    Adrian Dodoro: Football’s Biggest Fraud IMO

    You're making the choice to read the posts, social media, text messages, news articles, etc. If you're "tired of it", you're in control, make the decision to avoid it. You're choosing to live and breathe it.

    Autopsy AFL 2021 Round 15 - Bombers v Demons Sat June 26th 7:25pm EST (MCG)

    More good signs from the Bombers, such a nice feeling watching a competitive team. Needs refinement and polish but by gheeee it's exciting to be an Essendon supporter again

    Autopsy AFL 2021 Round 12 Dreamtime - Essendon v Richmond Sat June 5th 7:40pm EST/5:40pm WST (Optus Stadium) Tigercast And Bombers Podcast Links in OP!

    The good signs were there again...and that's all the matters, we aren't a horse shit side anymore with nothing to be optimistic about and let me tell you, that feels amazing! A gassed team getting slapped by a gun team at the end isn't a bother, that will hurt this team more than any other...

    AFL Autopsy Rnd 12: Loss to the Tigers

    We were gassed and a good team ran over the top of us, not a big deal in the grand scheme. All of the good signs were there again. We're desperate for a big strong defender.

    Traded Adam Saad [traded to Carlton with #48 and #78 for #8 and #87]

    Adam Saad aside...I'm not bothered with the speculation of what we'll get for him, I disagree with this theory. The draft was historically designed to provide teams with the opportunity to pick the "7th best player in the pool". That "7th" best player as deemed by the club was guaranteed...

    Traded Adam Saad [traded to Carlton with #48 and #78 for #8 and #87]

    According to the Fox Sports article posted a few pages ago it appears Saad's role on game day played a big part of the decision. Carlton are happy to give him the attacking freedom he wants, Essendon aren't. I think the culture issues Saad refers to are some players are onboard with Rutten's...

    Toast 2021 Leadership Group - Heppell (captain), Hurley, Merrett, McGrath (joint vice-captains)

    Keep Heppell as captain...prior to his recent run of injuries he was the only player who'd consistently run hard both ways...need your captain setting that standard. He'll get back to where he was and if he doesn't after an extended injury-free run at it, then you consider other options.

    AFL Autopsy Loss to The West Coast

    Quite a few of our Tallls choose to mark instead of going full tilt at the spoil! They back themselves in but they misjudge it too often. They need to get better and choosing when to mark and when to spoil.

    Free Agent 2: Sam Draper - Off to Brisbane as a free agent

    First player in a long time who has genuine mungrel in him! Now to find another 3 to 4.

    Preview Round 15: West Coast vs Essendon, Gabba, Tuesday 01/09/2020 @ 8:10 PM AEST

    IN: Draper, Hurley, Heppell OUT: Phillips, Stringer (managed), Ham Stringer didn't look great in the FB feed of today's training session. Only kicking on his left and looked ginger. Hooker forward. BZT back. Heppell to the wing.

    Preview Round 14: Hawthorne vs Essendon, Adelaide Oval, Thursday 27/08/2020 @ 4:40 AEST

    IN: Hooker, Daniher, McKenna, Fantasia OUT: Francis, Bellchambers, Begley, Ham Throw caution to the wind...it won't happen. I just wanted to type it.

    AFL Autopsy RND 13: Loss to the Tigers

    Our midfield pressure was better which impacted the quality of their inside 50s. Lots of positive signs. Bellchambers competed in the air but he's a such liability. Would like Phillips given that role if JD decides to put the que in the rack and not play in 2020. Feel sorry for Stringer...

    Retired # 5: Devon Smith - Hanging up the boots - Thanks for everything Devon! - 12/8

    Finally...where the **** has this been. Played a different role tonight and did it very well, his tackling was back too.

    Autopsy AFL 2020 Round 13 - Bombers v Tigers Sat August 22nd 7:45pm AEST (TIO Stadium, NT) Match Highlights in OP

    Umpiring spoiled Essendon's momentum twice...but it's Essendon's response to those shit decisions that's the real problem. Good teams say **** it, and double down... Essendon switch off and often let through 3 to 4 quick ones. Been a problem for a while.
