    Which team list would you least want?

    You could do a negative take like this on most teams: Ceglar is 29, Mcevoy is 30, Frawley 31, Patton continues to get injured, Hartley has failed to be be a regular player for two teams, etc. Draper continues to be struck down with injury? I thought he was recovering well from his ACL? Hooker...

    Which team list would you least want?

    It is hard to predict what will happen from season to season let alone years from now. But currently I would rate North Melbourne, Saints and Adelaide the worst. Gc and Carlton are a bit higher because of all the highly rated kids, but it remains to be seen just how good they are. Then there is...

    Which two teams will drop out of the 8 next year and why?

    We made finals without much output from Daniher. He played four games for two wins, and he didn't do a lot in those wins. So unless Daniher is even worse than that next season, we should improve with him. Essendon is the most likely team to drop out of the eight, but I am not convinced by any...

    The Association Football AFL Thread

    When the AFL clubs were polled before the 2016 AFL draft about who they would choose with the #1 pick, about half said McGrath and the other half Mcluggage. I don't think any clubs recruiters said they would of chosen Taranto. This line of thinking is so dumb anyways. It's like me saying: Dow...

    Adrian Dodoro: Football’s Biggest Fraud IMO

    I actually think Carlton should of targeted him. Besides Cripps you don't have many true inside mids (like the Bombers). Players like Ed Curnow, Kreuzer and even Murphy are ranked highly at Carlton for clearances/contested possessions/tackles etc. They won't be around for much longer, so I see...

    Recommitted Darcy Parish [re-signed]

    Could be biased but I have Parish comfortably ahead. It is tougher for Mcdonald though as he plays for a side in contention for the spoon.

    Recommitted Darcy Parish [re-signed]

    How long will Luke Mcdonald last on your list? As long as Hansen did? Pick 5 on Parish isn't ideal, but I would rather him over those two.

    Draft Review 2016 - Revisiting the 2016 AFL Draft

    His prediction was basically that a pick 22 will feature in many peoples top 20 lists in the future. So who cares if similar posts are made multiple times for Essendon players? It is a pretty conservative opinion and I still have no idea why you felt the need to call it out.

    Draft Review 2016 - Revisiting the 2016 AFL Draft

    These players have only been in the system a couple of years. What would be the point of judging them purely on what they have produced thus far for this thread? Two years is not enough time to get a realistic idea of their potential (especially KPPs). I mean look at Lewis Taylor vs Bontempelli...

    Draft Profile Darcy Parish

    Darcy might be a bit vanilla but has always looked capable when playing as an on-baller. Trouble is he is similar to a few of our existing mids and we are now getting Shiel. It's not like he has to 'improve markedly' to not become 'trade bait' - that isn't the case at all, as he has shown plenty...

    List Mgmt. Our Midfield

    We could do with another inside mid sure, but it's a misconception that it is a real weakness. I would rather balanced mids than pure inside mids myself. Unless they are very dominant like Cripps etc and those are hard to find. I just looked at clearances per game from last season. Essendon has...

    List Mgmt. Our Midfield

    Hello friend. You seem to be a bit confused so I thought I would help you out. Mcgrath played majority of the time on a wing in 2018. He also played midfield a lot at junior level. McGrath, Parish, Langford and hopefully Redman are poised to break out in 2019 after developing nicely last season...

    Traded Dylan Shiel [traded with future 2nd to Essendon for #9 and future 1st round pick]

    If you think Shiel is bad you are going to be swearing a lot watching Dom Tyson next season. I would rather Gaff or Josh Kelly in a moon boot over him.

    Prediction Who will finish higher - Melbourne, Essendon, Adelaide or Hawthorn

    In round 19 2017 when Melbourne were fighting for a spot in the top 8 in a close season, they lost to 15th placed North Melbourne by 4 points. You then lost to 13th placed Collingwood in the last round to end your finals hopes. If that isn't going missing/buckling under pressure when it counts I...
