Beaten in the air, on the ground, in the ruck, down back. A really poor performance

Hunter needs a week off 

he's running harder than most

by that logic you'd drop oliver, too

This quarter alone has been such a let down, I expected a fierce response and it didn't happen.

    Problem is we never learn our lessons and drink our own bath water too much.

    These players were premiership players only 2 years ago. 

    Today they look like the old Melbourne team

     

    JJ down over the ball and cleaned up high but apparently the bombers player wanted it more?

    Not a single bounce has gone our way. Forget it and move on.

    Should have put Gus on the middle earlier in the game when Oliver was being beaten.

    Gus was doing the first ever good defensive job of his life down back on Stringer. Tracc, Viney and the other mids had to lift

    It's worst than that. It exposes our fwd line issues. Having Max back will help but unless Bbb stars for the rest of the year we are in trouble.

    Exposes everything fwd back and mid

    This should’ve been a percentage building win against a loser club. Instead we’ve [censored] the bed and no one is putting their hand up to try and stem the tide. This has been a game lost by poor leadership and laziness. Our worst loss since 2019-2020.

    The zero response is deafening.

    The whole group needs to have a good look at themselves. Folded like a cheap suit tonight.

    Classic Melkdumb, use your preferred foot

    Look it's a bad performance but people need to get a grip.

    Collingwood lost to West Coast's seconds last year.

    Geelong were 3-2 after 5 rounds and 4-3 after 7 last year.

    Richmond similar in 2019.

    60% inside efficiency for Essendon is disgusting. That is terrible for the best defence in the league.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.
