Essendon

[valleys07]

I wonder if Mark Harvey will have a role to play at Windy Hill next year? Would not be the biggest surprise if he ended up with the main gig.

You seem very "finger on the pulse" re all things at Essendon, Pirate. Do you have any inside knowledge or are you just a supporter/member - if that?

Ahh Spargo, I just have a keen interest and love for all things to do with our wonderful game.

Gorringe + 16 to Essendon, Ryder to Port, picks to Gold Coast ?

Wont happen. Essendon first is 20, so they aint going to give that away (especially when no one wants to go there). Port's second pick is 37, GC already have 3 picks before that so that isn't going to interest them. Also Gorringe has to agree to go to Essendon which I can't see happening.

[Coach Bombay]

Do you want both Ryder and gorringe? I reckon you have a pimp list as it is but would take both if possible.

Gorringe and Bass have a really good friendship. Will take something like that or big $$ to get anyone over to us currently.
Not sure we have the picks for Gorringe though
Reckon he will end up with Paddy at Port

Ben Howlett signs on for another 2 years.
Am hearing that Winderlich is also about to sign a 1 year extension

[Coach Bombay]

Good stuff jim, the whole thing is pretty tough on the bombers fans like yourself.

Maybe not. Gorringe is looking for game time. Fair to say he will get that or a fair bit of it at Essendon regardless of how this plays out. I think he is a big chance to go there, if Essendon can get a deal done with the Gold Coast.

so I don't think it will all be about $$$ in the end.

Good news on Howlett, hope the Winderlich one comes through as well.

[Jim05]

Mark Harvey to take on an assistant role.
Dean Solomon keen to come back also but hearing Hinkley is very keen on him

Was always going to happen wasn't it.

I would have liked to see him hang up the boots but full credit to him!

[Hondo]

He is an amazing athlete - what a career he's had well done to him.

No, with all the problems going on he was very seriously considering not going around again. Wouldnt of blamed him if he had decided enough was enough and retired
