CAN BOMBERS RISE ABOVE MEDIOCRITY?
Kevin Sheedy summed it up perfectly at this morning’s Anzac Day pre-match press conference – Essendon is very much a middle-of-the-road side at the moment. It has two wins from four games, sits in eighth place in a 16-team competition and has a percentage of 100. It is flip of the coin stuff. And it is also why tomorrow’s match counts for so much in the context of this season. The result will tell us plenty about the 2003 version of Essendon.
