how bad are essendon, page-6

PC40, it never ceases to amaze me how the sons of footballers are often the worst kicks. Why is that? My Dad never played a game in his life but taught my brother and I how to kick and I kick equally as weel on both sides because he taught us by making us kick one right foot then the next left foot or we couldn't play kick to kick. Yes, he was a mongrel but if I had've had any talent or heart I would've been a step ahead of the pack. I find it hard to believe that a Dad who played would not teach their kids to kick 1. properly and 2. with both feet.

And Knights needs to bottom out ASAP because once the 2 new teams are in there won't be too many early picks for the old teams. But Essendon went for a bloke who told them they could make the finals THIS YEAR as opposed to re-building so they don't want to bottom out either. Just makes it a MUCH longer climb to the top than is necessary.

Cheers
