My first thought is to swoop in on the carcass…

Who could we get?

Draper had a stinker but pbly isn’t a bad fit
Parish and Merrett are guns

I used to like Caldwell and he’s pretty talented but choosing Essendon over us makes him dead to me

Like Wright but I don’t know if we need him

That’s all I can really think of

Be fascinating if that’s right
They aren’t happy
But alas….IF true then as a club they’re saying “we won’t cop these mediocre results”
While we say:
“Brett’s gone backwards every year he’s coached us, we have zero forward game plan and transition the footy from defence to attack like Benny Hill….,.but come on down for 2 more years in the wilderness Brett!!!”
IF True.

With DOPEYDORO runing recruiting they remain a rabble.

Now releases say he isnt gone just shows what a rabble they are.

No doubt about mediocrity at Essendon 6553 days since they won a final !

And yet we couldn't beat this rabble, even with our average list and outdated game plan.


The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

Says a lot about our clubs management of a completely inept coaching group IMO. How is it when we do get a good coach we cant manage them and they leave and now we have had a chain of duds we want to keep them forever? We are so poorly managed its comical...

AFL website


Several high-end business people connected to the club had been seeking to formalise a plan to officially approach Clarkson, with the meetings called to address this matter and other aspects of the club’s football operations

In breaking news, the Essendon board, on the advice of club legend Kevin Sheedy have just signed Jeremy Clarkson as new coach.

Sheedy said they wanted someone who could get the team into top gear.

My boss is, like me, a Saints tragic. The first thing he said when he rang today was "Mate, how does it feel to be a Saints supporter this morning?"

"A fait bit better than being a Bombers' supporter" was my quick reply.


Saint supporter since '62

Sounds like they are thinking Rutten gone if they can get Clarko, if not he stays. Typical Essendon arrogance last minute pivot expecting everyone to fall over themselves to throw themselves at Essendon's whim.

imo if they pulled it off at this stage it would be with a ridiculous offer that couldn't be refused and would mean they would have to sacrifice assistance staff, recruiters ect.......

Under those circumstances wouldn't be bad to see the dopers set back for anther 5 years or so if they did do it.

That footage with Rutten sitting next to Hind, and Hind giving him the cold shoulder is amazing. https://wwos.nine.com.au/afl/news-ben-r ... 4dbae6ce79

Yep lost players
Efforts fallen away
Interesting some levelled that at us last half season - especially after deplorable losses to Bombers …

What would be even better is if he goes to North instead . 6554 days and counting.

The same token what would North do is he chooses Ess at the last minute - move to Tas?

It’s a interesting to me that counting days since a club won a final has bobbed up here as of late as a measure of poor performance.

I think I’d settle for a flag or 2 in the 90s versus all the near success we’ve had in the new millennium

We all would but our lot in life is not to win premierships.
That said the one time "bully" is now picking up rubbish on the side of the road ( yes we lost to this rubbish) so any reminder we can provide to them of how far they have fallen i think is fair game.

The drug cheats are like vultures descending on any dead carcass in case they miss out on a free feed somewhere.

Clarkson should be extremely wary of those arseholes.

If clarkson goes to the bummers you can guarantee he'll be getting some brown paper bag money , or perhaps some sort of property deal investment which for minimal outlay , will low and behold make him / his wife squillions.
