Autopsy Three wins

I thought I remembered a thread here pre-season but can't seem to find it - feel free to merge if so

It's over, Essendon won three games.

Was that what you thought?

I remember some people actually suggested it'd be 5+.

Others were absolutely adamant Essendon wouldn't even get close to one win.

Where did you stand? What do you think of it now?

Personally I had us down for 1 - 2 wins, so it went a bit better than I thought. I did think they'd come later in the year against teams out of the finals race, so the Melbourne game really surprised me.

Any observations? Has it changed your perception of the strength / quality of the AFL competition? If nothing else it's an interesting experiment in that sense.
I didn't see the game... did you end up beating Brisbane?

I thought 1 win (vs Carlton) prior to round 1 but now I'm shocked to be sitting here... yet I'm lead to believe Essendon were unable to beat Brisbane...

I thought they would win 1 or 2 & cop a lot of thrashings.
I also thought I would love seeing those thrashings.

I was wrong, they were good to watch (when competitive) and put in a solid season. #1 pick is a nice little bonus.
Club and fans should be pretty pleased.

My dislike for Essendon may return as they are climbin' the ladder next year.
