The Bombers need more two way runners, and this guy is one of the fittest in the draft.
Works super hard to find space in transition, and does serious damage going forward.

It is impossible to see Essendon being active in the off-season without trading away some contracted players.

Bombers interested in Miles Bergman 👀
According to @CalTwomey, Essendon are one of at least five Victorian clubs in the hunt for Port defender Miles Bergman.
The 23 year old is out of contract, but a trade is required to lure him back to his home state.
