Again. F50 entries are crap. Don't think it's a secret that we always come in long and high. Dons F50 setup brought tears.

On that qtr we’ll lose this by 6-7
Next week bombers will get smacked by a real team
BTW - Longs tackling aggression could be useful about now??
Dumb selection move that one
But we are smashed out of centre

The forward line is not the issue, well maybe except King who has been like a baby Giraffe!

Appalling from Mids and defenders, fumbly, no defensive pressure, can’t get their hands on the ball

Billings and Ross OK

Crouch and Jones unsighted

Too short and too weak.

However, a reasonable tactic when the opposition is on top is to go man on man rather than leave 10 of their players free.

Mr Ryder needs to let the club, and the supporters, know what he's doing. If he's suffering from depression, he should quit. If he's "homesick" he should grow up. He's 33, not 3.

Is it too early to start perusing the early draft picks ?

Coaching by Ratten - match ups awful

Have 75% of McKernan's touches resulted in Essendon scores?

Hit outs, possessions and tap ons.

We are supposed to be pushing for top 4

How can this be? The papers and the all footy experts said we were going to improve

Surely the formula was foolproof that when you slap together all these imports they’re going to gell and bring you success

I never bought all the bs. I never understood the over reliance on other teams discards.

We have been brilliant with employing some of the people from Hawthorn. Can we now please get some of the football staff from the Swans

We look broken and demoralised and it's the bloody second quarter of the third round. Even the roos showed more passion early last night.


This was my father's belief
And this is also mine:
Let the corn be all one sheaf--
And the grapes be all one vine,
Ere our children's teeth are set on edge
By bitter bread and wine.

His best game for the Bombers in 4 years.
