I think this is the right call from Essendon they’ve been lacking senior talent and parish is the bombers best bet to win a Brownlow.

The issues don’t lie with Zac Merrett. He was the right choice as captain but he can’t put a side on his back. I think you’ve given in to recency bias there Cameron. The Bombers were expected to be a bottom four team this year and they were on the fringes before a catastrophic second half of the year. The bombers need more players who fly the flag yes and it’s not an easy fix but I reckon if stringer can slim down in the pre season the bombers have the perfect opportunity to surge up the ladder

Bruise-free Bombers need to address leadership vacuum before they can get any better

West Coast is financially solvent so they would have to pay out the majority of his contract

Yeah but clubs that are reliant on the afl always have a get out of jail free clause they only have to pay out six months

The Tigers were rancid on Friday night. Admittedly, part of it is due to absences tom Lynch and Dusty are still reasonably important players to their game style. I don’t think mcqualter has cost himself the job but it is more likely that an Adem Yze, Daniel Giansiracusa or even Mark McVeigh can come from the clouds to get the job. Personally I think they should give mark Williams one last role of the dice as he can teach their midfielders how to kick

Footy Fix: The Tigers just killed their season with 2023's most putrid quarter - and it spells doom for McQualter too

Also surely we can figure out a better acronym for concussion tests than SCAT

Kick them out of finals. The afl need to come down hard on such behaviour.

Yeah because concussive knocks are bad but it’s the repeat sub concussive head knocks that play a big role in CTE it’s not a lot of fun

I wouldn’t go as far as to say vindicated. Flanders is certainly flourishing but he is but one example. You gotta remember before he was sacked he was on track to at least equal Gold Coast’s best ever season

I just think every club but Essendon are tanking and thus must be removed from the draft

Yeah that’s the thing about concussion it doesn’t always show up immediately it’s why they have a twenty minute pause

I mean it’s probably plausible deniability. I reckon if they come out and say he has delayed concussion or something then I’d be very very suspicious of the doctors for not running those tests.

I mean they should because Harley Reid will not fix their issues particularly if Ben McKay walks for around the 6-650k mark

Oh for sure I’m not a doctor, but I know the shady stuff footy clubs and administrations try and push their medicos to sign off on stuff that would not fly in other contexts

Normally the doctor is the most well equipped to make the decision on site but the fact there wasn’t a HIA done does not leave a good look.

I disagree he might be on the money here the bulldogs list is brilliant yet they’re on the edge of the eight. In his time at the bulldogs he has not made the top four

That loss was concerning for the Lions because I still believe the Melbourne forward line is dysfunctional at the best of times. While I do think Petracca, Melksham and Pickett are difficult match ups to a certain extent they’re robbing Peter to pay Paul particularly with Petracca spending the majority of his time forward in the absence of Clayton Oliver. The other strange thing that stuck out to me was playing Jacob Van Rooynen as a back up ruck he’s too young for that you’re asking for injuries galore with the young Van Rooynen in tbe ruck
