RED TIME WOO HOO

 

[Happyskeret]

We are our own worst enemy

 

[ghostdog]

Cox can't go with Jackson...

yet.

 

[Jobe Watson]

"Cox isn't a winger he'll be better when we play him in defence"

 

[quotemokc]

Honestly we are playing better than I expected.

We are controlling the game except when we go i50

 

[Nuggs Bunny]

That’s just an horrendous effort from Cox. He’s not up to it mentally. Can’t be consistently making basic mistakes like that

Come on man nobody is defending that.

 

[rumply]

just cause

 

[Its Manbearpig]

wtf? if stringer had freos mids kicking to him he would have 6 goals by now.

Heaps of opportunities to take marks and took nothing that quarter

 

[FootyGuru]

Cox on Jackson is no good

Who plays on him then? Let’s be honest Essendon doesn’t have a single player to go with Jackson.

 

[JayJ20]

2nd quarter

Ess 14 inside 50s to Freo's 8
Ess 1 goal to Freo's 5

Disgusting. Sub Menzie of at HT never to return.

 

[Stopher]

But seriously though, can a team just have a really bad day in front of goal against us...just once? Please?

 

[BomberTime]

It’s all the players we talk about that we can see aren’t up to it… why can’t Brad?
Menzie… Lav… Kelly… Cox… no good

 

[YEMOC NAYR]

**** off menzie

 

[mike14]

So many passengers. So much dumb footy. Somehow our forward 50 entries got worse, and there really is a lack of effort in making and then running through the contest.
Lav is cooked, not sure what Menzies is meant to provide (that was an all time shocker of a qtr), and not sure Cox has the IQ or body for AFL footy

 

[DapperDon]

or signed their contract extension

 

[scythe]

Menzie is involved in too many plays for real.

 

[Goat Hird]

Too many campaigners to name

 

[BomberManU]

Need to get selfish sometimes, at those i50 contests. Take the shot!

 

[southern_crusher]

"Cox isn't a winger he'll be better when we play him in defence"

Cox is ****ing shit and should be delisted.

 

[horj89]

We make the easy look hard and the hard even harder. The decision making and execution is mind boggling at times.

 

[Ambrosia]

Cox against Jackson just had to dive and whack the ball. That's where softness destroys u.

Or you know not just tap it with one hand when you’re first to the ball with the out number.

 

[ghostdog]

Good quarter. Archie impressive. Good to see Martin on a wing and Duursma on the other. Jones and Cox in key positions.

Everything Menzie tried and did that quarter Hind could have done better. Just don’t get it.

Agree re: Hind.
I'd rather dispense with Menzie and invest games in ADJ now Kako's coming.

Caddy struggling to mark to today.

 

[gillon]

baffling how menzie got 3 chances inside 50 then abd failed to score 3 times

One of the worst 10 minute patches I’ve seen for a while. Auskick level IQ.

Scott is at fault for player him to be fair.

 

[Dons4days]

We’re winning if Menzie, Laverde and Kelly aren’t in this team

 

[jannissary]

menzie is a deadset liability
