Odd timing, although I spose it gives them a goodbye game. Shocked about Boomer. Gold Coast for him.
I fully expect Vlad aged ninety to still be ragging on the Crows for doing something badly "just like the Sanderson years".
The best part will be if a Sanderson Jr is coach at some point during the next seven decades.
Well, say what you will about this year for Essendon, a convincing victory over Carlton means it wasn't all bad! And by god did we expose how terrible Carlton's forward line is. They didn't go without their opportunities, that's for sure.
Now Essendon are just 0.5% behind Brisbane, so if the Saints get the victory everybody expects them to get tomorrow, it will be the Lions rather than the Bombers who win the wooden spoon. For pride I'd rather not come last, but there is that first draft pick to worry about ...
If any club is going to benefit from the bye, it's probably North. But gee they are woeful. Brad Scott might be next to go.
Cannot remotely understand this thinking. You had the perfect weekend! Stirring win in the final game over a long-time rival AND you got the number one pick. Literally couldn't have worked out any better.
There is absolutely no grounds whatsoever for priority in my opinion. If anything if you finished 17th you'd be more likely to get it given the sanctions. (Also not all of them will come back; and those who do might take a while to warm up.)
ANYWAY! WE HAVE OUR FIRST WEEK OF FINALS.
