is stealing.. apparently north of $600,000 and he delivered SFA


worth it. Another Adrian Dodoro master stroke

 

[Groundhog Day]

If dodoro is still at this club next year I'm seriously considering cancelling my 20 year membership. Some accountability now please

I think they’ll call your bluff.

 

[Vander18]

All I can say is that hopefully (1) this is a catalyst for change and (2) we now have people who can make hard calls and good decisions.

 

[windyhill]

Two decades of ineptness. Used to it .

i didnt sign up this year.

i am vindicated.

 

[fanuch]

Curse of the red and black socks. How many years left

 

[Skipper_]

I genuinely wonder what the direction is from here.

The obvious answer is blow it all up but we’ve been handing out monster deals to the likes of Parish, McGrath, McKay and Gresham as well as retaining duds like Menzie so that doesn’t seem likely. I don’t see how we escape this cycle of mediocrity anytime soon.

I feel for Zach Merrett.

 

[jannissary]

that says it all. Yo could argue Sam Collins is under rated, King is under rated but perhaps having a break out season. Witts is criminally under rated and having a best season but Ben * Long??? seriously. bloke is a spud even at VFL level

he did it to us last game too.

not shocked. the usual suspects (looked) to have shockers

 

[Whowants2know]

Couldn't have scripted better.
Same old

 

[Yoda_]

This team will kill me before then. They already have emotionally.

my wife hates how little emotion I show.. Essington have taken it all


I loved this club but half way through the last I knew we were going to lose. Just knew it

 

[Dons4days]

Stringer, Langford and Draper back to the twos.
Multiple chances to win the game but none of them could give a rats ass

Jeeze a really predictable key forward that always runs to the right spot that you can crumb to and that kicks straight would be handy.


Dare I say it, a Peter Wright type?

To what crumber?

Wright has been off all year, very plainly.

 

[brutus76]

You could blow up the Hangar but it would be a waste of a good rocket.

I'm tired of the MEDIOCRITY

 

[Bjchan13]

You knew that end was coming. Error riddled circus between 2 teams that are not in the race this year. Story of the year for us, we had our chances and didn't take them.

Dodoro is still in control of list magameent.. Didn't you hear the good news of Jye Menzie signing a new one year deal during the week

 

[The Donners]

Given we so regularly miss targets by foot all over the ground, it can hardly be surprising that we kick badly for goal when games are on the line. We have a mentally weak playing group and have had for many years.

Nice players is a Dodo speciality. He basically drafted them and now he gets to extend their contracts. It’s perpetual shit.

 

[MiguelM]

Dursma out was huge.

Cox can be nowhere near the backline from now on, has zero idea.

 

[Nicholas61]

I’m comforted by the fact I’m not this knob

Not sure if the kids in that case were crying because of the losing or the smashed telly but was watching the saints game with my young nephew last year. He got into barracking for us that night because of me. In the last quarter he disappeared and all I heard was crying from another room and thought to myself do I do this to him going forward.

This is the shitty thing with this inept football club.. They want change. go and trade Parish for a top 10 pick. Trade Bryan for a top 20 pick. Take 3, 4, 5 picks inside the top 30 and regenerate the list. We won't though. We're enrenched in mediocrity and revel in it

 

[rumply]

wait, 1 goal 9,

 

[WindyHillZephyr]

At least I get to go to the finals with a clear head. No more ladder predictor. I've followed us for more than 50 years but I don't recall a team less interested in success.

Encouraging them to support Essendon is child abuse.
