Leave Spargo, do not sign another contract, nothing good is coming for this group

I’m convinced this team has no ticker!  They are a disgrace of a team.

[censored] this is agonising. We've regressed so much.

I am very very close to walking from this club, not to another but away from the sport. I can not do another rebuild under another coach. 

I am a member of Storm and Victory.  It’s uplifting.  You expect to win, not be ‘frustrated, disappointed, gutted’ all the time.  Storm and Victory have game plans. Goodwin has neither

13 to 6 inside 50s.

1.3 to 3.2 for the quarter.

Not many gameplans work when you don’t tackle and pressure and can’t kick simple goals. 

Players to blame

Time in forward half this quarter 82% Melb, 18% Ess. Result 1.3 us, 3.1 them!

I would not be surprised if we are the least efficient team in the AFL (or very close to it) at scoring from inside 50 entries and conversions at goal.

Spargo has kicked 2 this quarter

Thanks

if this stat does not tell us that the gameplan sucks what does

We never tackle the arms, Harmes just just grabbed McGrath around the waist and he was so easily able to handpass the ball.

Spargo. Shining light. They have not had the chance to ‘coach’ him out of energised footy. Stay impulsive and aggressive young man.

This is a team bereft of confidence.

They are trying to operate under a structure and with a system that is complete rubbish.

We all know that the talent isn't this bad.

No wonder our skills and decision making is poor.

It’s obvious that they don’t believe in the coach and the game plan. 

It seems when rookies come into our side they instinctively know where to be inside forward 50, then after a few weeks they become more and more indecisive and caught out of position. Is this a coaching issue whereby rather than allow instincts to dictate position the players are instructed to be somewhere which goes against their natural instinct?

Makes me sick to watch this. 

Pathetic. 

Me too.

I'm almost done with this football club.

Even if they did, it's so bad that it doesn't allow for the players to play well.

Dont worry Spirit This group will F5*K him right up only a matter of time

Yes that’s my point. We teach anxiety and indecisive footy. Run, entertain and attack attack. 

Oscar has been good this year, but he bought more candy from Daniher than Willy Wonker.

We are dragging Essendon down to our level.

Those supporters saying Pedo is finished think again. He's more effective than half the clowns out there. Disgusted.

Hogan dropped it.

Hogan looks like he’d rather be anywhere else.

In a perverted way I don't mind losing this one as in reality it means season over and then they might relax and try to play some decent football.... coach very much included

Well done Melksham!  Finally a target inside 50!
