Essendon delist 3:
“ESSENDON has axed three players with confirmation Alastair Lord, Rhett Montgomerie and Cian McBride won't be offered contracts for next year.
Lord, taken with pick No.46 in the 2021 draft, is the only one of the trio to have made an AFL appearance, although that came as an unused substitute last year.
Irishman McBride joined the Bombers in 2019, while Montgomerie was selected in the 2022 AFL Rookie Draft as a mature-aged defender.”
McBride yet another failure of the Irish experiment.

Weren't Josh Mahoney and Dodoro at loggerheads past few seasons?
Mahoney resigned recently and announced into an AFL head office job today... so fingers crossed Dodoro stays
While others are saying they are most likely to jump into the 8, and talking up the difference a full preseason with Scott will do.
They will trade in another James Stewart, or win a preseason game, and shoot back to 2024 premiership favourite.
I didn’t realize they had to do anything to be premiership favourite
I thought that’s the consolation prize for being *smile* for so long and having so many sycophants in the media
Won’t help them. A soft draw papers over the cracks. But it will get Robbo excited for a while during the season though, before he turns on them after they get smashed by the better teams. Last seen trying to find his Hirdy dummy he piffed at the telly last week.
They had a dream draw this year.
Norf twice and WCE on some kind of drugs twice. And they barely beat them all.
Who is their gun kid?
Daniher left and may well get a flag.
I just can't see where any improvement comes from. We turned a 5-goal win against them into a 1-point loss after we burnt so many good opportunities. They are probably further away than any team, including WCE who have a forward.
Some people aren't convinced about our superhunks class of '21, but the 2020 Essington top 10 draft class of Cox, Perkins & Reid is looking mighty shaky at the moment.
Reckon Essendrugs got exactly what they were ENTITLED to once again this year. Twelve months of hype topped up with SFA once more.
Gotta love all this long term counting to nearly 7000, does wonders for helping me keep old fart Al at bay.

Yeah, was thinking the same Tommy. It’s why when media pundits say the now stupid cliche “this club are closer to a premiership than that club” just because they’re playing more kids is dumb. Just playing kids doesn’t mean you’re going to win a premiership.
“Where were the critics then?” Healy leaps to the defence of under-fire Dodoro
“To me, I don’t think that (list management) is the issue.”

I heard Barham defend Dudoro saying that the Dud wasnt the only one involved in recruiting and list managem, there’s a whole team so it’s not just on the Dud. But with that logic they wouldn’t have sacked Rutten, I mean he wasn’t the only coach, there was a whole team of them.“Where were the critics then?” Healy leaps to the defence of under-fire Dodoro

Gerard. Please. You need to read PRE more. No criticism of Dudoro here. In fact, there’s universal praise here for the job he’s doing. In fact, quite a few of us want to start and sign a petition to make sure he stays in the job ( for life hopefully).
