    He's perfect for Essendon!

    Re: Brendan McCartney to Melbourne

    The Walls article points out something that was glaringly obvious to me from about a third of the way into the year last year, and that was the likelihood of some senior players pissing and moaning (for whatever reason) and it having an impact on the younger players.

    I don't think he'd be bad for the EFC, but if the Knights tenure was anything to go by Bombres supporters are definitely not up for being patient.

    Maybe the Bumbers just wanted at least another applicant for a sham coaching selection process to justify choosing Worsfold. If so feel sorry for BMac.

    Better off being a list builder than a head coach, and to be honest that's what they need, to build the list again.
