Game Day Round 7: Big Country, Geebung v Essendon, MCG, Sunday 5th May, 3.20PM

[Vindicater]

And with that we are now below Hawthorn on the ladder again.

 

[Snake Charmer]

Well he was good against GWS and Brisbane and more than **** in the others.

Yeah was a overreaction and a melt. He's been frustrating to watch on the big stage

 

[Learntopray]

We have no forwards in the team today that will lead all day. The only two we have are Brown and Fantasia. Everybody else wants it kicked on their heads always. Funny how stagnant we look with neither of them in.

 

[lmaohelp]

"ok" doesn't cut it

My point exactly. Ok doesn't it cut it for a side that needs to play finals. If we don't make the 8 woosha needs to go

 

[raskolnikov]

Whose bright idea was it that McGrath before McCluggage was a good option?

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

As disappointing as the Giants loss. Thing that’s shits me today is coaches don’t try anything different. Just hope it’ll turn around.

We can bounce back from this though and we’ve played the three best teams in the comp already.

 

[Its Manbearpig]

Really poor effort all across the ground

 

[adsla69k]

The way the defenders are waxing in junk time maybe that's how worsfold selects them lol.

 

[lmaohelp]

McKenna has lowered his colours today

Has he ever been good? He's a joke, he's best does not warrant a spot when he stuffs up it costs us badly and I'm afraid he doesn't deserve a spot in our side

 

[Burzum]

Whose bright idea was it that McGrath before McCluggage was a good option?

Taranto would have suited us more. Still happy with McGrath.

 

[owen87]

Lots of disappointing performances today, plenty of dumb football and poor efforts.

Francis is playing forward out of necessity so difficult to be too critical, but he really needed to hit those two genuine set shots he had.

Also despise watching our players throw an arm out at the opposition player as though that’s going to stop anyone, or is anything approaching an acceptable level of effort.

 

[mxett]

Shiel has had a decent game. One of very few. Stringer too. Then....hmmmmm

 

[Goat Hird]

I wouldn't show them film from this game being that it was a total ****up

I would show them film from port v eagles on how to work it inside 50

that's it for me, i'm out

 

[Tippa43]

Aaron Francis forward was not the best decision.

 

[Shane Heard]

Jig is up for Langford. Completely rubbish

Yep

 

[Shanghaistu]

I think we got ahead of ourselves after winning 3 in a row against Melb, Norf and the Lions. JLT plus rounds 1 and 2 is where we’re really at as a club.

 

[lmaohelp]

Whose bright idea was it that McGrath before McCluggage was a good option?

Clug is an absolute star, I wish I could find my post on here when I said we would regret our McGrath choice. Massive error

 

[Despair]

Such a typical miss from Langford. We produce such perenial losers haha.

yeah we are either making token efforts to tackle or we simply arent strong enough in the contest. We wont win many games relying on outside run only

 

[TheWeapon]

Not enough mongrel and grit in the side, heads drop far too easily. Smashed in contested possessions and on transition

 

[biglaycock]

Well done DP great reward for effort

 

[FlyingV]

"ok" doesn't cut it

Has been better then okay. He’s been very good in a team that has been smashed.

 

[coastalpipeline]

For the last half hour my house has smelt nice, no mutt, toilet works well, I think I'll switch the tv back on....wait a minute what's that smell

 

[lmaohelp]

We breed soft, weak, useless and uninspired footballers. Where did the mongrel and tough footy go for the Essendon Football Club. We are pathetic
