Absolutely embarrassing being around these [censored] Port and Essendon supporters, i had to move otherwise there would have been no more football for me.

Pisssss poor performance.

All on our fortress they have dumped a load on us friggen, disgusting.

Lackadaisical performance, drug cheats hungrier in the contest and cleaner.

He put Petty back in the third. He should have been back half way through the first.

Geez we've been really selfish up front as well

I thought Petty started in defence

Can the lights go out?

When’s the last time we conceded 100?

What a shocker.

Too many learnings.

We stank.

Sorry but it's true.

I can't see this team winning a premiership if I'm honest.

Bbb had better have been injured but I don't think it would have mattered much.

Our newcomer in Grundy was the only player to show some leadership in the first half.

Yep we've played behind all game which is inexcusable but especially in the wet.

Lol Essendon can't do anything wrong atm, best game they'll play all year.

Best game they will play all year.

JJ hasn't done much , I thought he would try his hardest... No one today is willing to work their arses.

Ooops yep yeah you're right

And we'll drop about 20% points great job Dee's 

May pulled out of that mark.

That’s holding the ball

Hard to find winner for us.

McVee, Tracc, and Petty's 3rd qtr

Chandler and Viney have worked hard

Surely May is injured 

This has really shown us up. We can either embrace it and change for the better, or just ignorantly paper over the cracks thinking it will all just sort itself out.

Nope just a really really bad day. If he's out there he's good to go. Not copping any injury excuses

This was more Melbourne losing than Essendon winning. We had no run and looked slow from the first bounce. Essendon is extremely mid. Bad loss. Onto next week.

We’ve changed a lot over summer, maybe we just change back to how we played against Sydney?

 

I hope we keep JJ

Ha ha Tmac.

jj in the side over sparrow for anzac eve pls

their pressure and structure is to focused for us... We havent looked like we have had the right mindset and effort all day.  To top it off it's one of those days where all the bounces and drops seem to fall their way.  Though when you put more effort it, that tends to happen.  I blame listening to the end of the podcast from last week this morning and how we had their measure... jinxed it :( 

 

 

May often struggles when he doesn’t have a big name opponent or a bad full forward to play on. He gets caught between trying to do his duties for the zone and manning up a mobile opponent. When the up field pressure drops off he gets in [censored] spots
