If Francis plays forward, I’ll lose it.

7 defenders named, one has to go forward, suspect Francis is the one.

Not really. Hooker and Raz go out, Francis and Gleeson come in. Two defenders out, two in.

Hahaha I don’t honestly think that we’ll win by 10 goals when I’m thinking logically. I reckon we’ll be lucky to even get a fall over the line win. But that’s my point about this team. You honestly don’t know what you’re gonna get from week to week.

[CJohns]

Good thing we strengthened that backline up with adding a 7th defender now as thats an area of real concern🤦‍♂️

[WindsockBoy]

Hate to post facts into a good sook session.
A Adelaide are also a team of midgets- 8 players under 6ft.
B With no scratch match those not selected did an extra hour after the main training to give them as close to a full workout as possible
C We’re still going to win.

Can still get $2.50 for the crows

[bomberboy05]

We always have 7 defenders. Not all defenders play 100% game time

[Clone_Hirdy]

I’ll give our coaching staff one thing…they certainly are persistent!

[CJohns]

We have 1 tall forward and hes out of form

[Gwilty]

The little faith I had in Essendon’s coaching panel has been snuffed out with this week’s team.

Need a complete clean out at season’s end of all of them, not just Worsfold.

Really should have appointed a coach, an outsider who hadn’t been previously contaminated by the Essendon way Instead of Rutten.

We already have 7 players that were taken at 10 or below in the draft on the list, probably 8 if you count Shiel who was drafted as an underage by GWS but surely would have been top ten.
You could have 22 and it would make no difference if coached by the most conservative of coaches in the AFL. I know without looking exactly who will be picked each week.

[Clone_Hirdy]

What is Essendon good at…

[Fairybread]

That’s enough potty mouth from you dear lady.

Happy Birthday

But still, we will be lucky to even kick 10 goals.

Congratulations on your first win of the season Adelaide.

[Gwilty]

No loss

Changed for accuracy purposes.

[bomberboy05]

What’s that got to do with playing 7 defenders?

We need 7 so that we can rotate 1 on the bench

[Clone_Hirdy]

I might go throw a fifty on Adelaide to win by 44+pts

[Gwilty]

Hardly a Brilliant idea to try to copy another Club’s game style of 3 years ago, particularly when Essendon don’t have aRiewoldt or Martin.

Easy to see why Essendon are permanently stuck on a road to nowhere.

[IceTemple]

Why is everyone so keen on Stewart?
