I hate Essendon supporters with a passion but don't worry felllas I have extracted revenge on behalf of all of us on three separate occasions. I have successfully managed to draw blood from two of the arrogant sods and had a whole family of the ferals ejected from Telstra dome in 2009. The most fulfilling part was tasting the youngest bombers supporters tears, they were so salty!

McKenzie is only 22, he has youth on his side. He has time to fine tune his game, and he will because he is hungry like the wolf.

Nathan Jones. Head and shoulders above the rest.

Strike me down- it's sounding like Davey could be in line for a round 1 call up. I can not believe it!

It's all good. Whatever goes in that vault comes leaking out eventually.

I can't agree with this. Ben speaks his mind and 99% of his posts are informative and to-the-point. I believe he has a genuine love for the club and only wants us to thrive.

I have to say I am also emotionally invested in Watts, but I must confess if a swap for Cotchin was on offer I would pack Watts' bags myself

I'll still take it

I'll reserve judgement until I see him out on the field. The memory of Davey sulking on field last year is still very fresh.

Will be very exciting spirit, we virtually have a brand new team to tinker with. Something to look forward to. I can't wait to see how a team of Neeld players hit contests and hopefully in time run out games.

I really liked what I saw in his first game, it's good to know we have options. The small defenders role is up for grabs and we need to find the mix of toughness, speed and good disposal which so far has eluded us. Does it look like Terlich could eclipse all or too early to judge potential this early. Looked unbelievable in the highlights package.

Tynan? Haven't heard too much about him lately, how is he tracking? Who is looking good to take Barty's spot? Is Nicholson a clear stand out or does he have clear competitiion at this stage?

I want to be able to say that I barrack for the Dees without people looking at me like I just told them I had a terminal disease.

I apologize for the name calling last night. Bad day, we all have them. Still no excuse. And thanks for the input mjt, it was really good.

We did not stray from the AFL's rules. We used a system that they set in place to our advantage like many before us. This isn't cheating it's being smart. I resort to personal abuse because I've had it up to here with people who are supposedly supporters sticking the boots in. It's worse than outsiders taking pot-shots because you should know better. The fact that you don't says a bit about your mental capacity. Don't shoot the messenger because it's just a straight up fact

I took offense to it. Every man and his dog got stuck into Watts for not tearing the comp up as a skinny teenager. At the time we were scrutinized for playing him too early. Up until this day many people regard him as a failed 1st draft pick which is so unfair as the kid has no control what draft pick he's aligned with. And to suit some weird twisted set of rationale now not playing this "NQR" is proof of tanking? If that's their evidence it is comedy hour!

He knows.

Glad we agree on something. And I'm pretty sure we didn't deliberately try to lose, it just happened naturally. You can add another adjective to the few you just described yourself as; dense.

Enlighten us then. Tell us about sports and people. Do you know anything about list managment and future planning? I bet not.

Can we sue for damages when all is said and done? We're struggling enough as it is, don't need this extra pressure!

Lol Do you even know what Tanking is? Because you sound like a fool. We didn't tank. We put development ahead of ladder position. It's called planning for the future idiot. People like you get on your high horse and try to denigrate the club for doing what needed to be done for our future. Your view is too narrow to see this, or it is obstructed by hidden agendas. The people that actually want the club to do well long term opened this list management era with open arms. You probably did too at the time, but now to suit your ignorant short sighted new sense of morality surrounding the issue you frown upon it. What kind of supporter are you? Moron.

Look who predictably comes out from under his rock. You can go back in.

May I suggest you are half to blame for these constant back and forth jives? I mean, you keep feeding the antagonist... I like Biffen and BBO's input, get a sense of humour stuie, it's not all doom and gloom

I do not know how to respond to this.
