Serious question.

Nope. I think they are indeed in some real trouble as they need more bottom end talent.

I was at the game this year against them and for most of the game, it was just comical. I am not sure how they can contend above maybe 8th or 7th position. They are us before we capitulated but on a worse scale because their senior leadership simply doesn't have enough grunt or class.

Brad will make them better by giving them at least AFL-standard coaching and tactics, but the talent just isn't there. Traded too many picks away (Dylan Shiel trade still continues to haunt them lol) when they should've prioritised the draft a little more after hit and miss seasons between 2009-15. They haven't really got the kahunas to go full rebuild as that will piss off fans being led to believe they are better than what results are showing and their board needs a cleanout with some new direction. Not to mention they broke Herbatron.

They are the example of a footy club that should've made the difficult choices a long time ago but didn't and have nothing to show for it. I am looking forward to how we go against them next season. Reckon the odds will be neck-and-neck if not in our favour. Our midfield is far better and more dangerous than their midfield especially with Clarko plus his disciples.

They are the trajectory of us if we didn't bottom out. Stuck in the middle, not going anywhere and not achieving anything. The difference being we have a conscious and don't backstab our own lol.

I have very little confidence (if any), they will make top 6. Everything about their list screams top 8 at best making up the numbers. I would dissect each player they have but they are simply not worth my spare time.

But bard is excited by the talent they have

Thats because they drafted for the short, medium and long term!

"I'm big on trying to get players into the role that suits them best, not trying to push them into a role that the team needs."

*in' Hell is Scott peddling some s**t. Was absolutely elite at putting square pegs in round holes in his attempt to have us execute the perfect gameplan.

 

[Frank Thring]

Keep it going Bard, they'll lap it up until * get ambushed in 100 days

Terry tan wallet would be so proud of the jibberish

 

[dus]

The euphoria of Clarko coaching us, is equaled if not beaten by the euphoria of Bard coaching *.

You couldn’t script this s**t.

Needed to somehow get one of their future picks for the joy of the death ride added in.

Clueless.

The funny thing is Brad even admitted to playing them if they were available before Boomer, Petrie and Spud were sacked.

Brad will find his favourites and put them on a permanent 'role player' responsibility racking up elite numbers like 15 possessions, 1 tackle and 65% DE.

Ezpz.

The * deadbeats on Twitter haven’t taken Clarko choosing us to well - every opportunity they get they try to stick the boots in.

I want us to pump these campaigners

 

[Frank Thring]

I'm loving my Essendon acquaintances having to swallow s**t after years of attacking Bard's mannerisms in the coaches box. Apparently now they have a coach with passion after Worsfold and Rutten. Bahahaha

Oh well indeed.

And Brad would be coaching with his head preserved in a glass jar. And still, be banging on about sustained success.

Good grief.
