Excuse my ignorance (trying to get away from all things footy the last couple of weeks), but did I hear right in the video that Charlotte Miller is moving on from the club??!
Major I kinda got a sense, since he was to be coach and player development manager, but others have been hired for a similar role, but I thought Charlotte was staying on as she was AFLW Ops Manager?
I got the impression that both Charlotte and Major won’t be at EFC, next season.
Charlotte won’t be at EFC in any role. Friday was her last day.
(And @Hoffy still has more BREAKING NEWS she hasn’t told you…)
Damn. Charlotte was one of the nicest people ever to deal with in the VFLW.
Fingers crossed it’s a bigger and better opportunity for her elsewhere, but from a selfish point of view, a big loss for EFC.
I need a glass of wine in my hand to reveal any more.
Is this one of the breaking news items?
Also, WHERE’S FEDE
The foot is definitely broken. May or may not be good to go come round 1 of the AFLW.
I did LOL at only the top half of Ashley-Cooper featuring in recent AFLW training images/videos.
the VFLW media team plays by no ones rules, apparently. 
This season review is a tad late (Essendon bit extracted only).
The two draws stopped us getting 11/10.

What went right: Pretty much everything. The Bombers took all before them in compiling an undefeated premiership season to put together the perfect warm-up to their ongoing AFLW debut. Georgia Nanscawen won her second consecutive Lambert-Pearce Medal and also claimed the inaugural rebel Coaches MVP. Federica Frew dominated the leading goalkicker award ahead of her co-captain Mia-Rae Clifford after being repurposed as a forward. Amelia Radford was the breakout star of the season, Alana Barba was best-on-ground in a Grand Final they won without conceding a goal. The Bombers also had the No.1 player in marks (Clifford), handballs (Nanscawen) and hitouts (Simone Nalder).
What went wrong: Not much. Being held to draws by Southern Saints early in the season and Hawthorn just before the finals was as close as it got to a hiccup for Essendon, while Nanscawen’s knee injury late in the last quarter of the Grand Final put a slight dampener on the premiership celebrations.
Summary: Five-year plans don’t often come to fruition, but this one could not have gone any better for Brendan Major and his team. The Bombers entered the competition with a one-win wooden-spoon season in 2018 and grew to make a preliminary final last year before becoming the unstoppable juggernaut they were in 2022. Major rides off into the sunset after a job well done, with the team well set to thrive into the future.
Grade: 10/10
Did anyone ever say why Major and Miller moved on, or were moved on?
