Brad Scott how long?

[Donflicted]

Anyone that follows the cult of James Hird, commonly referred to as the Essendon Football Club, knows that he will be back in 2027.

The great man has his acolytes in the top seats at the club and has positioned himself well in the media to knife Brad Scott just like he did to Matthew Knights.

If Dodoro isn't an immediate return in 2027, he will also be back in 2028.

If Dodoro comes back can i get a free pass to jump off this ship?

I dont even want Hird back but Dodoro imo did more damage to the club then the saga did

It boggles the mind that a club can have the same problem ( lack of defensive buy-in ) year after year , coach after coach , list build after list build for 15+ years

Suggests it not a coaching problem

We'll take some compo picks thanks Mr President

Losing breeds losing.
Essendon are like that country footy club we all know of who are never any good.

True but it’s always the same reason , over and over

Not sure how that happens

Time to shake it up a get a team of psycho takling potatoes who can’t kick to save themselves but smack the living shit out of everyone

Go from there

The blueprint for every great side is simple.

A decent ruckman than wins or at least halves the contests.
8 - 10 efficient midfielder types.
1 or 2 tall forwards that present well, take a grab or bring it to ground for the smalls or mids.

And pressure.

Essendon have had the wrong team balance for 20 years. We have just drafted several mids, so thats a positive.

I suppose if you ain't got the cattle what can you do, but this could very well be the year North Melbourne finally get that long awaited win over Essendon.

At that point the calls to bring the prodigal son back will probably go into overdrive. Between Brad Scott and Vossy which one is the more mediocre coach i wonder?

Eh, I wouldn't put it past us to bottle that. Yeah we're off to a good start but young emerging sides slip games like that all the time and we've been their grand final for a while, even before the rebuild really started. I need a bigger sample size before I start to get full confidence back.

I thought Essendon did alright for notable periods of the Hawthorn game. About as well as a rebuilding side can do against a top 4 contender. The first 1.5 quarters they stuck right with them and ran out the game pretty well when they could have just dropped their heads

I'm not saying it's right.
I'm not saying it's wrong.
I'm just saying it's the most Essendon thing ever, and in a few months the shrill screech of our rabid supporter base will be unavoidable.
Scott is a dead man walking.

A Geneation Alpha Essendon fan (born between 2010 and 2024) have lived their lives by not seeing their club win a Final

Brad Scott has set them back since Round 23, 2023

My god, the crazy bastards down at Essendon are going to do it aren’t they? I love this for them.

I thought we were rort brothers?

We were, but you’ve unfortunately chosen a different path now. A crazy path. But a path nonetheless.

Hird has died, Hird has risen, Hird will come again.

Come to us. We have big Drapes.

 

[Donflicted]

Come to us. We have big Drapes.

Hmmm tempting

 

[Tadpole]

Come to us. We have big Drapes.

It's curtains for you then.

 

[Elixuh]

It's curtains for you then.

We also have Cody Curtain on our list as well, this is very true.

 

[TheKanga]

They should have let Merrett go as he isnt winning them games anyway right now.
Get the draft picks and invest in future

 

[TheKanga]

He has a contract until the end of next season.

I hope we keep him to that and then move him on for a young up and coming coach. (Not hird)

If you guys did get Hird again it would be a joke
Way to much baggage there...

Scott isnt perfect but isnt a bad coach got us to two prelims but he doesnt currently have the list.

 

[Cam Payne]

I for one hope they extend Bad Scott into infinity.

Go away Sheeds

 

[Peters_Nuts]

That game against North in round 3 is looking ominous...

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

This list is abysmal.

Absolutely shocking.

Wtf was Dodoro doing for all of those years?

Stealing a wage then has the nerve to sue the club because he got sacked for doing a piss poor job.

Getting rid of this fraud is the best thing the club has done in 20 years the club might now have a chance at bulding a proper list under Matt Rosa
