SEN host Andy Maher has encouraged Essendon to bolster their list with a âproper, established, ready-to-go tall forwardâ to help them challenge for a flag next year.
Despite Friday nightâs disappointing loss to Geelong, the Bombers have quickly become one of the most exciting and watchable teams in 2021 under new senior coach Ben Rutten.
Speaking on
SEN s Crunch Time, Maher admitted the Bombers have got âa lot of things going right at the moment,â but suggested that looking beyond this season, recruiting a key forward would propel their chances of success.

Jeremy Cameron was lining up for goal just before the quarter time siren, with the Cats forward given instruction to start on his line in the dying stages of the first term.
It later appeared that the umpire told Cameron that the siren was about to sound, prompting questions about whether officials should be informing players how long there is to go in a quarter.
âWhy is the umpire referencing the siren, he shouldnât be telling Jeremy Cameron how long there is to go,â Maher said on
