Out of our misery the season is over
Showed fight at times
Naitanui with an arguably career best game
Shuey and Yeo did all they can to lift the team
West showed a few good signs

Cole's last quarter brain fades
Petch twice being pinged for a down the ground free for pushing in the back, just dumb from him
Sheed getting a game on reputation latter half of the season

Petch was pretty unlucky for those 2 pushes to be fair. First one should've been called back and the second wasn't even a push, where the opponent got the kick away regardless.

+ * the bullflogs

 

[Balls In]

Whole season. Like being tied to a chair and forced to watch a toddler play with a loaded gun.

 

[kane249]

+ fu** the bullflogs

Them being eliminated first week of the finals after coasting all year will be like the anti-2016 run for them

I can't barrack for them. They constantly throw the ball and have a cadre of flogs like Liberatore playing for them

 

[Quinz]

Quite enjoyed that game. Was nice to see us show some intent and energy but ultimately we were outclassed by a team with bigger aspirations.

I hate playing at the Gabba because the slippery conditions just exacerbate our already frail ball handling skills.

Naitanui is an all time great of this club.

 

[Ok Boomer]

Thank * that is over, now can the rest of 2021 hurry up too?

At least the effort was there, I just wish we could see Shuey, Nic and Yeo firing together more often. Also I like Brisbane a little bit more than the chuckers so it fell the right way at the end.

 

[E92_]

Cole and Sheed probably share 1 brain cell. That is all.

 

[wian]

You guys did well tonight, considering you also had to play against 25

Some of the shittest umpiring I've ever seen.

It was almost as if it was pre meditated

 

[The wily weagle]

Nic Nat, take a bow. That was one of the best 4 quarter games I have ever seen him play

 

[Dark Sharks]

Thank GOD this season is over now.

The worst season i've ever endured as an Eagles supporter. Spoon and rebuilding years included. Expectation vs what we produced, oh boy. Embarrassing.



How good is Naitanui in 2021 though? Seriously

23 Disposals, 21 contested, 10 clearances, 53 hitouts, 2 tackles, 163 ranking points from 73% TOG.

All the while, with a potato supporting him as backup.

 

[E92_]

The biggest winner today is football, though.




Jokes, its really Forward Press

 

[kaII]

Incredibly pissed off that we let them get the percentage on us tbh. That's minnow club territory.

 

[Seadog]

+ seasons over
NN was immense
Shuey, we missed that most of the season
Don't have to put up with any more venting by sooky la la's who can't cope when their team goes through a rough patch.

- seasons over
Petrol and Brander aren't AFL footballers
Umps put the boots in late
aah me hearts not in it, everyone else will cover the many negatives, I'm halfway into mad Monday.

He spent all day downing soothers and putting on lip gloss for nothing

 

[footballfreak]

Positives-Nic Nat, Yeo, Shuey, Ryan

Negatives- Cole brain fade, Brander, Sheed

 

[DirtySandman]

+NN

-Whatever

 

[Dark Sharks]

+ Simpson will be sacked by monday.

+ Nesbitt will send me an email

+ We're off to Cambodia again.

 

[Spod]

+ Nic. Has to be an AA lock, surely. Also have to note that he got through a full season without injury!
+ Pray for a clear pre-season for Yeo, Shuey and Ryan. Not having them for so much of this year has hurt so bad.
+ Foley, Edwards and Witho showing plenty - good news considering how poor the defence has been this year.
+ West showed a bit again and had an impact in the 2nd in particular. Still catching up to AFL pace but some interesting potential as a lock down player.

- Umps
- Cole for giving the umps a chance

 

[Rowan18]

Can we please delist Cole, absolute liability

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

Too little too late blah blah blah, but rejigging a gameplan on the run can't be easy. Commentators called it, some players (Sheed) are like robots and need to be brainwashed to get the stink of stopping and slowing down and going backwards and sideways out of their systems.

Imagine if we didn't concede so many goals in a row before pulling our fingers out though. Was it like 8 goals last week? 7 this week?

Call me crazy, but quietly confident for next year. Brainwash them all preseason, get Willie and Cameron fit and firing, poach Brisbane's entire medical and strength and conditioning team, murder BT just cos, and away we go.

 

[Balls In]

Naitinui is one of the best weve ever had. If umpires werent picking it he would be a shoe in as best player in the comp.

 

[bluengold89]

Positives: bulldogs fans acknowledging we got annihilated by the umps, you don’t get that level of catharsis on bigfooty often.

also, making my second block since gunnar, can’t deal with EPs ass licking anymore.

Negatives: sheed and gaff are just woeful, and most of the rest
