Essendon may have jumped out to its best start since the year 2000 but coach James Hird is not seeing portents of greater things to come. At least, not yet. The Bombers were seriously challenged by Gold Coast at Metricon Stadium on Saturday night before steadying in the final quarter to deny the Suns their first ever home victory.
