Game Day Round 2: Essendon v Adelaide, MCG, Saturday 22/3/25 1.20pm AEDST

[mxett]

imagine if this was in Adelaide. When's the season finish?

 

[DapperDon]

Unpopular opinion, but we miss Heppell. A bit of leadership back there. Tried his heart out every week.

Might as well say we miss Dick Reynolds

Nah, we really don't.

As much as I'd give laverde shit, him too. Even Kelly.
Kelly is immediate upgrade on prior.

 

[Its Manbearpig]

Edwards kicked the most goals for us in this game. Equal with merrett.

 

[SpeckieMcVeigh]

Edwards needs to keep his spot. 3 goals is nice but he's had a crack even when he wasn't kicking majors.

 

[bommer16]

Port :/

Thanks.

Dear Brad,

Dylan Shiel is not Dayne Zorko

He's no good below his knees, can't take contested marks, can't tackle, can't kick

 

[Lore]

As much as I'd give laverde shit, him too. Even Kelly.
Kelly is immediate upgrade on prior.

I’d be curious to see one of our old teams from 20 years ago pull the boots on and see how they go, complete with the beer guts and muscular atrophy acquired since retiring.

We’d still lose but it might be entertaining… I’m not convinced the spectacle would be worse, and that’s sad really.

A witches hat made from glass would be better than Prior today

Doesn't make us become a contender though, neither do Kelly, Hep or Lav

 

[Foxx]

Wish Durham could get 30 disposals a game. The type of player that could dominate.

 

[ghostdog]

Andy, that side, on the othet side of Perko on that side. Ben, that side.

 

[SpeckieMcVeigh]

God damn it Edwards robbed Tsatas of a brilliant goal.

 

[mike14]

McKay's efforts there were just deplorable

 

[Vindicater]

Foot off the pedal by Adelaide it looks like.

 

[SpeckieMcVeigh]

Menzie could've passed it to a wide open Kako, ****ing selfish.

 

[doug85]

Extremely selfish from Menzies

 

[quotemokc]

Menzie completely burning Kako

 

[Foxx]

Unpopular opinion, but we miss Heppell. A bit of leadership back there. Tried his heart out every week.

He was dependable.

 

[srobbo]

FFS Menzie you saw Kako in the goal square you selfish prick! Scott should drag him but he’s a clown & wont.

 

[rumply]

McKay's efforts there were just deplorable

Something concerning going on with him, shouldn't be in the side atm.

 

[mike14]

Hobbs is getting so frustrated. After every contest he's either gesturing to the bench angrily, or to guys not covering their man

Ironic because I'm frustrated with Hobbs too.

 

[DapperDon]

Menzie another who i question why he keeps being selected

 

[ghostdog]

Brutal exposure.

When you objectively look at our 22 out there you see the makings of a wooden spoon side.

The other spoon competitors have top end talents. We haven't nailed any. We need a few bottom 4 finishes.

Agree. I accepted that we should bottom out at the end of last year. Fine with it, but the dashed hope on game day is always disappointing.
