    Probably a bit harsh on a shadow, as I'm sure it shows better leadership.
    Higgins has been excellent, but against the big boys (forwhere North have recruited specifically for) he didn't fire a shot .
    Finals will be interesting
    You should take some time to check his finals record versus his regular season games.

    To be fair Essendon's VFL side often crowds of almost 900. Yes 500 tecnically are only there to play the pokies but you can see the ground from parts of the gaming room. Probably.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    I forgot the Saturday afternoon lawn bowls throng that can definatly see the ground. The must swell the number of people of people there to nearly 1250! And more than half of them are probably there to see the game.

    Lest we forget that our current captain was frequently played as a defensive lock-down small defender under the previous coach.

    And Brian Lake had no good footy left in him 3 years ago as a full back either. He'd be so handy right now for us coming into finals.

    Lake on Josh Hill last quarter of the GF. Lake stands up when it counts, Josh Hills career summed up perfectly.

    I know he lost a lot of faith with the club when some of the coaches questioned if he was legitimately injured. They must have felt bad when it was proven he was injured.

    Yep. We helped this three peat with a very generous trade and filled their glaring weakness. I hope we get some of the credit.
