Well yeah that kinda goes without saying when we've performed as bad as we have but aren't some of you even just little bit peeved that you're paying a key-position backline player 8.50K a year who's name isn't Darcy Moore, Andrew Harris or Steven May?

We didn’t have the option to get any of those players as a free agent, and Ben was lucky that three teams (four if you include North) needed a key defender and two of them had ‘magic money’ this year that needed to be used.

I think you are trying to gloat or stir or trigger, but you don’t understand that this does not even make the top 50 in the ‘dumbest things we’ve done this decade’.

The last three pages have been very hard to read.

North supporters fascination with Essendon is one of the most cringe things on this site.

Little ironic given the amount of North people you've collected recently to help your club.
 
pushed his luck too far... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Well yeah :huh:

Although I wouldn't say I'm overly fascinated with Essendon even though they are a bit of a 2nd team for me. The topic was centred about McKay and not Essendon per se.

Imagine giving somebody an extravagant gift only for them to troll you about how much you spent on it. Like, just say thank you next time darlings.

BigFooty's Dan is nowhere near as painful and as overbearing as the other Dan.

I do not know about that. This thread has been pretty much turned to manure.

Spuds will grow in the compost heap if you let them, just a reality of their genetics.

This one won’t be back though. So we can talk about Ben instead of Dan

    • I guess Mr Dan i'm comfortable having Ben on my team on a 850k average salary when we are a financially healthy club with a large supporter and member base, alot more comfortable than if say we had Jaydon Stephenson and Hugh Greenwood as our top paid players
