Suprised there isn't a thread already to discuss our season overall.
Looking at ladder position this season feels like a fail but on the other hand we have won the same amount of games as 2017 so we're on par.
All in all the last 3 and half months I haven't seen Essendon play as good as football that they did in 10 years +, if the players can build from the back half of this year and realise that hard work will be rewarded for 2019.
Our list I feel it's in a great place, majority of our important players in our best 22 are 25 or under bar Heppell, Hooker and Hurley, the younger ones will develop even more. I just hope when Joey is back in the team he leads up to the ball being kicked inside 50, none of this waving for the ball long hoping to wrestle or jump on the defenders head which he does too often.
