Game Day Round 10: Essendon vs Fremantle, Melbourne Cricket Ground, Sunday 17/05/26 @ 1:10 PM AEST

[Andronicus]

8 scoring shots and only 1 goal to show for it.

 

[TheFrenchCut]

Nguyen needs to learn that you can't wait for the ball to come to you when it's kicked your way. Has been intercepted at least twice today because he hasn't gone at the footy.

 

[SpeckieMcVeigh]

Remind me why Langford keeps getting games?

 

[Vindicater]

Langford lol. If you can't kick goals what use are you.

 

[nylexbandit]

Why are we even playing Langford

 

[Its Manbearpig]

Langford was done months ago, off to vfl now thanks.
Absolute liability now.

 

[The Donners]

Redman parish Langford Caldwell given sweet fa today
Some sort of leaders they are

Only in contract years.

 

[the_denim_duke]

Can these guys kick a goal, or what?! Damn, this is frustrating. They're doing great work through the middle of the ground at the moment, and just completely unable to capitalise.

 

[quotemokc]

Out: Langford

 

[doug85]

And again Langford

 

[Its Manbearpig]

Bench Langford the rest of the game please!

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

Then he is involved in a freo goal

 

[SpeckieMcVeigh]

Langford missing two gimmies and giving up a goal. Can't wait to hear the justification for why this spud keeps getting gifted games over Edwards?

 

[mike14]

Remind me why Langford keeps getting games?

Because whether it's 3 years or 26 years, as a club we love living in the past

 

[andleanback]

Duursma killed him

 

[Pesche]

All jokes aside.. when was the last time Langford actually kicked a goal? Or his G/B ratio this year?

Leadership.

 

[bombreys]

Langford could be the biggest liability in the comp at the moment. Typical selfish, effortless Essendon player of the last couple of decades

 

[carloss]

I think Langford just played the worst 5 minutes of football......

 

[ant555]

So I understand what you are saying when you talk about how they train one thing and then players don't do it in game.

That makes it even worse because a good coach/selection panel would stop selecting those players.

We are not allowed to play with 15 players.
It is not that simple.
You really can’t not be dropping blokes for dumb.
That is an end of year thing.
It is not really lack of effort thing.
Guys like Duursma are guilty of it as well.

 

[Blind Turn]

Miserable ****ing day. Awful club. They don’t deserve our loyalty.

 

[Nicholas61]

And again Langford

He could play like this for another 2 years and Scott will likely not drop him

 

[southern_crusher]

The prancing pony putting on a clinic

 

[Shanghaistu]

Out: Langford

Unfortunately we have more chance of winning this game than that happening. I feel like I’ve never forgiven this guy for the famous run-past-the-ball-to-get-to-the-interchange-bench incident years ago

 

[andleanback]

Classic essendon allowing Voss to put on a clinic
Story writes itself. Midget Clark will lead with it on first crack
