Had our chances. Langford will be disappointed but that's life. Great effort by the boys overall.

Stringers night. Calling it now

Only if your in the commentary box

McGrath has been good this quarter.

Parish been very good. We get up he could win the medal.

Both trying hard Duz doing the better of the 2. Prismall with 30

They got on top of our mids. We've been good in the arm wrestles this year so still hope

Talls marking everything. Forward line functioning very well. Degoey getting into it a concern at the end.

Computer says Pies by 7 heart says Essendon by 10 goals.

Loving the effort. Importantly the armwrestle won by the younger players with strong support from some of the new additions. Bring that on Thursday and we can all be proud win loose or draw.

You need to take those chances when you are having a shocker

Not sure my telly would have survived If they paid Tex for the flopping and head throw backs at the end. And Rachele...

Never in doubt. Eat s**t Adelaide!!!!

Few more points should do it

Massive quarter by Caldwell

Woohooo!!!!

YES!!!!!

Dumb stuff aside still a strong first half. All over them really. Keep this up.and we win by 30 plus

I reckon opposition midfields will notice the increase in our resistance in 2024 with Durham and Caldwell adding a lot of strength in there. Finally looking more difficult to play against.

Happy enough with that start. Didn't get ahead of themselves during the week which is good.

If we ever land a Buddy Franklin at the club we'll sign them for 100 years

Well done to the recruiting team too. We look like a better side with Goldy, McKay. Duursma and Gresham - all playing a strong role in the win tonight.

Winning an arm wrestle against a bogie opposition. Very impressed with the application tonight. I thought Caldwell was pivotal in turning us around in the middle when we needed it.

Well done Caldwell took it off that turd

Caldwell showing leadership in the middle

Big stage again! And sadly we are a huge chance to s**t the bed. If they are changing as a group then tonight's a great opportunity to prove it.

I think I was most happy with Scotts appointment as he coaches effort based teams. I get the multitude of problems but if he can ingrain a culture of effort across the group we will be a long way down the path of recovery. This will take 2 or 3 years IMO and whilst last night was disappointing...

I don't know a mate told me he focussed on it and Parish was mentioned. Here's the text message in full ..."Our players won't defend. Post game luke hodge talked through an example in the third quarter, called it laziness and said it happened the whole quarter. Not manning up and parish was one...

It was patchy and unconvincing but I wouldn't say it was poor by our standards (which was my measure). Last night was what I expected against Sydney so I have that performance as good and Saints as good. Bulldogs next Friday will show our trajectory for the season IMO. And I am deeply fearful.

First poor performance of the year and we won't be the only side they get a hold of at home. That said team defense still a real concern - apparently Hodge named names and Parish was mentioned which was hardly a surprise. A return of blue collar Essendon for next Friday please.
