Essendon needs to pay this bloke to breed!
We cant have enough Zac Merretts in the future!
By far our best player!!!
We should pay him to put him out to stud when he’s finished up.
It’s a pity we’ve wasted the career of one of the better players in the club’s history.
Him in a top 4 team would be viewed in a very different light.
What a gun. A legit gun.
Zach I love you, but we’d probably have a few more top 5 drafts picks running around if it wasn’t for you!
He could play for another 5 years (at least)
I agree. He’s paying a tax for being in a lowly team. He’s a superstar and I don’t think as widely appreciated as he deserves. Hird, Watson (Jobe) and Merrett our three standouts this century.
That 20/80 ground ball he won at the top of your forward 50 in particular before feeding off a handball that resulted in a point was off it’s head
If Hird is included, so must Lloyd.
True.
If we scrounge enough wins we could genuinely jag this lad a Brownlow
It’s the only think that would make a 9th - 11th place finish bearable
Hes better than Jobe.
An astute Blitzer said last week that the filth have really held up because they’ve had a bunch of great players extend their careers into their mid 30’s… Pendles, Sidearse, etc
Merret can be that… premiership at EFC to pay him back in 2030.
I remember how many people on here tried to tell me that parish was better than Zach in 2021.
Yes both had good years that season but if you couldn’t see who was the more complete player then god help you
Struth… How quick was Comben there? Standing start nearly caught up with Langford who was on his bike. Awesome passage of play by the cap
What a captain! I wish he was 5 years younger. I don’t know who can replace him.
Lamgford ■■■■■■ me off so much in that play. Sees 2mp and then goes the hero shot
