Game Day - Rd18 Ess v. Wce

[GoldenboyHird_5]

haha wathcing this match has just been an entire joke for me. The amount of errors made and how they've made them has just made me laugh.

kudos to the eagles were squeezing the life out of us and drilling us into the ground.

Those who didn't like what I said a couple of months ago, take heed of my advice: the culture of failure and laziness over the last 5 years is what is stoppin the club. It was on show for all to see last week and today.

Laughable.

 

[resurrector]

real shit. thats ****en disappointing

 

[essendon]

bye bye 2009, whats the excuse now ..... two winnable games thrown out the window... the worst two weeks i can remember, another wasted interstate trip.. STAY HOME IF YOU CANT PICK THE RIGHT TEAM ON A BIG GROUND - absolute joke you had to make all the supporters watch that crap

 

[Strike Swiftly]

We are officially shit!

This. Clearly the wrong team was put out on the field. Disgusting performance from a team who clearly don't want to play finals.

I still don't like what you said a couple of months ago.
In fact, I hope you don't call yourself a supporter of the EFC, because you have shown know ****ing heart at all.

We can add to that list Bombersno1 and TheDon35. Won't be long this they come back and start crapping on again.

 

[Duckworth]

Pissweak performance today. Where was the urgency in the first half? I'm disgusted. Roll on 2010.

Ditto that. If we let Richmond beat us (and WC this week)... then i'm happy to concede that we don't deserve to play finals.

Let me guess you think houli and Jetta would have won that game for us? Maybe Bellchambers would have kicked 6? Quinn get 40 touches? It wasn't a good performance from our best 12 players that's why we lost. In fact all 22 were insipid. Stop blaming selectors

 

[netherlands27]

That performance made me sick. Lucas has been a great player but needs to retire. Don't play Skipworth, Lovett-Murray, Slattery, McPhee,STANTON (Mr Turnover) for the rest of the year. Play Jetta, Houli, Zaharakis, Daniher etc....

 

[djharps]

at the start of the seson none of us would of had us top 8, has been a good season bar the last 2 weeks

playing a subi is always hard

we have come along wins against pies,blues and hawks plus win at scg suggest's improvements

but today, richmond and kangas defeats show we still have a way to go

would like to see some fresh faces given a chance over the next few weeks

It was clear in most BigFooty posters eyes that we were going into this game with our slowest team. On the big Subiaco ground we were never going to win with that side.

 

[essendon]

Selectors don't play you dill. what about the 22 that were picked and were insipid

no selectors are meant to pick the right team out there and get the players up for the game, u cant tell me their selections were right for the big ground, u cant tell me they couldnt get any more run out of Houli, Jetta, Zaka, Myers or even QUinn ffs, u cant tell me that Jetta or Zaka couldnt have done a better job than Skipworth who was as slow as Watson out there
I realise selectors dont play you dill but they didnt get it right once again and we had to watch that shit

 

[Sam the RAMA fan]

WHAT A JOKE! Speechless. First Richmond and now West Coast. 2 teams tanking for picks and we couldn't beat them. Very disappointed Bombers. Such a great first half of the season to absolute rubble. Don't think we will beat Brisbane, St.Kilda or Hawks. Only Freo if we are lucky. Hang your heads in shame boys, because a few of us fans are pretty embarrassed to support the red & black at the moment. Bye Bye 09. Fresh start in 2010. GO DONS.

 

[The Dustbin]

Special thanks to Reimers, Skipworth, Lucas & Welsh for doing f*** all yet again.

I'd replace Reimers with NLM and you can add Dempsey, Hooker & Stanton to the list.

 

[essendon]

totally agree

 

[marcuz]

"fumbles" McPhee had a shocker.

For a bloke who racks up the stats Prismall lacks a lot of penetration in his football. he gets the footy and kicks it 20 - 30 metres every time. Hopefully a full pre season will help him run a little harder.

 

[Ben the Gooner]

Embarrassing to be an Essendon supporter today.

Never embarrassing to support Essendon.

The only embarrassment is that that 22, bar Dyson, was wearing red and black today.

Special thanks to Reimers, Skipworth, Lucas & Welsh for doing f*** all yet again.

Was third only to Dyson and Neagle IMHO. Whether that says more about Reimers or the 19 other blokes remains to be seen.

They know we are COMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You will not win a final with Ratten as coach, or with Jordan Bannister on your list.

 

[Colin D'Cops]

Stop blaming selectors

Normally I'd agree with that, but not on a big field @ Subi and our mob coming off a shocking loss to Richmond. Changes needed to be made, and they needed to be made to suit the gameplan and the ground. It was a stupid decision to bring Skipworth & Hocking both in at the same time, even more so because it was played @ Subi. Houli was an obvious in for me, still can't believe he didn't play.

 

[TheDon35]

Lucky we brought Skippy back in. Another massive impact.....

Knights.... You are living in a fantasy land. The mature players at our club are not good enough to take us to a flag. Face it.

Where teams like Melbourne, West Coast and Fremantle recognise the same problem at their clubs and are playing the right players to rebuild, you are wasting time and moving us no closer to a flag.

 

[Childish Gambino]

Agree with Ben about Dyson. Was a massive positive coming out of todays game. The ONLY Essendon player to want to make something happen when he had the ball. He is having an excellent season and continues to improve. Wish the whole team had his attitude.

 

[Colin D'Cops]

Was third only to Dyson and Neagle IMHO.

I must have been watching a different match; I'm convinced.

Bullshit....Everyone is accountable for todays performance - there are no excuses we deserve some sort of explanation for ths insipid performance

 

[cricyndor]

Who were WC playing this weekend?

I cant remember Im off to see if there is abombers game on somewhere I cant find one on telly so far

Hocking and Lonergan were montys to come back as we were smashed in contested ball against richmond. Yes Jetta and Zaka could have got 12 touches but to think they would have won us the game is laughable. We lost beacuse Watson was poor, Lucas was poor, Ryder was poor, Stanton was poor. Our loss came down to the performance of our best 12, not the fringe 4 or 5 that are the easiest to attack or blame the selectors about

Best you get online tonight and book your Bali Holiday before the rest of the Bomber Bogans push the price up in September.....
