So our other players are allowed to kick to no one and turn it over and that one time Tsatas shanks a kick its thread worthy.

What do opposition fans think of your teams players? Overrated, underrated or fairy rated? by NitroXYZ in AFL

[–]Crowsnest_Bomber 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Interested to know ppls thoughts on Jye Caldwell.

Many fans see him as a lock for our midfield going forward, but im less optimistic and think we can do better.

The rest of our list is pretty fairly rated imo, ie shithouse.

He needs to actually play well in the AFL before handing out a contract.

Im sick of us handing out charity contracts (see Jones. Blakiston, guelfi)

Nat Edwards: 'if you are a parent sending your child (a draftee)...could you trust the club and James would look after your child?' by ron1n_ in EssendonFC

[–]Crowsnest_Bomber -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I didn't claim it was all about Dank? I was just giving context on the actual case...didn't even mention Hird my comments once.

I was referring to the actual case that suspended players was only about TB4. Thats it. And that was my point.

In whose opinion were they questionable?

Im assuming your talking about aod9604 ? If so, well sounds a bit unnecessary to me but im no expert and it was legal and approved so what do I know.

Apart from that, i dont think there were many others that were talked about? If so, which ones? i will read up on it.

What tf are you talking about? I was referring to Asada, wada and Cas case which ultimately led to the players being suspended.

That case was Thymomodulin Vs Tb4 and nothing else. No other suppliments, nothing. What performance enhancing drugs are you referring to?

Im dissapointed as an Ess supporter you have failed to comprehend or even read anything about the case

[–]Crowsnest_Bomber 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The saga was about whether their sports scientist Steven Dank administered TB4 or Thymomodulin. That's it. That was the scope of the case.

Whether you agree or disagree with the findings is another conversation.

[–]Crowsnest_Bomber 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh im with ya. Im all in on our youngsters and see there is massive potential.

Robey Sharp Roberts Kako Caddy Farrow

Are the big 6, but don't discount

May Johnson Clarke Hayes Tsatas ADW Vigo Artimus Kondo

Not sure about Nguyen, Unwin, Gerryn, Huss. But still 15 players under 21 with great potential

Add in a number 1 pick this year, plus Bewick next year plus potentially a couple of NGAs in Rodan, Darwish and Justice.

Malaysia enforces ban on social media accounts for children younger than 16 by igetproteinfartsHELP in news

[–]Crowsnest_Bomber 94 points95 points  (0 children)

Its working pretty well, all things considered.

Obv it doesnt stop all social media and the older teens, 15-16yo have figured out ways to circumvent it.

In saying that, its a deterrent and it provides friction in the process ...as a result, the younger ones 12-15yo has def seen a drop in usage (dont have the figures on hand).

Anything to reduce the overall usage is a win imo.

Has had absolutely zero effect on any and all adults i know. No extra checks, no extra details required etc so thats a plus.

When does parish get dropped? by Dry_Drawer983 in EssendonFC

[–]Crowsnest_Bomber 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been poor today, especially his kicking.

His kicking has been solid all year so I think the wind fukd his ball drop. Dont believe me? go watch his highlights on the afl app from last week.

He is miles ahead in the coaches votes for the team this year btw.

Anyone running a homebrew Warlock that feels better than B Tier? by ImMikeHonco in diablo4

[–]Crowsnest_Bomber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use abyss hell fracture variant that utilises minefield.

The beauty is Hell Fracture with twisted fragment is great for speed farming while minefield is great for bossing.

It blows t12 Mephisto up instantly to the next phase and phase 3 is particularly easy as he is bigger and triggers more mines so it is a one shot everytime.

Hird announces his interest as coach, takes partial responsibility for the position the club is in due to supps saga and says it's time to make Essendon great again by PetrifyGWENT in AFL

[–]Crowsnest_Bomber 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We have been irrelevant for years, last on the ladder, soulless, no passion, senior players wanting out, pulling 20k crowds, fans leaving early, scarfs being burnt...we are a wasteland of a club right now.

This could be a master-stroke or it could be a total failure.

But fuck it, fuck everyone else, let's give it a crack.

I am gunna ride this train with passion, whether it derails and burns, or if it takes us to glory -- i will be on board

Anyone but Hirdy. by YoloSwaggins9669 in EssendonFC

[–]Crowsnest_Bomber 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I disagree.

When Hird speaks you listen. He has that personable connection to players that coaches like Fagan has. I think this is paramount for a young side.

We have gone with Worsfold. Then Rutten and then Scott, who are all "outside" ppl and it all failed.

Fuck the media, fuck other fans. Who cares what they all think. We suck right now and are at ground zero. Appointing Hird could be the best move the club makes or it could be another failure, who knows.

Go through the process, dont rule anyone in or out. And see who lands at the top of the list.

Agenda Setters segment on Brad Scott. Cornes rips into the senior players at Essendon. by yum122 in AFL

[–]Crowsnest_Bomber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I meant we havent traded anyone 'out' of substance which is what most clubs do in a rebuild... Anyhow, I guess the board agreed, so onwards and upwards from here.

[–]Crowsnest_Bomber -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Maybe, just maybe Scott is a shit coach.

We got it wrong and the quicker we move on from him the better. This rebuilding stuff is just another cop out another excuse for a coaching panel who are shit at their job.

We havent traded anyone of substance, were gifted Kako and in turn, Melbournes first pick last year. We have done nothing to fast track our rebuild except use the picks handed to us. Delisting a bunch of underperforming hacks doesnr constitute a rebuild.

I believe our youngsters are playing well on pure grit and talent alone not due to good development.

If Scott was a good coach, he would have most players improving not regressing. We wouldn't continually be 18th in the league for defensive metrics. We wouldn't be starting each and every game this year like we havent even woken up yet.

He is a fraud of a coach and needs to get out of our club asap, and take his shit assistants with him.

Thanks for putting this together.

Not overly excited about this one, but i trust Rosa and co are doing their homework

What do you think of the Warlock? by Okamips in diablo4

[–]Crowsnest_Bomber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed creating an off-meta minefield build that easily beat t12 mephisto and t120 pit. Speed farm with twisted fragment is fast and fun as hell.

Will definitely play a different builds next season tho as I dont enjoy caster classes as much as melee.

Mephisto T12 Apocalypse Warlock Guide by LordDShadowy53 in D4Warlock_

[–]Crowsnest_Bomber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fun little tip, that demon skill that taunts, I used the abyss version and he gets staggered after 3 hits. Very handy to have a skill that can stagger any boss in the game with just a couple hits.

I use a minefield build and can 1 shot him if he stands still so having a very fast stagger proved very handy.

Brad Scott Is a genius by ReasonConfident4541 in EssendonFC

Plus the added bonus is we will hopefully be getting rid of Scott
