When was the last time Rehn got something right?

How he gets airtime on SEN is beyond me.  That said, he's not on his own.

Don’t know mate, sorry I posted it.

    Tom Rehn on SEN said Dees were circling at around 4pm today

    Maybe we left it a bit late if we were only circling at around 4pm today after he had re-signed with Port? However, SWYL seems to think we can bend the time-space continuum by passing on Wines in the draft when his first league game was a BOG.

    decisions like passing on Wines when his FIRST GAME against us was BOG keep the theory alive sadly.

    I’ll rephrase it for the last time, he’s gone and never coming so let’s get over it. I never held hope that he’d come to Dees or want, I actually didn’t think the club would pursue him.

    “Tom Rehn at around 4pm yesterday on SEN said Dees had been circling”

    Not now, the way we have developed recently. we don't need him now.  We need more pace and nimbleness.

    Don't forget Maynard as well.

    But I wouldn't mind Degooey.

    I have a theory that when we lost Wowie in 2002 some soul left the club of that group. 

    No-one leaves this cuurent team . Incl the rubbish talked about hogan.

    The tightness of the players cannot be overestimated.

    Good call, although it is as much about the players you bring in as the ones who go out. Not only did Woewodin leave, but we brought in Heffernan and Moorcroft who never wanted to leave Essendon, and Fatboy Pickett who was there just for the money.

    Thats true, I remember feeling shocked, with the loss of Woewodin. It felt like another blow to me as a supporter.

    But a sociable based afl club, as distinct from a hardened title hunting AFL side, 'can be', different things.

     

    That team, and this current team, are so far removed in mindset, its not funny.

    Heffernan was an absolute spud! His heart was never at Melbourne despite being a dees supporter as a kid. Came in with big expectations as he was touted to be Essendons next captain in waiting

    Up there as one of the worst players to pull on the red and blue.

    Gary Moorcroft was a gimp.

    On face value - Viney = no. 

    If Viney's foot/toe flares up again in the next few weeks? Romance aside, it would be a better result for the team long team.

    And yes i know that won't ever happen, especially since he is a captain, but as long as we're talking hypothetical's ...

    NFW to down trading our top 3 pick, we don’t need anymore of his type. 

    Ok, watch Hawthorn somehow get Hill, Coniglio, Patton, while we do the same thing and stand there like Winnie the Pooh...

    Trying to think outside the box a bit, Brad Hill will not solve all our problems...

    1) We'll have pick 2.

    2) Wouldn't be trading away pick 2 for a player that is not an automatic selection for any team in the league.

    3) Wines has plateaued; he's not the player he looked like becoming after his first two years.  Not to say he's not a good player, but he's not a top shelf target.

    Worth serious consideration definitely 

    We have the chance with pick 2 to get a very good player, rather than a 25 year old who is struggling at the moment and is another slow inside mid. We need real class badly.

    NO!

    Fair enough. Someone else suggested it and I thought your post was following the same theme.

    Yes I would take Ollie for the right deal.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
