I hate the fact that opposition supporters continue to believe that Watson's kicking is awful.

His kicking has improved dramatically and I would almost call it in the top 5 at the club over 20 metres. Very underrated kicking.
So what? Priddis' kicking has improved as well. Both players kicking was awful but now is reasonable.
 
How about the second game against Carlton last year where he went to the midfield onto Murphy and gave him a masterclass on what is is like to play midfield..

Oh well gee wiz, a guy coming to the end of his first season who clearly tiring getting toweled up by one of the top mids in the comp. I guess that's gg career for him. Anyone want him? 4th rounder maybe?
 
Of course not. Especially when opposition posters are talking about Essendon.

Nobody needs reminding that this thread wasn't even started by an Essendon supporter but it will be the first point of reference used when we lose our next game about how all Essendon supporters are "delusional" and "getting ahead of themselves", just like how all Essendon supporters were booing Brent Stanton last year.

Tis the BigFooty way.

Watson's is more than reasonable son.

Both fantastic players, but I'd take Watson's kicking over Priddis' everyday of the week and twice on Saturdays.

I doubt Lonergon would even make Carltons 22

I rekn he'd take Carrazzo's spot.

:D
 
Can't tell if trolling or just ignorant... on the Henderson point. Him and Jamo are amongst the best spine players in the comp.

On the Yarran point, he has excellent disposal, speed and smarts.
I watch almost every game of football each weekend.
I suppose uou as a Don supporter believes "Dempsey" is "good" and i as a Carlton supporter believe Yarran is great but i think the majority of the informed public and media would back my point...

The issue with Dempsey is the Essendon supporters are basing their opinion of Dempsey on 7 good games in the last 2 seasons against poor teams. Carlton supporters fondly remember his rd 19 effort on Garlett in 2010 when Jeffy kicked 6 while Dempsey let him play with 15m leg rope.

I think I would wait until Dempsey has performed against some quality teams before pumping up his tyres too much.

Robinson? How does he even get a game?

He doesn't hurt anyone with his disposals.
He gives away way too many free kicks - so he's undisciplined.

Sorry but he would not get a game at Essendon and at least a dozen other clubs.
I hate Carlton and Mitch Robinson as much as anyone, but he would easily get a game in our team.

You mean his first year in afl? Get rid of him now... spud </end sarcasm>

Someone was of the opinion Heppell had never played a bad game. I simply refreshed their selective memory.

While I have an opinion on his talents, I can't recall saying he was not a talent young footballer who will make a valuable contribution to Essendon in the future.
 
Playing in defence...

You've embarrassed yourself in this thread champ. He plays midfield, and nothin but. Do you think you are a better judge than the coaches?

Like I said, you've absolutely embarrassed yourself. 99% of people who've read this have just sneered at your sad little troll attempt :(

When did I say he never played a bad game?
I was replying to a poster saying he has never played in the midfield well which was wrong.
