Hopefully the loss against Richmond will give our boys enough of a shock to spring them into action this week. Every supporter I know of was devastated by last week's loss - hopefully same can be said of the players!*

Hopefully they'll wake up to themselves and realise they're not good enough to be too cocky going in to games. I'm sure they'll bounce back. Neagle needs to kick a few to prove his worth.

Young, inexperienced sides are up and down sides.

We've been down for 2 weeks, and we haven't lost 3 in a row all year.

We should get up here.

If we make finals this year.. Then we know we've earnt it.

We had put ourselves in a bad situation losing to Richmond. Essentialy Essendon will have to beat either Brisbane next round and/or Hawthorn in the last to make finals..

The game to watch would be Hawthorn vs Adelaide in round 20.. If the Hawks lose then all we'd have to do is beat Brisbane next week. If Hawks win, then we'd have to beat then round 22 as well...

The boys should be super desperate today and play hard attacking footy..the best way we play..get a win and look to brisbane next week who were pretty ordinary last night.Hopefully we will get a couple next week too.

We should come out fired up, but even if we win there is so much doubt over WC's intentions at the moment that I won't be convinced we've learnt the lesson from last week until we beat Brisbane next week.

Finals still possible since Hawks loss, could of used the win today AGAIN!... But highly doubt we'd be up to it.
