Because Jade Gresham and Harry Jones are the future of EFC?
Why on earth would anyone select H Jones?
You farking wat bro?
Might as well play Gresham.
It’s not like Merrett, McGrath, Langford, Setterfield, Caldwell, Redman are the future of the club either, but they get games on the regular. Gresham at least has played well recently, which he has over most of the guys I just mentioned.
What time are they presenting Hird
You are not picking Gresham this week. The VFL need him.
If the announcement comes this week that we’ve appointed the great man, I might even think about attending this game.
There will only be 1 change
In . Clarke
Out . Settlefield
Sydney have beaten Essendon once at the MCG in the last 100 years.
2021 (COVID lockdown game) by 7 points.
Before that was… 1923.
In saying that, Sydney by 102.
Big difference is like it or not most of those guys are contracted and some still for multiple years so we are kind of forced to play them. Gresham is an easy delist so no sense to play him for 1 or 2 games
The best thing we could do is make these guys permanent VFL players, where they may actually provide some guidance to players below them, instead of getting in the way of youngsters who are already on the way to surpassing them.
Announce Hird at 4:30pm
Leave to catch the train at 4:40pm
Merrett will be gone nd Setterfield delisted. Hopefully a few others are trade bait otherwise yes just play them in the VFL until their contracts expire if need be
OUT: Kondo, Unwin
IN: El-Hawli, Nguyen
Sydney did not play in 1923.
So we have had the dress rehearsal vs Adelaide (they smashed us) - Muzza ![]()
We have had the dress rehearsal for ■■■■ you Chris Scott(they still smashed us) Hird ![]()
And finally the dress rehearsal against Shitney
McVeigh ![]()
Then there’s the guy Carlton will pick.
So next Sundays nights News is…..Essendon’s new coach?
How many times have we played Sydney at the MCG? Like since they have been consistently good?
If Reid is sore, do you play McKay, Jones or Blakiston?
