Welcome to Essendon - there might be more last list spots…

Grab a young kid who’s quick and can play half back.

Develop them

Either this or an inside bull.

i think we are good for mids, we seem to have a list full of talls and mids, we need some small defenders or maybe another small forward.

I wonder where Sam Murray is at with his footy. Sure the kid mucked up but he has some weapons.

You don’t draft lockdown Small defenders.

You draft attacking halfback flankers and develop them as lock down defender.

I really do like the idea of Murray of the HBF.

Doesn’t seem like the personality that Essendon would be interested in though.

he had 15 touches in that marsh cup game he played, so he got near it 15 times :sweat_smile:

out of all the Irish guys, and beanpoles who have only picked up a footy 2 years ago, surely we could have given one of them spots to Aaron Heppell. he would of developed into a good AFL player imo

Next question…

I thought (given ages) Mynott was better performed of the two and had more upside, and we cut him.

Its pretty easy to type Baldwin and Mahers names into google.

Or just check our draft thread :wink:

Small defenders and forwards are what we need, hopefully we see a few given permission to train.
