AFL Autopsy RND 19: Beaten by the Crom

[nipst@r]

The most essendon thing we could do would be re-sign stringer during the week.

So little injuries and we are still no good. Please let's wake up and focus on making the changes we still need to and base selection on development for the future.

 

[Vindicater]

Out: Goldstein, Kelly and Perkins

In: Wright, Roberts and Hobbs

If Perkins is in next week I refuse to watch.

[BomberTime]

Perfect example of Draper’s oafness.

The goal from 35- goes back, nice routine and nurses it through.

10m out… nah I will try and kick the snot of it…. He’s a ****ing moron!

 

[MiguelM]

Need to move on and upgrade Hep Kelly McGrath Lav Stringer Goldy, Lav is he strongest of them and there’s others to go off the list but that’s a start

Kelly has been ok last 2, McGrath has had a good year. I ain't throwing them out.

Guelfi, Menzie, Lav, Heppell & Goldy should not be part of moving forward IMO.

HOW THE **** DOES BEN ****ING KEAYS KICK 5 GOALS

 

[Keystone agony]

Hard to know where to turn to after that

I think its shown weve got gaping holes. Maybe Caddy can save us and hopefully Kako

Liked what i saw from Cox. Durham very good and Redman, Langford

Id rather never see Kelly again this year. Menzie and Gresham are poor

Pulled a few big levers and it didnt do anything

 

[Groundhog Day]

Need to upgrade from tonight’s 23 Perkins, Draper, Goldstein, Stringer, Guelfi, Kelly, Menzie, Gresham, Laverde and probably Shiel (assuming he jumps the sinking ship).

How we continue with the small forwards we have is disgusting

Menzie 0 tackles, Gresham 3 tackles, Guelfi 2 tackles all combined for 2 goals (1 gimme by Gresham oo)

deplorable

Eh, he's a 50/50 kick at every single part of the ground. That's just who he is. Far more disappointing, and this obviously something ant555 talks about all the time, was one of those marking contests on the wing near the end (when Langford was kicking it back out I think) where he was just hopelessly outmarked

 

[Sanj48]

Absolute clown football.
Am I more embarrassed to support Essendon or admit that I got sucked into believing change was around the corner?

They are all similar players who struggle to get in space.

Just play the 2 Davey boys and be done with it. If they kick goals I don't care if they don't tackle.

Thought Davey gave us an x factor we desperately need.

 

[jdstorm]

Can’t believe Essendon finally played Calders at HB and I missed it due to a work event…

I feel that sentence sums up the vibe of tonight

Hope the potential injuries/suspensions aren’t too bad.

Bad loss with some good moments sprinkled in

 

[Harlequin]

Thank you all those who reported the troll.
Both VelvetSledge and myself were locked out and couldn’t get to the post

Essington Broke Big Footy

 

[Mootsy]

can't believe we didn't boo the crows on our home ground.
we should have boo'd more.
boo!

 

[MiguelM]

Everybody scoffed when Scott said 8 years, he knows but time to clean out the list cloggers.

 

[Pweter]

Sometimes you get what you deserve. Can't expect anything from this team when they put in an extended effort like the 2nd quarter.

its okay - the bombers couldn't get their shit together tonight either

So many brain fades. The incessant handball back into trouble in defence was a coach killer. Our skills are not good enough for that yet.

Nothing has changed with this group, yet interview after interview we hear oh how different the place is now, it’s changed so much. Just shut the f up for once and play out the whole season and the results speak for themselves.

Until all the players that pull on the jumper show unconditional effort like Durham week after week, they’ll go no whwre

The whole backline was Pathetic
Mcgrath - ball use all night horrific. Taking kick ins and the best option he can pick is Menzie.
McKay - just weak and not good enough
Laverde - just lost and zero footy iq
Redman - picks and chooses when he wants to compete and thinks he is above actually defending
Ridley - weak in the contest, put your body on the line

All senior players in the backline group and all played pathetic football

[Its Manbearpig]

The bottom 6 is a lot closer than we'd like to admit, they're not that bad of a team

 

[gillon]

Had this game on a platter and folded. We are not beating Brisbane or Sydney so
finals is looking very shaky. We aren’t a top 8 team but if we got there, who knows what could happen.
