AFL Autopsy RND 6: Loss to the Pies

[Harlequin]

 

[frodos gardener]

Menzie diabolical.

Edit: just venting, not blaming him.

 

[jmoo wan]

I ******* hate football

 

[VelvetSledge]

Embarrassing capitulation.

And now a 5 day break for Geelong.

 

[TheUnicorn]

I think I’m going to be sick

 

[The Devils Advocate]

I want to enjoy this so badly, why has the Essendon of old beat me down so hard?
Please give me permission to enjoy this. I have this horrible, horrible feeling that we just throw it from here.
I don't want this feeling.

 

[eth-dog]

Embarrassing last minute of play

 

[citizen-erased]

Backline struggled when lav went down
Darcy and dylan. Take a look in the mirror. Soft

Draper too. Bathwater intake too much

 

[Fletched]

Gutted

They are a good team

 

[HirdyLannister]

Disappointing but didn't get pumped.

Happy overall.

 

[Schnitzengruben]

Other than bottling it - I thought we played pretty well for most of the game. But if anything, this to me, says we're on the right track. More that I can say in previous years.

Embarrassing last minute of play

Last quarter?

 

[MiguelM]

Too many passengers.

 

[raskolnikov]

Meh. Zach in and a few less brain fades we win that. We'll get them next time.

 

[MightyDon]

Hope this one hurts, cut the crap and get serious as a club, team selection unbelievable

 

[oldandslow]

This is Essington

 

[eth-dog]

Last quarter?

Last minute especially

 

[dank420_]

Missed Merrett big time.

 

[Jobe Watson]

Menzie and Heppell completely s**t themselves on the big stage in that final quarter.

Draper miss costly.

Parish our only mid that can win an effective clearance.

 

[Beerfish]

Well I tipped the pies by more than that so I'm quite pleased.

How about you guys?

 

[Goat Hird]

What a s**t day watching sports. Got up to watch my bucks choke and now this, ugh!

 

[bomberlegend2007]

Experience, or lack there of, lost us that game.

Here is hoping that is the making of us.

 

[sameolds33]

I kind of feel like Ross Lyon last week. We lost but not by much and they were preliminary finalists last year. And their system is stronger. I wouldn't blame Menzie for that. He's played 8 games. Parish in defence was poor. Heppell too.

 

[Scottie65]

I just don’t know what to say with this ….: speechless
