Ben Rutten needs to get out before his legacy is tarnished any more. Essendon will just sack him anyway and blame it all on him just like Knights etc. Anything to deflect from footy department, recruiting, s**t culture etc.

Shiel just looks like he deadset doesn’t want to be out there.
I’ve never seen a more uninterested, miserable looking player.
Hopefully his business pursuits bring him more joy …

I have never rated Shiel. Even at GWS I saw that he played very well in games that GWS were playing well but when GWS were playing badly Shiel was terrible. He is not a player who can lift a team up, he only plays well when his team plays well.

Scoreboard could have been much uglier for the dons.

Doesn’t say a lot about Sydney.

When teams cover the corridor and apply pressure to the young kids they fall apart. Bombers did neither.

They need to move Essendon out of Tullamarine- something wrong with the water out there - possibly to do with the Tiger cheap flights putting lead into the water supply? Just a theory.,,

That was pretty non competitive i would be fuming if my side dished that crap up this is sorely on the players.

Just gave us the corridor at will applied no pressure and only our s**t goal kicking really kept a blowout away.

Essendon are surely better than that.

Captain played his 200th.. did he lay a tackle? If I’m Rutten I’m saying thanks and goodbye to Heppel effective immediately.

Telling everyone to jam it last week for smiling has biten him on the arse tonight.

Heppel nice bloke,great bloke but he's a s**t captain. when you have a captain who likes to show empathy all the time during losses it rubs on the players and you get performances like tonight.
