I feel really genuinely sorry for Jack Viney and Jimmy Toumpass being dragged into this moribund club....one that seriously appears to have no idea what is going on and where it is heading.

I actually paid up last week, in hope and expectation not of playing finals but at least of playing footy.....haven't seen it yet.

Can you name the Street so we can have a media contingent there? (just in case) 'Chook runs naked down the High Street - blames his Demons'

I kno its his 2nd game but damn its painful seeing Toumpas in 1 on 1 situations

Yeah, he's got no core, is slow, doesn't like the one percenters, but hey... it's his second game.

We got a bloke in Jack Watts who's been doing this for a few years.

Viney & Toumpas will lose all confidence in their playing ability with all those duds out there.

What was Mark Neeld thinking?

Why is Toumpas in the team? - he is not AFL ready

Why is Trengove in the team? - he is not at full fitness

Why is Gillies playing AFL? - he is a meat head!

Why is Nicholson playing? - he is not an AFL player

Why not give Jetta or Strauss a chance instead of Gilles and Terlich and Byrnes and Nicholson?

Why not upgrade Magner? - someone who actually cares

This is my first ever post. I have supported this great club for over 25 years now. I am a west Australian and flew over for the game last week.

I have been a Neeld backer but something has to change now. He is not up to it if he cannot get them up.

Time to go and time for some board members to go also. We need a real leader to step up.

First on the list for coaches - choco Williams.

The worst start to a season can remember from any team ever

Do you mean like how we have managed to turn the club around following 186??? :-(((((

Just when you thought it can't get any worse, it does. I'm just as flummoxed and bewildered as anyone else. I think we're all beyond having any answers.

What makes it even worse is that Essendon aren't even that good.

We'll recover, lord knows how, but we will. You never chuck in the towel.

How is it possible that we're worse than last year?

Because 1. our coach has no idea of game plan or people skills.

2. We have a nice but unintelligent CEO [which affects little things every day & it adds up]

3. It seems we have and have had so little serious footy nous at any level of the club, leading to:

4. Poor decisions re drafting, hiring coaches & everyone

5. People not realising that AFL is a very serious full time career now. [i was slaughtered by D'land posters when I suggested Martin needed to spend much time thinking about his footy, learning to play CHF & ruck, and less time with the girlfriend and the Law studies etc., ]

I suggested we trade Jamar while he was worth something & keep Martin as 1st ruck this year.

Have a nice day everyone :-)

453 to 262 disposals.....

Yes the (near) 200 difference in the disposal tally is an abosute indictment on our Club. I had to leave at 3/4 time as I felt sure that we were not ging to outscore them by 18 goals in the last quarter [and i was right]!

I have been a supporter of Neeld but tonights game was the same failed plan replayed, he cannot persist with this stupid Zoning, our players just cannot play it. We get cut to ribbons with some many opposition players running around loose. If he cannot change his game plan then he has to go. No point putting it off to the end of the year, the only good that can come out of continuing to pigheadedly play a bad game plan is we get a better draft pick for picking up the wooden spoon and lots more severe beatings. In fact the AFL may need to introduce a mercy clause into the playing conditions, like they have in baseball and other games when sides get slaughtered

Biggest loss ever by Melbourne at the MCG.

But the bright side is Essendon recorded their biggest ever win!

    GAMEDAY: Rd 12 vs Fremantle

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
