I think if Essendon become a top 4 team its evidence enough Shiel was the right move. Go all in.
I think internally they probably don't believe they are true contenders.
In the NBA, it's well known a team's overall record from previous season, is a far better indicator than their streak to end a season...which people often give too much weight to.
I daresay that is the error people are making with Essendon. Even with Shiel I dont rate their midfield. Shiel Heppell Merrett is still meh.

Dons are a tanented outfit, if they have a little luck keeping Daniher on the park they’ll be banging the door down to the top 4.
