That kick from the centre after we hit the front should've gone inside 50. Sexton on the wing wasn't the option.

OR Sexton should have grabbed it and swung it deep inside 50.
Wrong mindset there.
Just missing a few stars - AMT + Stringer the difference.
The camera was hard to tell weather he could get it. Would like to see the replay.

Thought the exact same thing. Why did he just leave it? Bit strange

Really enjoyed the game. Moved the ball quicker and looked dangerous inside 50. Ben King’s improvement since the JLT is frightening. Good signs
That's our highest score of the year by 12 points.

I’m happy with the effort, coming of age game for Ben King
Commiserations guys. I hope your players learn heaps from the devastatingly close losses.

Him deep makes Wright work up the ground more which actually works better. We could play 3 talls easily if wright keeps improving his tank
Wowee, what a game, and what a breakout for King! Fantastic effort by your mob today, unlucky to lose. At least it helps your priority pick case, every cloud has a silver lining.
Well it will be we continue to suffer mass injuries every season and field a half-strength team every week but I get what you’re saying
Would hope so.
Would have to be a great chance for a Rising Star nom with that effort.
Replace a Dawson, Heron, Joyce and Ellis with a Bowes, Ainsworth, Rowell and Anderson, and we win that game comfortably IMO.
Didn't see the game- at work
Did another fat midfielder wipe us after half time?
Stringer maybe?
He was next in line to get his name on the cup after Reimers I guess
I might live long enough to see us close down one of those types of players
-but probably not

Unfortunate loss there, just a few poor decisions in the last couple of minutes and missed calls like the bombers throw over the head on the wing. Impressive effort to stay in it right up until the last minute, great game by King too, really hope he re-signs long term. With a few of your injured payers back next year there's some serious improvement to come.

Side note: that was the loudest and most vocal our fans have been in years! I could hear the Gold Coast chant ringing around Metricon Stadium. Well done to those who contributed to getting behind the boys!
What was the crowd split approximately? The commentators were saying it was nearly all Essendon.
Could hear and see all majority bombers fans on the TV and from the commentators remarks.
That was almost a 4 quarter effort - well done tonight lads.
Old suns would have rolled over in the last quarter and got done by 40 - boys dug in and never gave up.
Chins up lads - future is bright if they keep bringing that effort

Was 90% bombers fans - once they got a run on in the 3rd they carried them
The commentators view is the Eastern Stand- usually filled with opposition supporters
But there are a huge number of expat Essendon supporters here on the Coast for some reason
Burleigh Bombers are like an EFC coterie club
