Essendon in 2011 were barely any better than Essendon in 2009, both sides made finals with a weak win loss record and got flogged in the finalWe averaged 109 points against per game. It was pathetic. The game style was just rubbish that was why he was sacked. We were never ever going to have success with that style. Anyone who watched us knew it and the players did too, they gave up playing for Knights.
The next year under Hird we made finals (before Dank etc). Now we know how that turned out later on but it proved that with a more competent coach our list was capable of pretty quick improvement.
Again I would ask anyone defending Knights. Do you want him?
