Game Day Round 5: Essendon v Fremantle, Sunday April 17, 4.40pm AEST - Marvel Stadium

[Lore]

This entire game has been unwatchable, either for the umpiring (particularly in the first half) or for the effort…

 

[CBombers17]

Martin heard footsteps there I reckon...

 

[mike14]

We've been horrendous, but I think losing Phillips at the start is one of the worst possible outcomes and juiced us from the start

Which you could probably stomach if we ran out of legs late and couldn't cover the height difference, but we've just been outworked, out thought and out classed everywhere

 

[foj1]

Martin just showed why

 

[Call Me Cake]

We need to chase key forwards in the trade period but we definitely need to chase actual defenders.

And ffs make the gameplan more defensive so they have a framework to work with.

 

[The Devils Advocate]

Nic Martin doesn't like marking contests, the one criticism I have of him.
He hears footsteps a lot. Should get better as he gets bigger though.

 

[Lore]

Which you could probably stomach if we ran out of legs late and couldn't cover the height difference, but we've just been outworking, out thought and out classed everywhere

And outstructured.

The only thing I haven’t noticed much of is the fumbles…

Martin heard footsteps there I reckon...

He's not the lone ranger, I've seen Cox and a couple of others do the same and not just today.

 

[nylexbandit]

Our skills are ******* deplorable. The amount of basic marks and kicks we * up is unbelievable

 

[Its Manbearpig]

Atleast we can’t call this a respectable loss. There’s no excuses now.

 

[foj1]

We need to chase key forwards in the trade period but we definitely need to chase actual defenders.

No our midfield is pathetic parish, Sheik,McGrath and merrett when fit cannot do the job against decent opposition
i reckon we overrate these guys incredibly

You mean you don't want another 178cm mid?

 

[Harlequin]

Yeah nah
