Back six looks like fkg Christmas Island
no menzies is alittle win i spose
“we are essendon we are essenDON”
Those Christmas Island crabs move way quicker than our back six.
Why did we select Brad Scott?
Serious question. He is the least inspiring coaching choice in the league.
The biggest shock for me is Joe has made it to 200 games. Gobsmacked. If he was still with us he would be on his 200 games as injured.
Things you could have said at any time for 24 weeks.
Selection could have gone two ways this week: throw the magnets around now, and the finals are out, or continue as is. Obviously, Scott has gone with the second option. I’m not as disappointed as I might have been. I see some logic in finishing off as we started and then starting new next year. I’m choosing to believe this will be the last game for a few of those named, and the team R1 next year will look quite different. Get this sh1tshow of a year done and wipe the slate clean. I hope so, anyway.
All I can think is that he is playing all these old guys so opposition can see what they are getting next year.
He is trying to get himself sacked to get out of this ■■■■ show
Selection integrity
Brad is ‘finding out about the list.’
I wouldn’t expect you to understand such a 4D chess move.
Yes, and also pumping up old players’ trade value.
He just operates on a different level to us normies.
Why would you play spuds that are potentially gone next year? That makes obsolutely no sense at all.
I think we should offer Heppell another year, so we can give him a home farewell game.
playing weed last week is an all time head scratcher
Agree with this, we know Saad etc will be on the list next year. Brad gets one more go at stamping papers for a few named tonight besides Hepp.
Name them? Who’s gone?
So we’ve selected (mostly) the same squad that has shat the bed post-bye for 2 years in a row. We’ve named Lual as an EMG who, let’s be honest, has probably been our worst performed VFL player on the year. Avoided picking Tsatas, SEH & Hayes despite strong VFL form to back in noted superstars Matt Guelfi, Jayden Laverde & Jake Kelly.
I really do not like Brad Scott.
Brad is not stupid he would sack himself before the club even attempts to knife him the back.
Then when he’s out he’ll spill the beans to the media on what a shambles of a club we run
I’d rephrase that and ask who could go after playing Saturday night?
You could start with Kelly, Hobbs, Guelfi, Perkins, Laverde, Shiel…
