Wonder if Truck will take the reigns for the Marsh series. will be beneficial for him to get an early taste of being in the hot seat and what to expect when he gets the gig full time imo.
Hoping itās not his hamstrings
Doesnāt turn 19 until after Rd 5.
Bring him in.
Heās played 78 games straight. Soft tissue injuries havenāt been a problem in recent times.
Thatās some kind of record for an Essendon player lets hopes it stays that way

Haha, i know. It wasnāt until a little later we figured out that Melbourne were a bottom 2 side. At that stage they were still a top 4 fancy. Youāve gotta love footy.
Thatās right we lost the first two games and then disposed of Melbourne and Brisbane in consecutive weeks and was thinking to my self here we go maybe the team is finally turning the corner but as always Essendon are just a tease haha

You talking about Brisbane? they were 3-0 heading to our match with their first win being against the reigning premiers in WC on their home patch irrc and we made them look second rate.

They squibbed it that day. It was their worst performance by a mile. Pressure was non existent.

Cool story. They were woeful that day. They squibbed it.
Losing on Anzac Day was far more meritorious than smoking a limp Brisbane.

Agree we matched them on the inside and absorbed pressure, we canāt seem to do that week in week out, thatās what we all want to see change.
