Learnings are flankers don't make great mids. just took 18 years to realize this.

18 years of rebuilding has taken us from one of the hardest toughest teams to right now the softest I have ever seen. every 5 years the team becomes even softer, more outside to the point the players can't even tackle.

Still soft as butter, getting soft players like Zaharakis was, Parish, Merrett, Shiel, Heppell, Cutler, Ridley actually 80% of the players are or all the players Essendon have recruited for a decade now really shows. Toughness comes naturally you can't train it into them. They are all skinny...

Essendons last 18 years right there. Barnard Solomon Johnson Johnson Wallis Hardwick Wow Dodoro loves weak soft players.

Martin is as good on his left as his right leg, is the best kick at Essendon, Mercuri good. Can't believe how he was missed with his class and skill.

Just because a club is crap they shouldn't hand out picks. Get the recruiting and development right by having the right people, Father sons are awesome for all clubs, when you get a good one like Brisbane are about too good on them. Priority picks are plain wrong.

aren't they getting a gift in Culley, picks shouldn't be handed out.

Essendon is only 18 years into their rebuild

You can have Rutten back

2 Metre Peter is disadvantaged by playing at Essendon.

Another great trait Hobbs has is a knack for finding space and providing an option, his teammates just haven't been using him but soon will.

I think he bashed Mark Ricciuto at the pub, little bloke with lots of fight.

It's fair to say Ginnivan has been better than Daicos the last month, Daicos has consistency but Ginnivan is influencing games more.

Dusty the 2nd best Martin in the game

Yuck, Smith is playing but didn't want to play in the VFL so was taking a month off. Disgrace.

Lord is sub

Murphy lied to cover for Smith Smith doesn't want to play VFL Dodoro with no mid season pick

If Dodoro doesn't have a pick he should pack his bags.

Weak by Smith, doesn't want to play VFL

I'm looking forward to watching Martin and Newcombe go at it. Hobbs vs Ward in the middle would be fun but wont happen.

For me Scully is the interesting one, a player at 204cm who can kick and read the ball in the air. But Essendon is a mess, so why not just take the best available. Sad when watching the draft is more enjoyable than watching the spuds playing at Essendon.

Who are you wanting with the North pick?

Reminds me of L Thomas from North Melbourne a few years back. I couldn't stand him as a player.

Scully is impossible to judge right now, but after the state games and champs we will have a great indication at 204cm he could be very early.

Sadly for Essendon fans, Dodoro is more loved than all the Essendon players as they are all weak soft, front-running squibs. Otherwise injured, overweight or just leave. Dodoro has Bomber supporters hypnotized. 20 years of Dodoro, looking back what he has done has been horrendous.

Who are the leaders Hodge was talking about? Hird was a leader, we have no one even close.

Name all the Essendon players who are having a better season than Brodie. Clearly helps improve the team, we have played Ham, Smith, Shiel, Stringer on 1 leg, Cuttler, Hobbs in a pocket pretty bad to watch, He allows McGrath to go back instead of try and play the game Brodie actually does really...

How was he missed, took 1 practice game and Essendon supporters were up and about with him kicking 4, the St Kilda game getting 16 poss in a half, then 5 goals vs Geelong. How can talent like this slip through. Essendon hasn't picked a player this good with all it's top 10 picks in many years...

Brisbane for pick 16 would be interesting, not sure I want to lose McGrath but Brisbane have nothing to lose.
