That is actually crazy! Wonder how many after the siren shots to win we have missed over the years? It was only last year Weid missed against Adelaide for one.

Melbourne have lost 6 after the siren though

Yep 2005 round 21 vs Bulldogs.

Leoncelli in 2001 Vs Adelaide was probably a second left on the clock.

And that Leoncelli goal came about thanks to one of the all time great ruck 'punches' from The Ox!

Yeah I reckon the McKenna thing might work in our favour to a degree. Essendon May have beaten us a month or two ago but they are rooted now

Agreed. I think they AFL had tried to be dramatic and made it the last game of the year as it could have potentially been a game for the last spot in the 8. They'll be 15th by the time we get to them

[chook fowler 19,431]

I think Bruce and Hodgie should find a room.

Love watching the bombers crumble.

Doggies and Saints the next 2 weeks will not be easy games. Doggies looked good today.

[dl4e 5,851]

The saints are by far the most inconsistant side in the comp.

Weid missing after the siren against the Crows last year in the NT.

 

 

Not to nit pick but that wasn’t after the siren. Much like Big Max vs Cats in the 2018 it was essentially the last kick of the game.

Watching Channel 7 cover this Essendon game proves how biased the media coverage of the AFL is. If Melbourne, the Saints, North or the Dogs has delivered up a spineless half like that they would be (rightly) nailed to the cross. Instead they keep trying to barrack for them to come back into the contest.

At this rate they're going to prove it all in one game.

[Lucifers Hero 39,336]

Hoping for a small win to the Saints.  Will keep their %'age in check.

%'age doesn't matter for Ess as they have the draw to protect their position unless they in a battle with Coll to make the 8!

[buck_nekkid 5,841]

I just walked in to the Saints v Bum holes.  Ess kicked the ball back and forth like they were protecting a lead.  I was surprised to see them 20 point behind half way through the third.  They turned it over for a goal.  Absolute rabble

Jeff White is probably the closest we have had. I thought the old Smokers Stand was going to collapse that night. 
Everybody went nuts!!

This subject always brings one name to my mind. I hate to drive you to the hard booze cupboard SWYL but think ....... Simon Eishold.

[Dee Zephyr 19,267]

The last 2 St Kilda goals should be enough to tip Bruce out of the Bombers’ canoe.

Essendon are garbage.

They've got Hawthorn, us, and the top 4 in their remaining fixture. 

The would have to improve tenfold to make the finals from here with that fixture.

St Kilda, the Dogs, GWS, Collingwood and us are battling for the three spots at 5-8. St Kilda the clear frontrunner given they'll be 8-4 after today, but they still have to play us, Brisbane, West Coast and GWS.

Carlton a smoky to challenge.

Bruce Mac is finished.

[DubDee 25,438]

Saints haven’t made finals for 9 years? Jesus

they dropped off a cliff after the GF

[mauriesy 7,218]

What a boring game of football Ess v StK was. Chip kick the ball 25 times around your back half, then kick it down field only to have it marked by your opposition. Rinse and repeat.

Three goals each in a half of footy.
