It’s extraordinary. Even GWS managed to kick at least one goal in 3 out of 4 quarters in the 2019 GF.

- Essendon still haven't won a final since 2004
- First team to go goalless in a half of a final since 1956
- Lowest Essendon score in a final since 1908

I was going to suggest off-site somewhere but even I'm not that "brave"..........

In terms of beating other teams, yes, unfortunately. They beat some quality teams, but are not finals standard.

We will return, though, better drilled/coached in 2022.

so far * supporters blame weather and umpires for the loss.............aspects of footballing inside their control seem to be exempt from assessment.......

Can relax and enjoy the finals now.. none of those 6 teams bother me. Good luck to them all

Not for me. 1 still to go. Would hate for Geelong to win. Hopefully Melbourne smash them in 2 weeks

Wasn't a good second half at all, but they made the 8. Those in glass houses etc etc

I just find it embarrassing that we're yukking it up because a team lost a final, whilst we search for our fifth coach in nine years.

25936 days since a team went goaless in the 2nd half of a final..

Yeah, but it’s * so no rules apply.

if you're embarrassed, perhaps learn to process it - others have optional ways of getting through difficult times as a supporter of a sporting club........
