Essendon encouraged to go after "proper" and "established" key forward By 2021-07-04T09:58+10:00 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.
