POSTGAME: Rd 03 vs. Essendon

[Skuit 9,965]

Immediately after the game Gawn was on Twitter. The club's leadership and cultural issues persist. 

[dl4e 5,850]

At least we kept Daniher quiet.

It's not often we get a POSTGAME thread before the GAMEDAY thread...

Positives:

No turnovers.

Backline kept the opposition scoreless.  May and Lever anchored us well.

Hussle around the packs and pressure from the mids and forwards didn't allow them to touch the ball at all.

Bombers are absolute knobs.

Negatives:

Conor McKenna.

We didn't score.

We struggled again with that mid forward connection and couldn't get the ball inside 50 once.

Tom McDonald to cop it again this week after not clunking a single mark.

Thoughts?

One correction, Conor McKenna was one of the positives.

I thought some of the outer fringe shows at the Comedy Festival were appallingly unfunny, this topic takes the top spot

[In Harmes Way 7,700]

Good to see Bennell got through another week and Vanders didn’t break his foot for a change.

Perhaps this is an attempted joke. Who knows.

But saty your relentless bagging of fellow posters, individually and collectively is becoming exhausting. 

The great irony is that you bag posters for their supposed negativity. Ironic because it reflects a seeming complete lack of self awareness given how negative you so often are of late.

I know I can put you on ignore (I have done so previously). But i'd rather not. I don't put many people on ignore.

 You are a long term poster that has contributed a lot of good content and positive energy. Your training reports are a good example of that.

It would be great, in these somewhat dispiriting times for some more of that positive energy.

Scratch match at the G curious to see what that tells us...

[Hampton 22 519]

The short quarters robbed us of all momentum 

[Dame Gaga 2,453]

The players weren't switched on at all. It's as if they were somewhere else.

[Queanbeyan Demon 6,706]

Clearly the didn't come to play.

Has been let to get away with it for far too long.

Moderators need to have a serious private discussion with him on whether he just needs to think about just slowly stepping away from the forum for good. 

It's becoming very tiresome when every thread is hijacked by his constant negative criticism on posters who are trying to have a fair old footy discussion.

Someone's starts a thread taking the [censored] out of the current situation and he comes in to give it a wack.

I've spoken to old demonland posters on bigfooty who are no longer member purely on the fact they got sick and tired of the constant negative criticism from him.

Let's not lose any more good people thanks @Demonland

I am positive he did not get a kick or a serious touch.....

goody under the pump after failing to bring home another win

[Gunna’s 2,102]

AFL going to screw us for something that’s not our fault. Will need to play an extra match later, whether it’s 3 in a fortnight or dedicated round when the other teams get a rest.

Honestly do we care in this year that could still crash around our ears? I am caring less every week.

[Nasher 33,607]

Despite the scores, feels like a loss. I’m furious. Sack Goodwin immediately.

[La Dee-vina Comedia 16,648]

If we'd scored another 26 points we'd have a percenatge of 100 and taken Hawthorn's place in the eight. It's just so typical that we can't get the job done.

A season of practice matches,  going nowhere but development.  Lets do It.   And continue Dee-veloping our youngs.
