Well fck when we have been as poor as we have been for the last 20 years can’t help but to reminisce about when we were good.

Prove me wrong Essendon

Compare the pair:

One is Peter Wrights 2021 season averages

The other is 3 time premiership ruck forward David Hale’s averages over 2013 to 2015

Disposals: 11.7 v 10.9
Marks (contested): 4.2 (1.5) v 3.4 (1.1)
Goals: 1.4 v 0.9
Hitouts: 9.8 v 14.9

Bulldogs bid on Brand, when we packed up shop and expected to get him as a Rookie.

Eyre was a player that came home strong, as the year went on. He tested at the State Combine really well (from memory) and made a few clubs take notice.

There’s nothing wrong with Wright and his current output, but he’s obviously not a guy you build a forward line around.
He’s a 3rd banana.

That number is inflated due to his 8 goals against the bulldogs

Let’s just take out all his goals and then he won’t have kicked any at all, then we will see his true numbers.

Lol Nino, take it out then. I love pretending things don’t exist. Make it easier to make things suit my argument

Sweet then I can take out his 1 goal in his first 5 weeks then. Even better averages.

I don’t know why we took Wright, when we could have gotten Mason Cox…. He would have had a huge season for us.

I think his game against the pies on Anzac Day was my favourite

16 disposals
10 marks
11 hit outs
6 Tackles
8 score involvements
2 goals

That’s the type of output I would like from him he has it in him to be the best ruck/fwd in the comp

we would have had a great season, two Cox would be even bigger.

Look, I appreciate you just want to see the Dons do well, but having a go at the dude we picked up for four fifths of fck all and actually played really well ain’t the way to go.

Not having a go at him I think he can still get better that’s all

Let’s hope you are right. I for one would love to see him kick 3 goals a game. Would be pretty incredible.

He’d be the best Key Forward in the competition.

I know - I probably wouldn’t bet my house on it. Or my phone or anything else tbh.

He was tipped to go higher after he performed so well at the draft combine. Twomey said a bid could come anywhere after 30.
