Were do you think you will come in 2009?

[HODGEYROAD]

I think you will come 10th-14th, you will be a lot better in 2010!

 

[Smyth94]

We'll make the finals if we can keep our best 22 on the park for most of the season

 

[Bradles21]

11-9th seriously dont know what all the hype is for, i hope we make the eight but i dont wanna highten my expectations. consistency and all round ball usage will keep us out of the eight

 

[LukeParkerno1]

12th for mine, all I expect is general improvement across the board, and hopefully some more games into Gumbleton especially

 

[Merv]

Unless we have another horror run with injuries Essendon will be playing finals again next year.

 

[dirtywhitepacker]

I think we are capable of finishing as high as 4th if everything falls our way. I also think if things go against us we are capable of finishing as low as 14th.

 

[Burzum]

10th or 11th.

 

[Sigmund]

10th

 

[Calthorpe14]

6-10 again.

Will depend on the usual - youngsters improving, injuries etc

 

[silk]

10th... somethings just not quite right at bomberland at the moment....

 

[warney7]

10th

Still got huge deficiencies in defence and that can't be disputed.

That's the area where we'll (hopefully) see the most improvement and the reason we'll be playing finals in 2010 but not next year!

 

[kelvin_sheedy]

4th.

Surely we have to have a season with a good injury run sooner or later.

Our top end is still playing good footy, our middle core is bridging the gap and we've added some quality kids.

I expect our average age to be around 25 per game next year which is about where it should be to play finals consistently.

 

[Slattery_20]

Parks, public toilets, phone booths, trains, other people's couches, all the usual places really

 

[Bomber32]

I think we will finish 8th next year.

Very optimistic.

I'm an optimistic person though and I can see this happening. A good run with injuries and we could push the four.

It's a very even league.

10th... somethings just not quite right at bomberland at the moment....

I can't believe that I am the first man to take this muppet to task over this comment!!!!!

What exactly do u mean by this?

Because IMO everything is right at bomberland at the moment.
1. One of the best up and coming lists in the game.
2. Solid trade/draft period so far...will only get better.
3. Re-emergence of our captain as a star in the league.
4. Bright new coach who is severely changing the culture for the good at the club.
5. Fantastic coaching staff inc. fitness department which has no added some of the brightest minds in the industry...ie. Richardson, Hamilton

I believe that the only thing u can possibly be referring to is the delisting of hislop but asides from that....u r a FOOL!!

 

[Kong]

9th.

 

[essendon2008]

A lot better but we'll fall in ladder position?

He thinks we will drop in the ladder next year and be a lot better in 2010

I will be disappointed not to make finals. At best i would think 5th and at worst 12th.

 

[Burzum]

He thinks we will drop in the ladder next year and be a lot better in 2010

Didn't read it properly

 

[Sir James]

Unless we have another horror run with injuries Essendon will be playing finals again next year.

I agree

 

[bomber69]

7th. Bookmark that.

 

[Sigmund]

You do realise that this is in fact the Essendon board

I reckon that we'll make the eight comfortably with a good run with injuries, and just make it with a decent to poor run with injuries. Also, Collingwood to miss.

 

[Enki]

Probably around 9th-10th. I still think we need another year of development before things start coming together properly, and this assumes we keep developing further as well.

That said with a bit of luck to go along with or current improvement it's quite concievable that we could make the eight.

 

[eth-dog]

anywhere between 5 and 10.
