Next season

[M29]

Well after returning homje with a mammoth hangover and having no sleep at all last night after continually drinking until 6am, I have regained use of my hands and can type properly. I'd like to thank the boys for giving their all yesterday, Scotty Lucas a special mention, thought he was great. All the supporters that were around me were great. Finally, I'd like to congratulate Brisbane / Fitzroy on not only being the better team yesterday, but being the better team for the last 3 months. Looks like they will continue winning and will definately finish up top again next year. For ourselves, we must look for a ruckman in the draft, injuries we had this year didn't really impact us that much, as we still did well enough to make the grand final.

Cheers.

Most of the Bomber fans at the game yesteray were pretty gracious towards the Lions, which was good to see. Plenty were appluading Voss and co. as they did their lap of honour. Personally I stayed until the Lions passed the AFL members with their lap, and thought : "That's be enough. I'll go now."

We desperately need a ruckman. Adelaide and Port have about 4 each. I'm sure they could spare one. Anyway, I'm sure we will be back up there contending again next year.

Remeber guys, it's not about winning the flag EVERY year (which is impossible.) It's about being a contender every year and giving yourself a chance every year. We have done that for the last three seasons. 3rd, 1st and 2nd is a fantastic effort - much better than the underachieving days of '98.

Yep, we definitely need a bullocking type ruckman (ala primus. What I wouldn't give for him). Cec was great yesterday but couldn't do it on his own. We need another tall defender, we can't get away with playing Solomon on 6"5' ers every week. If Henneman or Bolton develop fine, but otherwise.

Rioli needs to lose weight and we need a more consistant crumbing forward. Mercs/Slash weren't good enought this year.

A full season out of #5 would be a bonus too....

So gracious were the Bomber fans, that Sticks Kernahan got a good round of applause from the Essendon cheersquad from what I could see

Hell, even Diesel might have got a clap

Or where they clapping Sticks for kicking it out on the full in 93?

LOL! It's funny how all of a sudden we're a bunch of arrogant pricks. No-one gave a stuff about us three years ago.
