Listening to footy classified and Lloyd stated he would be surprised if Essendon won a game.   I would have thought we would at least be competitive with the bottom dwellers.  [/size]

Hope we can get two games,  Melbourne and Carlton[/size]

One win against Carlton.

Melbourne will absolutely destroy Essendon.

They will still win games. Same as GC and GWS mangled to win games in their first seasons. Upsets happen

How is this relevant to the players and trades section?

Yeh should of been placed in the Essendon section of the forum not here really.

Richmond and Geelong get a massive boost by playing the Bombers twice.
Carlton could get their only win of the season against Essendon, and vice-versa on their second meeting.

I think they will win 1 or 2 .. I don't mind if we get the spoon, No 1 draft pick next year.

I'll give them 2 wins - one coming later in the season which the media can pump up, and another against a team struggling so bad the media can tear them apart.

Media thrives on this sort of stuff .. like flies to shower.

Chances are you won't get the #1 pick even if you finish last. Probably flower you over again and give you end of first round pick.

Believe the AFL has already said Essendon won't have further punishments, so they'll get #1 if they finish last (I believe rightly so)

A team hasn't gone winless since 1964 and that was wit 18 games.

I just don't see them being the worst list in 52 years and actually to go 0-22 would put them the worst team in the history of the game by default.

Yep Gil McLachlan said we had more than enough punishment already.

mmmmm

I dunno.

I wouldn't be surprised if they just gave you like pick 8 or something as your first round.
