playd with no spirit, even with the game in the balance. Players did not care. I have bruised knuckles and things have been thrown. Hurts as a supporter. Can not see what we can do.
Ouch, As I get bagged by the many of essendon supporting friends, Ill just cop it on the chin knowing the only reason we lost is because we playd shit.
My outlook on the season has changed to, let the young players get some experience, and get rid of some of them god dam hopeless ones.
Do we need to rebuild?

OUr lack of forward line killed us; and when the opportunities did present, guess what, we wasted them.

Not blaming Clemo's kick-in, but the scums have at least scored 3 goals from them. =(

Only +ves are the looks of T Cloke and R Shaw (and honourable mention to Clemo, Benny, Maxwell and Rowe).

I now officially put Wowodin into our dud's list. ShXt kicking skills, soft, and what was that OOF kick under absolutely NO pressure? He must have learnt from Williams over the summer.

Now that our season is almost over, MM please blood more our youngsters and don't allow the 2 Ws to play again.

What a disappointing, fustrating loss.

MM just gave the most savage spray of all time.
Personally, i think Taz is only just hanging together injury wise.

May as well look at the postivies, namely the players who will be the future and who showed a bit today

Shaw
Cole
C3
C2
Maxwell
Rowe
Tex
Ben

Older Players still saving us

Waks
Presti
Clement
Morrison
Lika
Burns

Players who will be lucky to be around next year

O'bree
Williams
Woey

Players who are driving me crazy

Tarrant his kicking
Blake C being hard at it
Holland not being on enough
Lockyer being hard at it

I have not included Dids as its his first game back


What I don't understand is we have enough players to be a very good team, we don't get thrashed but out forward structure and disposal into the forward line sucks.

I only hope the return of Josh and Richards amke a difference as there isn't much else that is going to change.

C2 showed a bit?

oh my....

If C2 was anything but fat/slow and unatheletic I must be blind, because he was thrashed by a C grade ruckman. The only taps he did get went to their midfielders.

Thank god his brother looks like he is going to be a star.

We have got so much wrong with us that I have given up.

Mick looked like he was about to burst out in tears... He is coaching with blinkers on and is full of nothing but frustration.

How long before he works out that Tarrant is not the guy you go to with a long kick.

Put Tex at CHF all game and plant crumbers all around him.

Add Lonie to the wing and have him and Travis blazing long with their monster left foots.

We had so many posessions and failed to get into our forward line.

One last question - WHY the hell did they keep going to a 1on1 contest with carra on the wing. We turned over the ball all day. Just leave the guy in the forward line or the midfield.

Tex is worst than cloke. Tex couldnt take a contested mark if his life depended on it

Tex may have dropped 3 marks but at least he had his opponent beaten in each contest.

When you rip a guy from the backline to the ruck to the forward line to the bench how the hell do you expect them to focus.

He is the most mis-used resource on our list next to Lonie.
