[Burzum]

We only draft Essendon supporters from now on.

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Barracks for Essendon as well. I see a trend.

 

[eDPS]

i dont know, we had parkar and hallahan available, sorry to the kid but we had better options at this pick, maybe for 48 but not 31

 

[Duckworth]

are they just picking guys that barrack for us?

 

[lards]

who??

6 ariels.

 

[Rack Watts]

The little mermaid to become a cult hero.

Is he a red head?

 

[OzBomber]

Do we really need any more KPP?

 

[Kong]

Re: National Draft Selection #31 - Arial Steinberg

Another Bombers supporter; deliberate strategy?

 

[lards]

Do we really need any more KPP?

After delisting a few, yes

 

[Jesse Custer]

What happened to good old midfielders?

 

[lards]

Is he a red head?

magnum

"Unless you're an Essendon fan who declares James Hird as your hero, forget it"


- Essendon FC email sent to all the people entering the draft

 

[sikmoe]

Is our first preferance: Must support Essendon??

 

[Kong]

Looks like a douche, just sayin.

 

[Rack Watts]

I am raging pretty bad at the moment to be honest, WTB North Melbournes recruiters.

 

[The Donners]

What happened to strengthening our midfield? You can pick up a key position player later in the draft.

If we pick up Neagle with pick 48 or pick 65 Keane should get the arse and he can take Dodoro with him.

I'm very skeptical so far.

 

[The Fact]

Does anyone know much about this guy or is he going to be another still

 

[ghostdog]

Is he Canadian or simply played football in Canada?
