Pfft. That wasn’t a humiliation. We know how to do EF humiliations, see 2009, 2011, 2017, 2019, 2021

Relatable. I feel like I need a shower with a brillo pad

The cymbal hands are back, can’t decide if that has anything to do with the one ruck or not. Shows potential and should be persisted with but it’s little more than glimpses atm

You need us, 50% of North’s flags (100% of those in the last 45 years) needed a 1pt Essendon prelim loss the week before

I’ll take it. 4pts over there is never assured. The great thing for mine is we were challenged, looked done and fought for it. Same as ANZAC day and not rolling over in that second quarter. Same as giving up a start against the Saints. Same as Jamarra looking like he was gonna rip that dogs game...

First game this season where we’ve got an actual home ground advantage against a travelling opponent having had 4 neutral Melbourne games and 4 interstate disadvantages. Will be a good test for us, particularly the mental side of things which has been our biggest challenge for as long as I can...

Lance Uppercut where are Essendon at?

Indefatigable is a good one for him. He’s a rare combination of outrageous skill and grit. The kick to Gresham last night was obscene, two great right foot goals, he’s ascended and doing it all now. The goal kicking is his last infinity stone.

I was ready to bring out the screens but he’s working hard and doing the right things. Might try microwaving a steak in his honour.

McGovern didn’t trip him?

I wonder if being perceived as the better twin gave him a bit of head wobble and Ben a bit more edge. Seems like Ben just gets to his business and Max struts without cause

Effort is what I want to see. Be hard to play against. Consistent. Mental application. Do all that and we likely win but if we don’t and have had a real crack then I’m ok with it (I don’t live in Perf and have to deal with these campaigners on the daily tho)

Brad Scott hot on his heels

Do it. Not only you do get to give Rupert money, it’s a fox not 7 game so it’s streamed in glorious 4K

Apparently they did a cranial MRI and couldn’t find a brain

They’ll be ready to merge again the bandwagon will be that empty by then

No teeth too 😉

Have to rest Goldy, too long in a plane for the old boy. Dos back to the dos not the unos mate. Hayes debut if he plays alright today. Guelfi in for Goldy and get some actual forward half pressure, he’s not amazing at it but it’s better than we’re gonna get out of a tall and being a Perf boy...

Interestingly if he keeps going like this he’ll probably be the first of the 3 with an AA blazer

Spot on.

Great today, clean hands, intent to somewhat defend.

His old man is a butcher by trade and seems that has translated to Jayden’s ball use. Back to the 2s my boy

Part of me is disappointed not to get the win. Another part of me just watched us have psychological fortitude, heart and system we’ve not seen in decades. Skill errors will always be there, the way we played though against one of the best was great, getting up and going again time and again...

We’re genuinely ******* doing this. My god we’re thick

My god we’re so ******* dumb

The kick to Goldstein was phenomenal

It’s this thing called depth, having quality players in the 2s is something we haven’t had in 30 years so I get you’re unfamiliar. You are assuming a level of health we haven’t had in just as long too so it’ll be a good problem to have if it ever happens

So it’s both? Quantum free kicks now

It was a free against Draper but surely it was holding the ball on Walker about 5 seconds earlier, tried the fend off and didn’t get a legal disposal. In any case, would’ve been rough to lose that, bad kicking is bad football but the rest was TOUGH
