Autopsy goal loss vs *Essendon

[muttley45]

Our time is coming

 

[justroyal]

Feels like we won

 

[Elite Master]

If clarko doesn’t come back will ratts be offered the role do you think? I really like him. Such a good guy.

100% yes.

 

[amaz199]

Kudos to the NMFC faithful that came. Made a good noise! I have no voice left lol.

 

[Rod Stroker]

But did you expect anything different?

For both games I said we were a very good chance of winning, without going as far as saying that we would win.

I expected losses, but thought we'd go close, which is how it panned out.

Need to translate this positive turnaround into a win next week.

 

[Duck the GOAT]

It’s nice to feel some hurt again. Beats feeling numb.

It was weird...I felt less hurt due to the absence of the numbness.

 

[Woolly Mammoth]

If we didn't lost Simpkin and Greenwood= we likely would have got the , a long way from were we have been in recent times, things are looking up

 

[trooroo4life]

Want to win those ones? Turn up in the first 15 mins. Giving 4/5 goal leads inside 15 mins and we go down by a goal in the end.

 

[ferball]

The best loss we've had in many years. So much to love outside of the result. The result was irrelevant. The Shinboners were back today.

I kind of liked this but the result sucked.

 

[koshari]

On reflection it feels a thousand times better to be gutted at a narrow loss than devastated at a crushing defeat.

We have early the right to go ballistic when we start to win.

Was not looking good 15mins into the first thats for sure.

Some of these close losses are really gonna burn in the gut of these young men.

 

[justroyal]

I saw it too late at the game. What happened to Greenwood? It was obviously after play- was it a hit?

 

[Ashley B]

Look, putting aside the result and clangers by experienced campaigners, that was an enthralling three quarters of football.

Can’t wait to see LDU back next week.

Said it earlier we have started being competitive again . It started v The Swans . Now once we can get passed that first win I think and I hope the climb will finally begin. Also just noticed the reserves won again it is where it all starts , it’s finally turning.

 

[scottywiper]

Never again Aaron hall puts our jump on
Said that last week too

Still on track for that priority pick

I'll take him over Jack.

 

[ferball]

Or Larkey can be the leader he’s picked to be and go back and nail the set shot.

Or both.

Yeah I mean we are a “chance”.

But unless we are up by 5 goals with 5 mins to go, it’s hard to expect anything other than a loss

 

[Cool Kangas]

100% yes.

Then the next question is will he accept?

 

[Rod Stroker]

He's a good guy, but I don't think he'd be the ideal head coach. Plus I don't think he wants it.

If Clarko didn't return, I'd want us to go hard for Simmo or Horse. But I firmly believe Clarko will come back. These 3 weeks would have shown him he has a decent list to work with, with more top picks to come.

 

[The acurate one]

We lost again and so many would be happy, glad I'm not in the trenches with you.

*en pathetic.

 

[MinistryOfMajak]

I can't remember being as excited by a player as I am Wardlaw. He's unreal.

I dont think Ive seen any player (north or not) want the ball more than Wardlaw. I have a vision where the ball miraculously rolls down into the underground tunnels of Marvel and out onto Collins street and Wardlaw would chase it and go head on with a truck to collect it.

 

[zoomba23]

Could really use a Carlton-in-2021 type game at the moment. Get the sense a lot of these lads don't really know what to do once they hit the lead

 

[Engimal v3]

Heaps to look forward to. Essendon got gifted a win with our two best players out when they're trying make a tilt for finals lol

Scott is looking down the barrell of a rebuild there, unfortunately

 

[shinboner spiggs]

Mckay was absolute brilliant today.

Makes his efforts in the previous few months all the more frustrating, the guys a good player. Just needs to get the right headspace week in week out.

West Coast are comfortably the worst side now. Comfortably.

Would take a miracle for them not to finish last if we continue to play to our potential.

I kind of liked this but the result sucked.

I can accept the loss given it came with so many possession chains under pressure where players kept control. Wilphils composure is really good. I think its safe to say he has arrived, to think we still have LDU to come back into the midfield rotations
