What’s the problem?

Seems like we have a thread on what’s wrong with just about everything at the moment so was interested in where people think the number one problem is.

  • the board
  • the CEO
  • Richardson
  • Worsfold
  • Rutten
  • Dodoro
  • The players
  • The fans (this one’s for you JW)
  • Culture
  • It’s the vibe… it’s Mabo

Bring back the arrogance.

Bring back the whatever it takes attitude.

Bring back the IDGAF what everyone else thinks about us.

Ever since the scandal we’ve become the too nice football club, we are so scared to do any wrongdoing.

BRING BACK HIRD.

BRING BACK THE RUTHLESSNESS IN EVERY SINGLE PERSON AT OUR FOOTBALL CLUB

You could pretty much vote for all of them. The culture is rotten, it’s systemic thanks to the deep-seated acceptance of mediocrity, near enough is good enough, and just being a 12-win team and getting embarrassed first week of finals is considered a success.

Worked really well last time, what could go wrong?

No.

For mine it’s the leadership in all areas of the club. It all filters down from that.

Essendon Football Club has become an entity that just want to be “liked and respected” by everyone.

The entire club needs to focus more on winning games than in being liked.

The ironic thing is, the more the club has focused on being liked by the greater public and AFL- the more it’s become seperated by it’s own supporter base

The problem is the coaches can’t communicate to the players on what to do - or the players cannot execute what the coaches want them to do.

I think it’s the latter.

Nothing wrong with the club.

We just need to work hard on the way we want to play.

That poll is flawed. It only allows you to choose one thing.

We don’t have a brand. What do we stand for? Maybe we need to change the logo and distance ourselves from anything and anyone involved in the drug saga.

Players don’t get better after joining Essendon.

I don’t know what of the above that fits into.

The Poll could have done with a “Development” option.

It gets brought up more often than other options in there.
