I was talking with an arrogant essendon supporter mate raving about their high 2008 prospects, and it got me thinking...
i think the bombers are in quite a bad position...
theyre two tall defenders are both over 30, theyre two key forwards next year will be 29 and 30 (i think), and they rely on hille for their ruck...and he was dropped towards the end of the season.
Their midfield is slow, and, take out their aboriginal boys, then its pretty un skillful.

Theyll be relying on fletcher, lucas and lloyd next year, and, you would expect these three to be past their peak as top line players.
Have a look at round 21 for proof- Sheedy used Michael and Lucas on richo (fletcher was injured), and richo killed them, picking up 23 possesions, 16 marks and 3 brownlow votes.

could any dons fans around please post back to tell me of their young up and comers.
and could any non-bombers fans please tell me their thoughts.

Ive tipped bombers to come last for 2008...
