Every quarter of every game for as long along as I can remember. Let's show how limp brained footballers we can be and give up a scoring chance in the last minute. I guess that's what bottom 8 teams do and that's us. 

 I'll just say it again FFS...... Again again and again.

Are Spargo and Milkshake even playing today?

Why are you all blaming Smith? Hibberd gave tippinwuiti all the space that led to that goal.

Essendon on the few occasions they’ve bothered, have transitioned the ball well. But our mids relax when the quarter is nearly over, drop their defensive set up and this [censored] happens. Every. Single. Time. 

[ProperDee 1,698]

Are Melksham and Spargo playing?  We are 2 players short. (3 if we add Smith)

You can hide players   but  how much hiding do we need to do with Smith. 

[dees189227 12,509]

Our final quarter possibly for the season. Just win well melbourne, rub further salt into the essendon team and there fans. 

No injuries either please. 

Just keep going. 

[WERRIDEE 5,638]

Poor quarter too defensive need to kick goals.

Delist Spargo, Smith, Neal-Bullen.  Dumb and lack intensity.

I saw Spargo once.

[DemonOX 8,856]

My god this is a boring game. Can’t hit targets, kick goals, don’t look in any words the centre when playing, always playing the boundary side and players casually jogging around.  
 

This is pathetic. Most of the play is stop and start with no flow or system what so ever. 
 

My son said he just wants the game to be over, it’s bloody boring and they keep turning it over. Says it all really.

Spargo is. 

[Deecisive 1,709]

i dont understand why they do not know tippinwuti is going to run with the ball every change he gets, he keeps faking them out  and running around our players. thankfully he is not destroying us like he has in the past.

[titan_uranus 25,235]

Terrible quarter, the only reason we didn't lose it by a handful of goals is they are just so bad.

How Melksham made it through the entire season without being dropped is just dumbfounding.

Would be classic Melbourne if we lost from here, against a genuinely awful side playing bottom 2 football.

[Elegt 872]

Smith is terrible 

[ProperDee 1,698]

Great minds Moony.

Ugh another goal on the siren.

Luckily we have a good lead. But we need to play like we did in that 2nd quarter. 

Funny reading comments online from essendon fans that are saying how well mitch brown is playing and how essendon de listed him and they get stuck with daniher who has done nothing. 

 

Given Daniher's combination of appalling set-shot kicking, general inconsistency and the dreaded osteitis pubis, I was staggered they delisted a tall forward with demonstrated 2019 goalkicking ability.

Seeing tipungwuti create havoc for us shows the importance of chasing a Saad/Zac Williams type this off season. 

[Jaded No More 68,976]

Well this may well be our last quarter of 2020. Which Melbourne will turn up?

[Kiss of Death 769]

I’m blaming Smith because SEN is blaming Smith, and it’s all I have to go on.

[Bring-Back-Powell 15,527]

Essendon $251 to win. Anyone brave enough to put a sneaky shekel on the Dons?

Yeah milkshake is pointing and telling players where to go. He is like our very own traffic cop. Useless.

Has caught concussion from his old man 

[Adam The God 30,706]

Just kick it to Hunt or Petracca. Only two forwards that can kick straight at the moment.
