He’s been a great contributor to a very good vfl side for a long time now.
Will be a big loss but wish him all the best.

Impossible to overstate what Hepp’s meant to our program for a lot of years now, I wrote a short thread on twitter earlier so figured I’d share it here too.
Still find it very difficult to understand how he’s not on an AFL list somewhere.

"About a third of our (AFL) squad is three years or under, so Ben (Essendon senior coach Ben Rutten) and Josh (general manager, football Josh Mahoney) have put a big emphasis on development," Tudor said

This sounds promising
Tudor, who steered Essendon's reserves in last season's scratch matches in Queensland, will formally take the coaching reins in a **[new-look VFL competition that has expanded] to include clubs from Queensland and New South Wales.Alongside Roberts and new head of VFL East Coast Bernard Shepheard, Tudor’s mission is to strengthen the club’s VFL-AFL alignment, assemble a strong VFL squad and build a program that will fast-track the development of the Bombers’ youngsters.
He said there was already a collective buy-in from the AFL coaches to the VFL program.
“About a third of our (AFL) squad is three years or under, so Ben (Essendon senior coach Ben Rutten) and Josh (general manager, football Josh Mahoney) have put a big emphasis on development,” Tudor said.
"It’s a good fit. Cam (Roberts) and I look after our one to three-year players in the development, so for us to be able to control the VFL, play the same way as the AFL and speak the same language, we really want it to be a program that copies the AFL.
“Already the AFL line coaches Blake Caracella, Dan Jordan and Daniel Giansiracusa have come down and taken sessions with our VFL team. We’re taking it seriously. We want to train up our boys as quickly as we can and get them ready to play VFL football, so that with our young AFL group, we can support them as much as we can.”

Good to finally have some communications.
Wondering if @Paul_Cousins is President again this year as there was no mention of it in the update?

Plenty of dummy spits you’d think?
Hmmm reading that you might not think so haha, but yes apparently he is.
