News Essendon falls apart again

[Mofra]

Chief Football Writer at the Herald-Sun was just never a big enough gig for the genius of Mark Robinson.

I for one hail President Robbo and look forward to his glorious reign.

He's chipping away in the background like the hird arse kisser he'll always be.

He's slurring away in the background like the hird arse kisser he'll always be.

Fixed.

Thank god he not chief football writer anymore right now he would be publishing articles everyday of why Hird needs to come back

Mate, his entire coaching philosophy revolves around drugs.

He identified 'high performance' as Essendon's number 1 issue only weeks ago, without even a hint of self-awareness.

Remember that the catlyst for Essendon's drug program was his belief that other teams had drugs programs. Once you have adopted the mentality that everyone is on drugs, then the only way you can compete with them is to take them too.

He is an obsessive narcissist who will do 'whatever it takes'.

AFL has to step in here and I'll leave it at that.

I actually feel bad for sensible supporters like yourself.

When it is so obvious to anyone without bkinkers on... and you sit there and watch the same mistakes over and over.

Picks 4, 5 and 8 probably incoming as well as compo for Draper we all know will be rigged to be band 1 so 4 picks in the top 10.

You can get 2 of the best mids a forward and a defender and with Scott having the extra year, 2026 is a growth year and 2027 is when you push.

But the chicken littles csnt wait and want to torch everything to some unknown goal.

The problem for Essendon this years draft is absolutely not one you want to be loading up in bad luck similar to the last time they had multiple early picks

 

[The Casey Cat]

No, it's because we don't have Chris' list.

True but that's what you get for persevering with Dodoro for a remarkably stupid amount of time. It's staggering how Essendon were too stupid to see how he was ruining them. Perhaps still years of drafts until Essendon recovers.

 

[The Casey Cat]

Making appearances on Sky After Dark these days. Appropriate that he's on a show with a bunch of ignorant, deluded dip sh!ts interested in nothing but their own conflicted (and generally completely unpopular) views.

 

[bzparkes]

Funny to watch the same old dinosaurs who royally ****ed the club think they'll fix it with yet another shot.

Seriously though, if this challenge is from the old coteries who need a restraining order against them from the club, and it's successful, then Essendon fans should just storm the club, Jan 6 style, to prevent them from taking over. Especially if it involves Hird.

The current regime may end up no good but it took them 2 years to cut out the cancer that was Sheedy, Dodoro and Little, that they need actual time to prove they're capable.

Regardless they have to do the best they can with it. In 4-5 years time they could still have a decent few players (even if they aren't stars). But this depends on them being patient and getting development right which has been another major issue.

 

[WillHayward]

A part of me hopes the the owner of DAZN just says "enough is enough" and closes Essendon down.

Hmmm, whilst it remains to be seen who is fuelling the biannual coup d’état of Windy Hill (pencil this disclosure in a virtual cold open with the First Lady); if it is to be new blood, will they possess the necessary wildcard to drag the ticket over the line?

Yet everyone who actually follows the draft kids has said that the draft this year will be just fine. There isnt 10 x Judds but there will be a couple of standouts and a heap of very good players.

The problem will be the next couple of years when Tasmania gets all the extra picks.

Essendon getting 4 very good players will help their list enormously.

 

[Mr.X]

dons are self imploding.

 

[Donflicted]

As soon as someone says we need Hird back you can tell they have zero football knowledge

hopefully this push fails because these people do worse for the club then the drug saga

Bring back Sheedy for a board position and he and Robbo can drink the entire northern suburbs dry.

Robbo doesn’t need Sheeds slowing him down to complete that mission

My Essendon Lie, by James Hird

James Hird response to the ASADA report tonight. [Intro] A long, long time ago I can still remember how Shane Charters used to make me smile And I knew if I had my chance That I could make my players dance And maybe they'd be stronger for a while But 2013 made me shiver...
