Two great things to take out of this.
1. We didn't lose
2. Essendon didn't win
Strange game. Discuss away.

Juddy had a disappointing last qtr not getting much ball. Ended up on 28 touches when he had been cruising for 30+. I'm disappointed for him, the champion he is and has always been.

That is pretty random, he had a great game and is playing on next year.
Very quiet so far on the post match discussion. I'll try and liven things up....am I being too negative saying a draw is as bad as an honourable loss?
Sorry don't understand the 'pretty random' part.

Let's not confuse being negative with being stupid.

Why are you disappointed for him? He played a great game.
Saved your list spot watto. Next time just punch it through

I reckon people need to have another look at that. The ball was dying as it got to him and he was facing it, pretty hard to punch it through in that situation.

Positives - Sheehan, Juddy, Sam Rowe, Brock proving he's still got it, and last, but by no means least, Watto, career defining game.
Negatives - The 2nd quarter, some very questionable umpiring.
Overall, I am happy, the players did show heart today, and considering all our outs, we acquitted ourselves nicely. Roll on 2015 !!

And would not it have been great theatre if he had have marked it.

Not sure about the theatre bit, it just would have been great!
I take your point - my comment was made in the context of how the media promotes the "30" threshold as something special.

I wouldn't I'm overally joyed, but I am content. Watson deserves another go next season, forget the Hawks game he played eariler this year, he saved his career in this one today.
That bloody second quarter though, seriously.. That's the kind of stuff that makes us completely ordinary against any opposition.

Happy for Watson! He deserved kicking a few (just hope he doesn't get a big head over it).Hey Cringle ....................... Do you still beg to differ?
Same effort that Watson has been putting in for weeks but just in a better team.
Is Sheehan our best kick or just in our top 3 at the moment?
Do you have a headache?

Plenty to take out of this.
1. Fast start against a good team.
2. Didn't lose.
3. Watson gained some belief and/or a five or so pick increase in trade value.
4. Didn't lose.
5. Essendon enter the finals with tail firmly between legs.
6. Likely kept pick 5. Don't tell me you aren't secretly a little chuffed.
7. Didn't lose.
