I don’t know there was a few games he was off the boil, north, Geelong and Melbourne games just off the top of my head
He would have been very close to being picked.
He is the only player in the top ten of the Coaches award to miss AA selection. It has happened before.

Could do the same for Zach vs Serong as well. He’s super super unlucky.

Zach in the centre, former team mate on the wing, another one on the interchange.

Sad that Zach missed but an absolute indictment on list management that we’ve thrown 5 extra coaches into player development including Rath and we have zero AAs and zero 22under22.
We simply don’t have the cattle

Zac plays table tennis apparently. Absolute farce. This “award” becoming more irrelevant as the years past. Instead of squeezing 11 mindfielders into a team, how about picking the best player in that position? Novel idea… I know.
Did Daicos play wing at any time in 2024?

We are at one of the lowest points of the club’s history. There’s no denying that.
In the end it was Massimo’s decision
He could have stayed but wouldn’t have been given the opportunities he has with the Hawks due to Brad’s policy of sticking with his favourites regardless of their form
Now he’s playing finals

We’ve been saying that for more tha a decade now. When will it end?
When we clean the whole lot out at board level.

Whitfield takes about 6 kick outs every game too padding his stats.
The current selection panel is absolutely obsessed with goal kicking midfielders. They made a massive song and dance at the start of this/last year about having an All Australian team instead of just the best 22 players in the league, which was clearly a load of crap

Class from Zachy there.
“The marathon continues” would be a fitting Essendon membership slogan. It would at resonate with the supporters.

Zach didn’t deserve it above anyone I don’t reckon.
