Game Day Round 23 - Essendon v Sydney, Marvel Stadium, 16/8/24, 7.40pm AEST

[Schnitzengruben]

Can we sub Menzie off for Bryan?

 

[Snake Charmer]

Why is Scott sweating so much lol

 

[rumply]

100 POINT LOSS OR GTFO.

 

[JayJ20]

Unfortunately the lowest we can finish is 12th unless Gold Coast and Melbourne draw and then win next week.

 

[wichidi]

The fact that Scott sweats harder than the players says something

 

[the PILL]

I reckon this team would of owned the AFLX league.

 

[Dons4days]

Why does mcgrath kick in? He is not a great user or decision maker.

Great small defender but strange choice unless our plan is sprint twenty and kick to a well defended predictable spot.

I’ve been asking this question all year. Should be Redman.

 

[DHRD]

What's the over/under on Scott saying "the boys are hurting as much as the supporters"?

 

[Shanghaistu]

Please don’t come back from Ibiza boys

 

[rumply]

Unfortunately the lowest we can finish is 12th unless Gold Coast and Melbourne draw and then win next week.

Even when we lose, we lose.

 

[Mootsy]

, Zach Merrett. They all deserved a lot better than wallowing away in this

 

[Runk]

My god we’re awful - no fight at all

Next week we are going to be a ritual sacrifice to the percentage gods for Brisbane.

Perkins: what happened to him? He looks bereft of talent, confidence & effort.
Kelly: Do not offer him a contract.

 

[outersanctum]

If this is how we play when our 'life depends on it' then.. wow.. no forward craft, no small forwards, no small forward pressure.. poor conversion kicking for goal.. poor defensive structure, poor defenders, poor foot skills.

Struggling to think of one thing this team does well. We do not have a single strength. Not a single thing we can lean on when things get tough. We have no DNA.

Need to turnover at least half of the list and start again.

 

[Inspecta Gadget]

Why is Scott sweating so much lol

 

[Saintsone]

BLOW THESE campaignerS OUT SWANNYYYSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!

When your key backs are lavarde, weidemen and McKay there is little hope

 

[wichidi]

I know. Let’s bomb it into 50 for something different

 

[Blind Turn]

Kicking into our forward line waiting for Tony Lockett

to appear wearing the sash.

 

[Tassieboy]

Scott rolls the dice late. Martin forward.

 

[wichidi]

Martin and sheil only two players that can hold their heads up tonight

 

[Beerfish]

MY BOY! **** YEAH!

 

[outersanctum]

Glad we got Menzie running around and got rid of that spud AA winger in Massimo.

Far out..

 

[Yoda_]

IT is the hope that kills me.. hang on till half time and then completely fall away in a game sounds awfully like our season after season


It is bordering on unprofessional how inept this football club is

so good, Jye got another year

 

[Tassieboy]

The Swans have given us a good fight, but we are going to do it. We are going to win the inside 50s. That's what matters, right?
