I don't know what to say.
You think conceding 100 points to this Essendon side is 'impressive'
I don't, yes we had positives and the win was 'fine' but to think it was impressive?
I'm just not there.

Have fun wallowing in sorrow for the week then. None of us care.
Over 40 of those points were conceded in the last quarter when the game was won
If we did that in one of the first three quarters, I’d be more concerned

We subbed our best player off halfway through the 3rd and Essendon kicked most of these goals very late in the game. It was as clinical a performance as you’ll get. Essendon kicked 84 points against the Hawks last week too, they do not struggle to score.
We just kicked the highest score at the MCG by an interstate side in 12 years. Of course this was an impressive performance at a ground we haven’t won at since 2017.
Most of Essendons goals were umpire assisted or pure arse when the game was there to be won followed by a heap of junk time goals and even more umpire assisted goals...
Nothing to be concerned about at this stage...

You've freed yourself up from the boat anchor of failure Dodoro.
It's only up from here, but it will take some time.

You can't score 160, especially in this era, without opening the game up both ways.
**** me mate, if you can't enjoy that I'm not sure what you can enjoy.

I know betting is for mugs but got 9 out of 10 legs.
You score 25 goals and honestly think Dawson would have snagged one. But no sir.
Last time we won at the G (in 2017 - ended up three wins and a draw pre-GF) and last time we won our first two (went on win our first 6).
Is this finally a year we get it together and make finals?

Finals… I’m booking Air’B’N’Bs for Melbz late September…I know betting is for mugs but got 9 out of 10 legs.

Just think we can only afford 1 loose backman against the better teams
For sure, and at this stage it's Laird.
1 more week for Milera to see whether he's got it, and if not it's time to move on

A bigger deal out west.
Goal assists are just as pretty reading right now:
Thilthorpe equal first with 5
Tex and Rachele equal 4th with 4
Crouch equal 10th with 3.
Something tells me that we may have flogged two teams.
Not sure where this 'I didn't enjoy' the game came from.
I literally said there was positives and it was a fine win.
I just baulked against the term 'impressive', this was an ordinary Essendon team, to concede 100 points was worrisome.
Have we over corrected the other way?
