The Stigga

Met him He's a lovely young man and he is stoked at being at the club Plays for the jumper. Need more of them.

Mate, I'm not going to lie, I'm 6 beers down as well. I lived in Canberra for 4 years, its freezing, I get it

Still crazy to think that Andrew Obst was 27 when he first played for us!

Clarry turning 27 soon Lever, Trac, Langdon, ANB all 29 next year May and Gawn both 33

McVee in the middle doing an Ed Richards with a surprise start in the middle

Neal Bullen is a future leader of wherever the world takes him

Agreed, I feel as I'm still waiting for a break out game from Sparrow even though he has played many good games

Of course Left him out as a first year player These 5 are from 3 to 6 seasons in

In no particular order: Van Rooyen Sparrow Rivers Pickett McVee These five men are the ones that are going to take us forward, I hope this year or next they are all pushing for the 40 all Australian squad. We cannot rely on our elders anymore, nor should we. I firmly believe these 5 are the new breed, the new leaders, and have to drive this club forward.

I dunno...Coast Guard...

100% agree

My reaction when North beats Collingwood:

Out AI, Out [censored] avatars In: A realistic appraisal of the current situation

You can't believe what you've witnessed

Yep For all the [censored] Essendon gets, they get Nic Martin of the rookie list and Sam Durham mid year...

Indeed...we can question, and discuss... Sycophants like you though support whoever, whatever are there...you sit on the fence, weak as [censored].

How do you bring in 'key players'? Free agency? - The number of quality players has dwindled significantly over the past couple of months, nearly nothing left. Trade good draft picks? - Don't have that many, will we empty the draft bank for the next two years to get such players in? I think many vastly overrate our list, especially with the fact that that game has evolved to a point that just being great at 'contested' and 'defensive' footy ain't going to cut it anymore...in fact the shift is such that reliance on these style/s is rather archaic.

These three are at the end of their careers. The problem is nothing has come up from below

Ok, lets bring in the same blokes next time that we omitted yesterday That'll do it.

Everyone on the trade table for mine. Need to get as many early picks as possible before Tassie come in. It was a fun ride while it lasted.

And again...

I keep saying, the longer this goes on... Time to empty the vault...

He played with Koltyn at WA rep, he's put in a good word for him!
