essendon's future team

[Shane Hird]

Any future team will have Kyle Reimers in it. I loved what i saw of this kid in the highlights package on bomber Tv. Very explosive both on the ground and in the air, great hands and a booming kick. He's bottom age so he's got plenty of development left.

Its very early but he could quite possibly be love child worthy...so ricky and jay better continue to improve or they may just get the arse.

Reimers is the forgotton draftee!

He might turn out the one that surprises us all and blitzes at the BBombers and might get a call up in the first half of the season.

He loves to kick a goal and can run all day.....

im getting excited for next year, how many of this years draftees do you think will play in the nab cup next year

 

[Longy413]

I'd say Gumbleton, Hislop, Davey, Houli are all genuine chances of playing in the NAB Cup depending how long we last.

 

[footy_paul]

what about jetta?

 

[Longy413]

what about jetta?

Got an injury at the moment, so probably behind the 8-ball.

But there is a long way to go. Realistically they are all something of a chance to play.

The other four just make sense to me.

Hislop and Houli are physically as close to being ready as you would see in an 18 year old.

Davey has a few years on most draftees, so you would expect the plans are to get him playing senior footy ASAP.

And we all know Sheedy will be chomping at the bit to put big Gumby on display.

But there is no reason why Jetta couldn't get a crack.

I don't know to be honest, I do know that he is carrying something and isn't training with the main group. A leg injury of some sort I think.

O.P??? very common in his age, plus they amount of running and exercise he does?

Nah, it's not that serious. Just a strain of some sort.

 

[bombers boy]

whats the chance's jetta gets his first game when we play richmond on that dreamtime at the g game,that games not until round 9 though and i think sheeds might play him earlier if his not injured.

Yes,we need our own BF Eddie Maguire down at WH reporting on EFC training and giving us the news on our recruits and the senior players

But,don't they train at Monash and other venues till Feb because of the Essendon Cricket Club playing on WH or do they just run around the wicket in the middle? BF Locals???

They have been training a bit at WH, usually a couple of sessions a week with the running work done at Fawkner park(near Albert Park lake). There have been comprehensive training reports on Bomber Blitz

 

[ant555]

They trained today at WH. I think they will also be training there Wed and Fri.
I went down and had a look today. I missed the first half hour but still saw about an hour of the session. Have to say everyone was looking pretty good.
I have to say that Johns is looking in very good shape. Last year he had a lot of bulk but lacked that real fit look, this year he looks to have fined down a little.

 

[DaSawx]

Do you know what times Wed and Fri? I'm hoping to get down
