We're repeating our training regime from last year's finals series. Darren Burgess philosophy was to treat the bye weekend off as a game like experience by doing an intense intra club match to ensure the boys are match hardened going into the following weekend. It was no coincidence that we were able to smash Geelong and Western Bulldogs pretty comprehensively by following this intense training structure.

The determination and toughness is certainly there with young Kynan.

A regular draft watcher went and watched the Oakleigh vs Sandy game on the weekend and took some notes on certain players that stood out to him. His comment on Kynan. Brown can find the footy, this has been proven week after week now. Melbourne would be loving what they see. His kicking needs a bit of work, and I suspect yesterday his confidence dropped as he started to distribute by hand more. He's quite quick as well. To be a starting mid in Oakleighs team is good sign for the Dees.

If AFL team and VFL are both in the finals together then yes, anyone can qualify. Had Melbourne not made finals and Casey did then he wouldn't be eligible as he hadn't played enough games.

Yeah I'm torn what to believe. History will say when you've put contract talks until the end of the season then then points to you being gone. Yet, I see how invested and happy here is around the boys still and it gives me a glimmer of hope. Unless he's announced to teammates internally and they've made the decision to accept and still embrace him as a teammate until we're done this year.

Contact West Coast, you know you want too..

Looks like McDonald is a certainty to play VFL this weekend if he gets through Thursday's training.

Sam Edmund on SEN today. Luke Jackson (Melbourne) “West Coast believe they’re still in the hunt for Luke, so we cannot rule out the Eagles. “Fremantle are seen to be the frontrunner there, that might still be the case, but the Eagles maintain they’re still in the race for the WA-born ruckman. “Luke Jackson’s gone, let’s just state that as fact.”

Cox is just another Cale Morton. No thanks. Sorry Cale....

If he wasn't super keen then why did he apply for the job in the first place?? Confused that would be he's thought process considering he was a bees knees from getting the Adelaide job few years back until he was beaten by Matthew Nicks. Jasmine Yze who is his daughter is currently at University and have could easily lived on campus while Noah is now in the back end of high school. Would have thought now would be the perfect opportunity. Disappointed for Ooze that he's missed out on this.

So there's a reason why it's called best first year player. Disco is in his 2nd year.

I need tickets now..

Even think back to this time 2018. Thought we had a genuine star on our hands.

Or vice versa??

Christ I don't want to judge a player through stats, but what happened to Weideman? I didn't see any of the game. Was he injured? poor weather?

Poor bowza lol. Got smashed last week at Casey and then this on Friday night. Honestly the kid is one tough bastard. Just gets straight back up and goes about his business.

This is a look of a bloke that's already been told he's sacked.. Seriously feel for him, the treatment alone had been utterly pathetic. Absolute disgraced of an organisation is Essendon.

In a team that was filled with some top end talent such as George Wardlaw

Yze Magic

Scott was an absolute gun footballer back in the day..

And then a few bongs after school.

Bin, I'm literally quoting word for word having watched it again this morning. Brown has a history of saying dumb [censored] before thinking and this was one of it.
