Statistically, we won nearly every major KPI except F50 efficiency. They just got more bang for their buck than we did inside F50. When you watch the replay ( or even live ) you get a real sense for how badly we lost mid field control when Frampton wasn’t in the ruck. We were smashed in the third when Frampton was off for a while. I thought he was huge and he did it against two in form rucks and also got us going in the last with an important goal.

Frampton was massive for us and when he went off we suffered. Taking Kruger off for Kelly made a difference. Kruger was under done and didn't have any impact. Kelly looked much more composed.

Refer you to my signature. Goes for everyone. Just knee jerk reactions.

I’ve managed to stop swearing and ranting at people, so no excuses!

What a come from behind win. Last year I believed we could always come back but thought the game was done at 3QT.

What a team!!!

Darcy Moore, Nick Daicos and others immense!

Don’t be a winning sook

Ditto, although the tide turned as soon as I threw my jumper off in disgust, maybe the jumper is bad luck!

I did back Essendon at juicy odds at 1-39 and I was worried Essendon was going to win by 40+ at one stage!!!

Poster checks out

I had a gut feeling we'd comeback hard in the final quarter, but it would be left until the dying stages to pinch it. It's crazy we took the lead with still 7 minutes remaining in the final quarter.

Umpiring didn't help us, but Essendon were mostly the better side for the first three quarters so it's something Fly and co will have to get to work on and analyse in depth.

Nick Daicos is made for the big stage. I've never seen a player as young as him burst onto the scene and look so mature and composed at his age. Pendles is probably the last one I can think of from our side.

Frampton is underrated. He can ruck and play multiple positions without any issue. Due to Cox and Cameron's injuries, he's arguably become our most important recruit of the off season. Credit to him for filling the void as well as he has so far.

McCreery was a relentless machine in the last quarter. That burst of pace and the determination to hurt the opposition is invaluable. He was a real game changer for us.

Shoutout to Ruscoe and Kelly who held up well in the final quarter. A lot of pressure was on them in the final quarter, but they defended the D50 well. It deserves some acknowledgement.

5-day turnaround against the Crows will be tough, but morale is high so you can never write us off.

Just remember we have two totally fresh stars to come back in: Tay and Murphy.
(Hope Pendles is OK)

100%. There’s a contest on for the weakest pieces of shit supporters in the match day thread that then turn up in the post match victory thread espousing their bona fides.

As I have I, because that has been replaced by BS knee jerk reactions in the match thread. It’s therapeutic. Kinda like smashing plates.

This 100%. Some of the supporters on the game day thread leave a lot to be desired. I was at the game. Essendon had hands on hips at half time. You always knew we were going to come back and over run them.
I'll be honest Schuey.
I did not know that we would run over them.
Hands on hips at half time. Yet they smashed us in the 3rd quarter.
Retrospect is always a good friend.
I agree, supporters should by now have more faith in the incredible fitness levels, mental toughness that our team has achieved.
I know that I learned an immense amount from this game.
Our guys have a mental courage, and physical fitness, that is elite. As supporters, many of us need to dare to believe. If we embrace it, comments will start to mellow (hopefully).

Yea they smashed us in the 3rd quarter, but hands on hips at half time means they don't have the stamina to play 4 quarters. We were running on top of the ground in the last. They threw the kitchen sink at us in the 3rd and spent all their petrol tickets.

No need for that, leave it on the field (match day thread).

Couple of tackles and a bump may well attract attention

Okay, awesome win to come back from 5 goals down at 3/4-time.
I too conceded we were gone; was waiting for the maggots to find the first goal of final term for them [they tried], then TV was going off.
Sorry that didn't go to script for you, you putrid fluro toilet lickers.

I guess Elliott knows what it is like to go from hero to zero in the space of 8 months; he missed some absolute puds today. When was the last time both he and Mihocek [and Hill] didn't score one solitary goal between them?

Our disposal standard was horrendous for first 3/4s; dropping absolute soda marks, constant fumbling, shanked kicks in D50, all of which were pounced on by the Dopers, and impacted on scoreboard. Sure, they played well, BUT we made them look better than they were.

The maggots MISSED NOTHING FOR THEM to 3/4-time, the charity was nauseating. Ovens & Murray beckons for these four cheating numpties.

Great to see Stringer do his usual vanishing act when the game was there to be won, after his 3rd quarter showboating, gifted a goal after being caught holding the ball for no penalty.

Oh, this was a special ANZAC day win; 23 beat 27 against the odds for sure.

Frampton has a huge frame, and wasn't going to be pushed around by that Hillbilly hick poster boy Draper. Didn't I give him a cook in the last term when he torched that soda in front of goal, from the non-existent free that the putrid maggot gave him.
Hang in there for a few more weeks Billy, until we get one of either Cox or Cameron back.
On the positive side, Will Kelly lasted a quarter, and was solid, without suffering an injury.
Kruger was competitive, nearly took an all-time speccy in 2nd term, then dropped a total soda in third, which had me going ballistic. But at least his arm and shoulder remain intact in socket for now, and he has run some rust out.
There might be a couple of unlucky players to miss next week, providing Murphy and Adams are okay to return.
Think time might be up for WHE...

Oh, and that Moore bloke; if he falls over, we'll get kicked off the park by a tall forward line.

piffdog wrote:Like many, I didn’t think we could peg it back at 3/4 time but we weren’t playing as bad ... Some dud misses and a little more composure going I50 and the margin could have been closer.
Maynard had that unfortunate shank which he won’t do ever again in his career. So perhaps the evidence as there all along that we could make a fist of it.

I really enjoyed Markov, Frampton, Ruscoe and even Kelly’s contributions when the game was on the line as fringe players. Shows that they are well prepared. Excellent stuff.

Feel bad for Hosko - there’s a few haters (I’m not one) but thought that was legitimately a mark in the square (which would have been another soda goal from the square).

Love this club - appreciate how they recognise others. It is certainly reciprocal.

Yep, all that and more.
Go Pies W5/L1; we'll take it, we've just about weathered the storm for now.
