@Wrenny1719 It was only 6 years ago Richmond won a 3rd premiership in 4 seasons.
They chose to trade just about every player with currency.
Not the same
@Danlrcc They love us being down and out, so it genuinely scares them that it could work.
Essendon were 13-3 in 2013 before players were told to prepare for the worst news.
They fear a 13-3 Essendon
That’s all it is
@theindextracker West Coast won a flag in 2018. Also have played in 2 finals series since.
No one had an issue
Essendon win 1 match in 25 and apparently we’re supposed to believe they are in great shape
Make it make sense
🤷🏽♂️
@nickohawk@AlexJDonnelly They got the only good pick out of that offer for basically nothing anyway,
So all they turned down were 2 picks in late 20’s to mid 30’s.
I don’t think losing Merrett for picks 28 and 35 help them in anyway whatsoever
@PrettyPrince519@XanderMcGuire7@7AFL They ain’t trading him for pick 30 and Hustwaite.
Hawks love to chase players but they are never prepared to give up anything
@ScooterMcNeice They don’t have the draft capital to get either player.
They’ll have to offer up players in their best 23 and they simply won’t do that.
Hawks like to chase players but they never want to pay up
@ChrisTootell3@FOXFOOTY Show me where any of those guys said Essendon shouldn’t run a process.
Eddie literally said just today that from his understanding Hird isn’t the favourite to get the gig
🤦🏽♂️
@bombertim55@FOXFOOTY Exactly.
That is telling every club that you haven’t got the fight in you.
No club in their right mind is going to appoint anyone who pulls out.
Scared and Weak men cannot be an AFL coach.
It’s that simple
@ChrisTootell3@FOXFOOTY Oh nonsense.
Then why has all of Dermie, Eddie, Bartel and Grant Thomas endorsed Hird?
You can’t run a thorough process if you’re not going to interview an aspiring coach who has put his hand up.
Whateley has and always will hate Hird.
He’ll always go against Hird
@FOXFOOTY This is ridiculous.
Whateley is essentially saying that Essendon should run a process (which they are), but Hird shouldn’t be allowed to apply.
Then, how is that a process if you’re not looking at everyone just because Gerard Whateley has a deep hatred toward Hird?
Grow up
