Probably time let that joke die its natural death?

There's still plenty of life left in the Margaret one, if you want in.

Oh no there's not

Kong isn't really picking up what i am laying out but that's ok. Last game tonight you reckon?

Still curious that there has not been anyone else seriously linked to him . If it was like Red Dog with someone chasing hard it may have been done .

DERO still carries his feminist hat for Josh Green. You got years before he let's go.

Who, me or Zach

Yes

 

[gillon]

We don't deserve this guy

 

[andleanback]

I hope he’s looking a few in the eye before they go away on break. Shape up or ship out.

 

[Jobe Watson]

Spent all night chasing cheap kicks but I don't blame him. He's the only one that can hit a target forward of centre.

 

[brutus76]

one of the few that actually GIVES A FRUIT

And in the mirror.

There were a few contests early on where he was half hearted too.

Yeh definitely no one escapes criticism from tonight’s first half.

So many players just completely avoiding contact with pitiful chasing. I am just sick of the talk of how disappointed the players are, how they were going to show effort etc. etc. etc.

Talk is cheap.

 

[MarkJohnson#1]

Yeh he got a few cheap kicks but he was the only one that actually gave half a sh1t out there tonight…

Talk is very cheap after what they served up week, then followed by the first half tonight.

 

[TheFrenchCut]

He's had a good year and he is on the right track.

But it is very funny seeing him interviewed about how he's sick of finishing up in August and how the club needs to stop being mediocre. While at same the time the screen is showing he had three contested possessions.

Named in the AA squad - WELL DONE ZACH!

Not sure he makes the 22

Last couple of weeks may hurt him, due to the team being terrible.

 

[eth-dog]

Most likely of the three to make it.

 

[jannissary]

interesting read this, really highlights how excellent he is as a player.



(also note that pidge & reddog are included in this. for essendon specifically, which highlights just how good some of our players are. from what i can tell jordan ridley
