Essendon’s Athlete development coordinator, Marcus Probert, will write an exclusive fortnightly blog on essendonfc.com.au, discussing the big issues confronting players, all that goes on behind the scenes at Essendon, and the topical issues of the AFL.

In his first fortnightly blog for the season, Probert discusses the impact players who kick a bag of goals can have on a side, goal kickers to watch in 2009 and which players can be beneficial in online competitions.
