Maybe at training when there's more than one per player!
He had it more than Dyson, Slattery, Johns, Laycock, Davey, Johnson, Heffernan, Bolton, Lloyd, Monfires
Well in that case we should give him top marks in the best and fairest voting then!
If Bradley didn't play and we had only 21 players, there is no doubt in my mind we would have looked a lot better and come closer to Collingwood.
Yep, strange ins.
Bradley I can half understand, due to this myth that he is apparently a back up "tall". Again, hardly used as one today apart from when he was thrown on Cloke and got smashed, Ryder used as the second ruck and really is a nothing player who just runs around like a giraffe making mistake after mistake.
The Bolton one really suprsied, we could of rested numerous players from the VFL.
We are still developing, why suddenly do we go backwards? How can the match committee justify playing Bolton at all this season, save a last round or two game to end his career? Simply not part of our team now, or in the future. A total waste of a spot. Sure, Lonergan, Houli, Hislop, Gumby whoever may have done zero today, but at least get something out of it.
This was a perfect opportunity to blood a youngster, as a few will struggle to get games in this side this year.
You can lose, but still go forwards. I feel we went backwards today, that's what is hurting the most.
We need bite around the packs, clear as day. We simply arent good enough in this area. JJ will come back, but guys like Lonergan and Hislop have to be introduced and persisted with at various times this season, in the hope they can step up to the plate in 08/09. This are still needs huge development.

You must have him confused with someone else. He is no footballer. He is simply someone who wears an Essendon top everynow and then and consumes too much oxygen than he is worth.

bit harsh, he is definately struggling, but you can't fault his courage backing into to packs at least, the game just needs to slow down a little more when he has the football, it is something he can work on
he is categorically the most awkward footballer ive eva seen! Exactly as someone else said he looks as if hes going to loose his footing with every step he takes. He coughs it up immediatly when tackled (something alot of our players do....) and has no compusure or football brain. Plus his shorts are 8 sizes too big (perhaps why he runs as if he is gunna trip ova). Hes an absolute disgrace and i cant be believe we have wasted a no.6 draft pick on such an insipid **** like this.
And dyson well ****. the moment where he and Heath Shaw were running at the ball together and he was so soft it defies all human logic. I mean even the softest bloke in the world would raise somewhat for an anzac day clash infront of 90000 ppl, late in a tight game. Just soft and coughs it up....
Im afraid we got far too ahead of ourselves with a few early wins. Unfortunately the comp will do that cos its so even that a little role will mean u probably win three or four games in a row.
Outs; Bolton, Bradley (both for good), Dyson, Heff, Johns
Ins; Hislop, Dempsey, Windelich, Welsh, Hille

Senior List
He Kicks the ball like a Reserves Footballer
He Runs like a reserves footballer
He deals with pressure like a reserves footballer
So why the hell was he playing in the Seniors! Absolute Disgrace that he was brought back. We looked a better team in first 4 weeks without the cough up kings Bradley and Bolton. Well never get anything for either of them anymore so I bet theyll continue to play next year. What a joke. Bradley you are a disgrace!

I doubt Heff and Johns will get dropped, Heff certainly wont. Dempsey is out for a month with a hammy and so wont come in.

going by how we have acted with Bolton, I very much doubt it. Sheeds is too stuborn to admit that a 1st round draft pick is a complete failure.

GEE dont all the mondays experts come out when we have a loss why dont you all trie and support instead of criticising? If you watched the game properly he was not on his own. Last year if wasnt for him we would not of won a game. He was just down on confidence give him a go or go and support another team. Hey why dont you go anyway.

Please go and barrack for another team it is people like you that think they know everything and know nothing at all really i am sure you live near a football club so go and tell a few auskickers what you think you probably get told the same thing p@%s off mate.
I've had a lot of faith in him all along but he's really, really testing my patience out now.

No. This is wrong. And that's not just being a Thursday's expert.
The rise and fall of Kepler Bradley has evoked a great deal of debate on this site over the past 2 seasons (and certainly even before that). Last year he didn't perform any great miracles (Scotty did, McPhee had a few, and Hille tried his guts out) and you'd never have seriously said he won us the game. He does need confidence, but not just from when the team is winning. He looks good when we're dominating the contest, but panics and loses the plot if we don't. Our great hope in recruiting Gumbleton was that he might be able to do what Bradley couldn't. Hopefully he still can.
Bradley has had far more chances than he deserves, probably just because of his height. Sure he can mark, and does stumble into contests. It always looks courageous, even against opponents much smaller than him, because he has no ferocity in his attack. What happens after that mark is painfully cringeworthy. If we're lucky a running teammate collects a handball for an effective disposal. Otherwise he bombs it with a loping pass that gives opponents time to ballot for themselves who will intercept. Or while he's looking for options 'play-on' is called, he's tackled and the ball is turned over. And who kicks backwards from the half-back line ever?
So no more chances. Perhaps he can dominate for Bendigo, and good on him if he does. But he's not an AFL competitor, and shouldn't remain on the senior list beyond 2007.
