ESSENDON
Lost the game at the selection table.
Dumb football. Dumb players.
Far too many players are woefully out of form and are making either no impact, or continuously bad impact.
Put in effort in the final 10 minutes, and sweet bugger all before that.
How have we been playing a winter sport in Melbourne for over 150 years, and yet we still don't know how to play in the conditions?
A Melbourne team missing two of their best players absolutely destroyed us.
Just really pathetic.

In the absolute polar opposite to us, the Crom played the wet conditions perfectly and slogged the Saints with another fat L.
In doing so, they kept Ross' Saints to their second lowest score of his reign.
Good to see Thilthorpe go full beast mode and boot a couple of goals in his return from long-term injury.
Honestly, I didn't watch much of this game. Mrs Sledge is a Saints fan and she was about to put her foot through the TV.
Matt Nicks is very bald.
