‘Creating a rod for your own back’: Rohan Connolly questions the ‘Essendon edge’

Journalist and 3AW Football contributor Rohan Connolly has questioned the physical style of the Bombers which has been labelled the “Essendon edge”.

Connolly can understand why the club is adopting a physical approach, but questioned whether they are in a position to be doing that at the moment.

“It’s important to get some runs on the board if you’re going to talk a big game,” Connolly said.
