Training Pre-Season Training '25 - '26
Was at training on Friday. Caddy trained for just over half the session (warmups, ball movement and kicking drills) then put the runners on and did a few laps, half walking and half running. Looked good and powerful in the drills. McKay probably did half the session, then ran laps similarly... -
Recruiting AFL Draft Watch 2025 - Picks 9, 10, 13, 37
Pumped with all selections. Thought we might go for a defender with Huss waiting behind a bid, now with Kondog we have kinda bulked up all our lines in our areas of biggest weakness (big bodied mids, medium transition defender, small forward). Biggest thing is we have begun to address transition... -
Recruiting AFL Draft Watch 2025 - Picks 9, 10, 13, 37
Great for us that a few players have shot up the rankings. Will allow our top 10 picks to be worth lots to other clubs looking to trade up - even West Coast looking to drop down and give us a chance at Duursma. Or we could see a serious player fall to us in the hype should we keep picks. In... -

Shoutout to Gaylor and echoing on Ridewood and Belloni. All had real impacts and their futures look bright -
AFL Autopsy RND 24/2: Downed By The Suns
Well done Bomber fans for sticking through a terrible year. I wish the team plane got lost in the cyclone in Round 0 and we never had to play 2025. But we have unearthed a few good little players (Kako Clarke Roberts) that have the right attitude. I do believe in the vision and think that with a... -
Preview Round 19 - Essendon Bombers vs GWS Social Media Team - Thursday, July 17th 7:30pm - Marvel Stadium
Out: Martin, Hobbs, Setterfield, Goldy In: El Hawli, Shiel, Day Wicks, Vigo Bruh this is usually one of those games where we play out of our skin and miraculously win, but I don’t think that will happen this time around. Embrace the future, unfortunately we must focus on maximising picks and... -
AFL Autopsy RND 13: Done By the Bloos
Make no mistake Voss was coaching for his career last night and barely limped over the line. Couple balls bounce the other way and it would be a VERY different story today. Blues get their sugar hit percentage boosters playing cellar dwellers over the next fortnight but will ultimately fail... -
VFL Game Day Round 4, Port Melbourne v Essendon, ETU Stadium (Port Melbourne) 7:10pm (TELEVISED ON 7MATE)
Liked what I saw from Nguyen. When our defense was under the pump his attack on the footy, contest and speed was great. Tidy little player who could end up a handy small stopper in future.- Words: 36

Preview Round 2 - Essendon Bombers vs Adelaide Crows - Saturday March 22nd - 1:20pm at the MGC
Watched three quarters of the vfl practice match on Friday. Saad was quiet, often taking up space on the opposite wing drifting back. When he got it he used it well but it wasn’t a lot. Edwards took a couple grabs and kicked well. Gets back for one percenters and works hard up. Johnson was... -
AFL Autopsy One of the worst losses of the year vs weagles.
Frustrating but it's where we are at. A lot of 'almost'. So many missed tackles, opportunities, set shots. Actually not the worst thing after last week's win. At least the heat will be back on players + coaches. On to next week. Go Bombers -
Preview Round 7: Western Bulldogs vs Essendon, Docklands, Sunday 01/05/2022 @ 3:20 PM
Might seem like we have already reached "play the kids" stage, doom and gloom, but I think we've had our expectations set the wrong way for 2022. Thanks Malthouse. Hype put everyone's expectation way higher than what we are right now, and I think this might be the reset that we've needed. Reid... -
AFL Autopsy RND 6: Beaten by the Pies
Redman looked much better lurking through the middle - attacked the footy well. Merrett was super clean by foot. Stringer looked rusty but kicked 3. Draper beat Grundy for the majority of the game. Also Nic Martin is a jet. Turnovers kicking forward killed us. Can tell the coaches instructed... -
General Bombers Talk 2021 Crichton Medal | Winner: Zach Merrett | Runner-Up: Darcy Parish | 3rd: Will Snelling
I think rewarding Snelling for executing his role is the perfect embodiment of Truck and the coaching staff's blue-collar model. Shows that doing the team stuff will get you recognition and a consistent spot in the 22. Great for all the young kids coming through, kids who have come from much... -
Review 2021 Season Review - How do you rate it?
A Re-signed 3 out of the top 40 players in the comp to long-term deals. This should pretty much seal the A grade on its own. Not many expected us to retain Merrett, let alone develop the list-wide buy-in we've seen in '21. This was the goal out of 2021, and we surpassed it well and truly...
