain wanting desperately to get out. Assume he’s rightly stripped of the captaincy. Couldn’t imagine the relationship with the coach would be great.
All guesswork, but I’d be betting on it lingering for a long time.
Sorry, I should have specified that I meant at Essendon. It's one thing to miss out on a player, but I imagine it would be quite toxic for Merrett next year.
We haven't gone past any team. Expecting to be bad for a few years. I do think that from a list management perspective, we've been ruthless and fully accepted bottoming out, bringing in an unprecedented number of picks in a single draft, and possibly 2 top 10 picks (or even 5) next year. This...

Happy to concede on McIntosh and Graham’s inclusions this week. I thought both were excellent in the last quarter. Graham’s gut-running and coverage across the ground, and McIntosh’s contested mark, goal, and defensive 1-1’s
Isn't Tom Brown a HBF? I think that's where we're most settled in the ground, so maybe the reason as to why he hasn't been given his opportunity yet. It's still very much win now mode, and 5/7 has got us back in the hunt. I don't blame him for having more faith in the older guys at those...
