Somerville V Alessio

[Rebecca]

Just wondering who you Bomber fans think is/was the better player for Essendon?

 

[windyhill]

Well Peter Somerville actually earnt his Premiership medallion.

 

[go team]

ces has been going pretty good this year

 

[Essendon Fan]

Both top players,
but I'll go with Alessio.

 

[pazza]

I'll probably go with Suma

 

[TD]

IMO, Somerville is close to the worst "footballer" to wear the red & black

Both about as unremarkable as each other.

I suppose Somerville will always be the main scapegoat for losing the unlosable preliminary final.

Anyone find it mildly amusing that Hille changed his number to 19 this year?

 

[Essendon Fan]

Number change

yeah I was wondering about that (number change!)
Hmmm...

I think you mean Alessio, in regards to the '99 Prelim.

I thought it was somerville as well.

Didn't he only get one possession that whole game?

Regardless, I didn't see him as a scapegoat.

I don't mind Ces as a forward. As a ruckman though, I can't have him.

I think of him the other way around.

Alessio was the one stat wonder.

Alessio had 4 possessions, 1 goal and 8 hitouts
Somerville had 7 possies and 23 hitouts

I blamed that loss on the guys that kicked 7 behinds in the 3rd quarter. I think Caracella was the main offender.

How about Ben Doolan's non-attempt at spoiling Pluggers mark - he was coming in from the side and pulled up! It would've been a career highlight had he put his body on the line. Weak as ****s.

I'm with you on this one TD. Alessio is no S.Madden but Somer was a poor man's I.Grgic.
