Autopsy 2022 Rd 13 Blues rain on Bomber's parade - 'Sheedy blames AFL for brave loss and demands an apology'

[BlueZombie]

I just want to see Weitering, Young and Marchbank together…please

We all do brother!

Good teams win crap games like tonight.

Essendon should've checked with Collingwood before asking to play Carlton in their anniversary match.

let's play the Tigers in their anniversary too please

 

[Accidental genius]

seriously that stringer and * are a match made in heaven...bloody flog

4 goal win in the wet, against a side with every reason to bring their best (which was still pretty shite).

Would have loved it to be a bigger win, and despite kicking 12.8 I reckon we missed 3-4 regulation goals. Could have easily been 40+ despite not playing our best.

Carried by some of the lesser lights too, in my book. Newnes, Newman, Young, Hewett, Kennedy - did a lot of the heavy lifting.

Boyd also showed why he should be in the side, we just need to find a way to get the ball into his hands more often. 6 touches not enough, but get that into the mid teens and he's gonna do some damage.

Best thing about it though - seeing that we have a coach who gets pissed off late in a game, even when we're extending the lead every quarter. Doing enough isn't enough for Vossy, he's got his eye on the big prize.

Wow watch out

I'm not too worried about the way we played. It was slippery as anything out there.

Doc, Saad and Hewett excellent.

Out of the lesserlights, some fantastic moments for Young, Cottrell, Newnes.

Martin did a lot of good things. Owies solid. Plowman decent.

Marchy stood up and got through. Very important.

Wouldn’t call the last a fade out. Just shut the game down. Was a professional display

I saw us constantly miss targets, make poor decisions with ball in hand, make poor decisions on when to go fast/slow and not score a goal against the team in 16th position on the ladder.

Our ability to defend in these situations has been really solid all year, but I can’t help but feel a lot of these issues are mental with the group.

We continue to win ugly games of footy.. this is a step in the right direction

I used to hope that Boekhorst had a better career than Laverde . Now I hope Laverde plays 300 games.

Another essendon moment ruined by us!

Let's party like it's (September 18) 1999!

Sam De Koning down in the Blues rooms.

Sam to Blues confirmed

That was shithouse. At least we were on the right end of that shithouse game though.

Should’ve been a 10 goal win. Essendon are absolutely trash.

Worst final quarter of footy we’ve played this year and one of the poorest I’ve ever seen live

But a wins a win

Things to work on:

- centre clearance - actually got smashed and a better team would have made us pay.

- second halves particularly from halfway through the third quarter onwards. As we get tired our decision making and adherence to game plan seems to go rather downhill.

Newman was bloody excellent tonight, relishes those conditions.

Walsh is the cleanest player in the AFL no doubt in my mind, absolute freak.

We are a much better team with Harry in it, just Weitering to add now.

Good win, never in trouble and the conditions spoiled the last half IMO.

Well it's only fair considering how they effed up '93 for us!

 

[Jimmae]

Holy shit we have no control over our rooms

 

[Ald Gardiner]

Always great beating Essendon but not overly satisfied with the last quarter and back half of the third.

Bog average last 1.5 qtrs, lucky they’re garbage

[Magical_EddieBetts]

Not our best performance but ill take it, love the spray from Vossy at 3qtr time - much needed!! Thank you baggers for making my bday with a win over those scumbags!!

Btw after watching that cringe worthy “performance” by Heppell pre game, so grateful Crippa is our skipper!!!

 

[mochacinolatte]

Essendon are so shit

Couldn't agree more mate.

 

[Malifice]

We play like that over the next 2 months we're in for a reality check.

I'll take the win, but Jeeze it was ugly. Voss will be furious.

 

[BlueZombie]

Who are the 3 idiots who thought Chez played well?
