Nah, it was on Fox Footy last night not the Golf channel. Easy to find!
Plus I was extremely sober last night, damn indigestion. :(

UPDATE: Things ARE happening at Essendon. Paul Brasher to stand down as chairman, replaced by VP Peter Allen. That will be challenged by group of six directors, led by D Barham/K Sheedy. X Campbell, Ben Rutten looking shaky. Surely group of six make last-ditch bid for Clarkson
?

Differing opinion

Is Clarkson the super coach everyone thinks he is or the list of Mitchell, Hodge, Roughhead Burgoyne , Rioli etc make him look better than he really is?


Not being critical of him, just a thought

I'd take their list over a few others

lacking key defenders and midfielders

McGrath, Draper, Parish, Langford, Merrett, Hobbs, Cox, Ridley, Perkins, Hind, Wright, Durham, Jones, Stringer, Redman, Reid, Guelfi, Martin is something to work with.

Already had Smith/AMT retire. Hurley likely too.

Rutten probably had to go but unless others follow nothing will change. Garbage list built by a charlatan of a list manager who escapes criticism

How does Dudoro survive Jim? I read a lot of BF club boards and Bomber fans have been calling for his head for years. Surely the members are doing the same??
