That’s not the worst trait to have.

Meet the new President | Andrew Welsh
Andrew Welsh speaks for the first time as Essendon President.
That’s not the worst trait to have.
It is if you are a poor judge of character.
Andrew Welsh speaks for the first time as Essendon President.
“I’d like to sincerely thank Matt Rosa for his services these last three years, and with that I welcome back to the club former list ma…”
No, it would be worse to have a poor judgement of character and be a fkn serial killer.
Ants:
No idea what it means for Merrett.
Check the Merrett thread.
Have you seen how many posts are in that thread???
Welsh told Seven News, in a short segment of a bigger interview posted to social media on Tuesday afternoon: “Yeah, Zach Merrett will be at the footy club next year”.
Well, fark. I was right, not willing to make any tough decisions.
If he doesn’t have players that can kick,handball and execute the basics right no game plan will work
This is Essendon… we can watch players miss kicks, miss handballs and not chase like so many generations before the current one.
But I have never felt the disconnect or lack of clear gameplan, as I have under Brad (and I wanted him).
But I also don’t think there’s an obvious answer out there to solve the problem. So we’re still farked and will be for a while.
“I’d like to sincerely thank Matt Rosa for his services these last three years, and with that I welcome back to the club former list ma…”
mods pls ban
One sec I just got a text message
Isn’t tonight Hirdy and Sloane Classified? Or is it the Purple flog tonight?
Some of his answers certainly had that good old “let’s push up the ladder and dream of finishing 8th” vibe, which I don’t love. We’ll see if it means anything soon enough.
I hate this club sometimes
Just as a matter of interest, what do you think “their agenda” is? And who are “the boys club”.
My experience of mixing with members of coteries and other club donors is that the only things that they have in common are that they support Essendon and they give money to the club, but every one of them has a different set of ideas about what is wrong with the club and what to do to remedy those things, and the idea that there’s a solid group with a single agenda is laughable.
100% correct. That’s exactly how it is.
But he signed the letter Welshy! Anything to perpetuate the drama!
He can still get traded you know.
Why should we weaken our position and give up Merret to Hawks for unders just because we need to make tough decisions?
Unless we get massive overs Merret will be at the club in 2026. its up to Hawks to get a deal done that satisfy the club
I think he’ll struggle in a press conference or interview situation.
Our first look at him in this setting will be tonight with Mitch Cleary on the news.
Will show just how gutless the club is if Merrett stays.
No one makes half a billion dollars in property and struggles to speak on the news.
At least it would freaking suprise me.
