"Essendon: rated A+ in this trade period"

Yeah, we got blown out of the water by having two first round draft picks to use. And picking up Crozier, Trengove and Schache as well (two of them former first round picks).

God I love Dodoro for what he's done to that club.

The really great thing is, so do they.

Stringer absolutely stinking it up against the Blues. Extended VFL stint surely.

[Mofra]

Stringer is a lot heavier this season than in the past.

Apparently he put on 4kgs over the off season, in the latest photo in The Age he looks way out of shape for a guy who was supposed to transition into the midfield this year.

Some of the BF / BomberBlitz comments are savage.

I've heard their fans Bronx cheer him in at least two games. They seem, now, to understand they've been sold a lie about him. As another poster said, when they drop him to the VFL this week, no one would bet on him fighting out of his position. I wonder how long it's going to take to start a conversation in the media about paying his contract out and pushing him out the door.

Good article by Judd.

All this angst over Essendon in the media. Boo hoo Bombers. You deserve it. That's the sort of club they are. In my years as a Bulldogs fan, have never heard us give our players a bronx cheer, granted I only go a few times a year now.

Now Baguely is in hot water for sledging Jed lamb about his father, who was murdered when Jed was 6 (leaving his mum a widow with 7 kids!).

This week is really getting worse for the Bombers.

It is a good read. I have come to like Judd on Footy Classified, seems to have a brain (and he argues with Caro, so that gets brownie points!)

Have thought that all year. Makes a mockery of the claims that he'd actually dropped a similar amount, as you say, in order to play midfield. I was stunned when they gave him the flick, now seems it was a prudent move.

It's gone past footy for me. I genuinely fear for the guy.

Whoah. That's not going to end well for anyone.

What a shambles Essendon are.

They're claiming Stringer needs to build his fitness to return to his 2015/16 level performances, and he needs time at Essendon to do that because he's coming from so far back.

No one in the media questions these sorts of statements, but essentially what Essendon said was he was fit enough to be a premiership player and All Australian at the Bulldogs but not fit enough to get a kick as Essendon, and their standards are so high he needs time to catch up. This is the club that hasn't won a final in 5000 days and hasn't finished above 7th in 15 years. That's of course ignoring the fact that he looks like he swallowed a sheep during preseason at Essendon. They have absolutely no idea what they're doing, they're a rambling, disorganised, shambles of a football club. They did however win the trade period once again

Perfectly articulated what I have been thinking.

On the news earlier, he was in for scans, apparently suffering back tightness. It must affect your appetite (for donuts, not the football)
