He's really got the yips. He's Ian Baker-Fritsch.

Every year, I end up with post-of-the-year. I now have it. This is pure gold. For me and my household, this nickname will now stick (unless he fixes his goal kicking).

I wouldn't be getting too excited just yet.

We should be far more than 28 points up. They are absolutely atrocious. But they are a confidence team and despite their defensive pressure being terrible they're still generating inside 50s and getting some looks. If they get an early goal or two, or worse, if Daniher gets his hands on the ball, we know we can concede goals.

Fritsch's goal kicking is getting worse.

Gawn, Oliver, Petracca, Langdon, Salem and ANB all playing really well.

If this is our last game, Hunt, Brown and ANB are giving the club something to think about.

our third quarters are statistically our worst

[Flower Magic 776]

Joe Daniher 0/0/0/0/0

His value taking a huge hit.

Sam Weideman handballing to Jayden Hunt for the certain goal is one of the best things I've seen in recent weeks. Weed hasn't kicked a goal in a long time and didn't need to give it. Much respect. 

It was a selfless percentage play for sure - a tougher kick on the run on his right foot at that angle vs Hunt in perfect location - my heart was in my mouth from Weid's heavily weighted handpass but can't complain about the result!

How many first round picks can we give them for him? Too soon?

Needs to talk to a psychologist, he is obviously pressuring/stressing, himself into poor kicking. It is a confidence issue.

Really needs to fix this.

For his size, he does very well in marking contests.

And Sydney breathes a sigh of relief 

[Adam The God 30,706]

How good was Oliver's second quarter? Sure, the Essendon midfield is laughable, but he is close to unstoppable when he takes the game on. Still my favourite player. Sorry Trac. ?

Has anyone ever missed finals with a percentage of 109% ?

 Well probably give it to Collingwood for another of their potatoes.

[nosoupforme 3,085]

The Nibbler is nibbling  sign him up for another 2 years.     That will make his critics SMILE !

[Demon_spurs 1,984]

Watch Daniher end up at the Giants. Cameron to Carlton.

[Perthdemon 5]

Need to be professional in the 3rd to kill any hope for the Bombers. They are in horrible form but can pile on a few quick.

Salem back to his best.

[P-man 13,367]

Midfield is dominant but Salem is in the top 3 on the ground.

[Buzzy 992]

Terrible option Weideman, the exact opposite of what we need going inside 50.

Basic mistakes again and again.

[Moonshadow 17,678]

Dons putting zero pressure on our mids. They are a rabble. Woosha's legacy tarnished. 

Reckon there will be a conga line waiting to leave. 

Welcome to Melbourne, Adam Saad!

[Jaded No More 68,976]

Omg anyone but Stringer

[leave it to deever 17,614]

Be good if Pickett lifted.

He got to close to man on mark so had to kick under it. Didn’t look good kicking to 2:1 with one being spargo

[DeeSince73 488]

That blonde umpire is probably one of the worst I have ever seen. No understanding of how a game plays out, no sense of occasion, just completely clueless. We’ve had more of our share of him this year. 

[At Least I Saw a Flag 5,345]

I hate Stringer ... so glad he missed.

[loges 6,767]

All the play Essendon shot on goal
