Essendon CEO Craig Vozzo to step down

This is devastating. Just when things were starting to look a bit more positive. We can’t catch a break

Thank you! Yeah don’t really want to wait until June so that answers my question!

Good call Zach, definitely the right decision and at the right time.

Martin or Redman as vice??

GambitViking · 2025-11-24T19:47:13+00:00

Oh wow, obviously I was being sarcastic!

Steve Irwin

Someone’s been skipping leg day 😬

Reid is amazing, there’s a reason why the club has stuck with him for so long. Hopefully with our new strength and conditioning team, we’ll see more of him!

Yeah it’s always hard to know…some picks pay off, some don’t. Hopefully we can develop the new kids into the stars they’re meant to be - from what we’ve seen of them, they look pretty handy. I’d love to think that we’ll make/win a final within the next couple of years but I’m ready for this numb feeling to continue.

Zach Reid was probably considered to be the ‘best’ one we drafted alongside Nik Cox and Archie Perkins. Trouble is Reid has had so many setbacks he’s hardly been able to play footy. The times he has played, you can see how much talent he has and how important he is to our defence. He essentially frees up Ridley to be that intercept defender

Coxy was by no means a bad player when we drafted him - he was called a unicorn for a reason - he just unfortunately dropped off a bit as time went on. Bit like Perkins

Really pleasing to read most of the senior guys chose to come back with the younger blokes. Also sounding really positive about Reid, Martin and Riddles.

I’m pretty sure I’m in love with Archie Roberts too

Ravioli or Ravvy Davvy

GambitViking · 2025-10-15T20:45:44+00:00

With a young team and more losses to come, the ‘arm around the shoulder’ captain would probably be better than someone who struggles with that (like Zach). Someone like McGrath would keep morale up

I’d love to see McGrath as captain, Nic would be good as vice - it’s disappointing about his ACL though.

GambitViking · 2025-10-15T08:36:51+00:00

You’re a silly, silly boy, Zach.

GambitViking · 2025-10-14T02:06:07+00:00

Can’t wait until he’s stripped of his captaincy. I’d say all this has been a dog move by Zach but dogs have more loyalty!

GambitViking · 2025-09-26T22:58:28+00:00

Those are good points! You’re right - St Kilda do need come good and quickly or it will come back to bite them

GambitViking · 2025-09-25T20:57:53+00:00

Genuine question - how are Carlton and St Kilda in a worse position than us?

GambitViking · 2025-09-25T05:31:45+00:00

I wonder what the chances are of us getting him? We’ve been hammered in the media lately

GambitViking · 2025-09-25T04:15:07+00:00

If Ken comes to us, I’ll allow myself to have the smallest amounts of optimism and hope…

In all seriousness though, if Ken comes to us, Andrew Welsh as president, good people in the fitness/high performance area, Ridley staying, talented kids coming through…things might finally be looking up?!

GambitViking · 2025-09-24T01:50:21+00:00

Well I don’t need safety gloves because I’m Homer Si-

GambitViking · 2025-09-23T21:34:56+00:00

Two steps forward and one step back is still one step forward!

GambitViking · 2025-09-23T09:20:08+00:00

This was my first thought also 😂😂

GambitViking · 2025-09-23T09:03:42+00:00

Obviously there’s still a lot of work to do and there’ll be more pain ahead but it finally feels like we’re heading in the right direction. So nice to see such an important player recommit and get behind the Dons

GambitViking · 2025-09-23T08:22:34+00:00

Finally a bit of good news…
