Listening to SEN now, they've said that while it wasn't on the banned list, it's still a banned substance

And they are still a bunch of cheating ****. They can get rolled in the Semis this year and the penalties can come in next year after they've wasted another pre-season.

Jetta is the most lazy afl footballer, Bulldogs would lose out. I watched him live Twice, and he is awful at the team things.

If he spent as much time chasing and tackling as he did playing for frees he would be a superstar

IMO essendon need a power forward that convert bags of 4-5 Gls consistently.
Yes too many talls hence bellchambers and crameri to be traded.
Jd and gumbleton to be the back up to Ryder.
An efficient power forward alongside Hurley and jd would make essendon a real contender for next 5yrs plus.
Also would give some salary cap relief.
Anything for jetta, davey and pears would be a bonus.

Our forwards are not the problem JD is coming on nicely.
Our lack of pace is our major issue and this is the issue the club wil address at trade time.
Guys like Gumbleton, Pears, Jetta will be offered up to clubs like the Dogs and Giants.
We only just signed Crameri up not long ago, cant see us letting him go.
Bellchambers may leave for more opportunity

Agree lack of pace thru midfield which is why I'd like to see colyer get more game time consistently.
To say our forwards aren't a problem is wrong. Crameri should be a 3rd or 4th target, I rate Hurley but he doesn't kick enough goals, and then who do u refer to as the tall forwards.
Jd can't come into equation yet due to lack of game time in seniors.

Ive said all along that that Hurley isnt a forward and should play in defense.
I would play Crameri a bit higher up the ground, he has a good engine. Gumby or JD up forward with the resting ruckmen and then a small crumber

Bellchambers is probably your best ruckmen at the moment. I dont mind the way he goes about his business. So I wouldnt think Essendon would even think of letting him go. I reckon Gumbleton could be worth a look at from teams like the dogs and you a even more silly thing probably Carlton as well.
Read my reply. It is directed at you because you have double standards

Gumbleton failed a fitness test during trade period at the Blues. Don't reckon we'd look at him again
