How was Hind running into that open goal.

Had all the time and space in the world.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

The bravest 70 point loss I've ever seen

It was 69 points. It got to 70 and Essendon activated their 'enough is enough' mantra to score the next behind.

Perfect pass to the bloke in row A

Bravest 69 point loss you’ll see.

It’s an amazing midfield trio. Rozee, Butters, Hornet. Rozee the oldest and has only just turned 24. Personally, I think they are doomed with “finals are scary” Hinckley, but they have the drivers.

 

[Blues177]

Awaiting for calls for Golden boy to return as coach. Robbo penning something now.

Kevin Sheedy

 

[thefrog]

Not sending anyone to Rozee or JHF was a bold decision from Brad Scott.

Seen a lot of praise for Ben McKay

beating his man one on one, which I’ll pay… but his direct turnovers and spoils directly to opposition that end in goals are killing Essendon right now.

Port are no threat to us!

Dan Houston to kick the winning goal philreich

I am very disappointed in you. Your post suggests that * stood a chance last night.

 

[Wickzki]

Anyone been over to the * board?

Bigger question, did a HAZMAT suit help?

 

[Wickzki]

Did he play tonight? I'm only watching with one eye on the TV but I don't remember seeing him ... honestly.

It was weird seeing Fisher trotting around again for North today. How much of his career has consistent of getting flogged? Starting 22 in a struggling side seems to be a position.

Good enough to be in the AFL.

Not good enough to demand a place in a good side.

Zac is an example of this but there's plenty of them in our league.

At least he earns a bigger payday than most of us will ever likely see. Good gig.

I still cannot believe he ****ed that up. He had all the space in the world, more space than you have any right to get on a footy field at AFL level. He could've walked it within 20. He could've swung around on the snap, if he was concerned about accuracy. He could've kicked from where he was.

There are blokes at every level of footy who make that mistake, but not with that much space and time available. He did about the only possible thing which doesn't result in even a score in that situation.

It was harder to do what he did than to kick the goal.

Was a bit like Ben Simmons not taking the shot when he was at Philly.

It's not helpful for them that Ridley has re-aggravated his injury at training this week. You'd suspect that he will be out for quite a while.

He is better than Saad though so all good. Just ask the dopers.

Norf supporters will be feeling like crap for the next 10 years losing a generational talent like JHF

[Benaly28]

Setterfield still getting a run, poor bastard.

Didn’t wish this on him …

Yep.

I remember when he left how some supporters were spewing.

Didn't see last night's game but all week I kept hearing shit about the Essendon edge and then they go and lose by 11. Waking up to see this just made me love Carlton that little bit more today. We're hard af.

 

[JustaBattler]

Essendon looked like Carlton did last year in the run of losses - too many things just didn't click too often. they arent a bad as the scoreline suggests.
