Reserves Grand Final
The Bombers were forced to withdraw Scott Lucas and Michael Symons from the reserves Grand Final squad this week as they did not meet the eligibility requirements set down by the AFL. The Bombers take on St Kilda as the curtain raiser to the seniors Grand Final tomorrow afternoon.
The Bombers were forced to withdraw Scott Lucas and Michael Symons from the reserves Grand Final squad this week as they did not meet the eligibility requirements set down by the AFL. The Bombers take on St Kilda as the curtain raiser to the seniors Grand Final tomorrow afternoon.
The Essendon squad for the big game is: Banks, Bolton, Denham, Doering, Doolan, Eastaugh, Grgic, Henneman, Jacobs, J Johnson, Ladhams, Lalich, McAlister, McVeigh, Ramanauskas, Collins, Domattina, Sheppard, Milne, Haynes.
The team has done remarkably well to come from 6th position to make the Grand Final, against St Kilda who finished on top of the reserves ladder at the end of the home and away season. We wish Terry Daniher's boys the best of luck for the game tomorrow.
Mark Mercuri finished off a great season with runner up in the 1999 Brownlow Medal with 22 votes. Shane Crawford won the Medal with 28 votes. Mark Mercuri is the hot favourite to win the Crichton Medal for the Essendon Best and Fairest this season, a sell out event to be held at Crown next week.
