Essendon haven’t improved.. Langford has improved.. but Essendon are still soft and insipid 

Wouldn't mind Merritt at the Dees

Bring back Sheedy!

Peptides might wanna take the safety belt off

Dodoro will re-sign Tippa for another year at this rate

I think this might be another contender for worst game of the year. 

Essendrug have checked out, this is just dull to watch 

The Filth would prefer a tough game

Did the AFL actually schedule this blockbuster, Friday night footy contest, not too long ago.

This has been pathetic. Where is the fight?

This game needs a kill switch

Minimum 2 injuries 

Ginnivan has a magnet for arms round his neck.

Am I the only person watching tonight for pretty much the sole reason of hoping Essendon finishes their season with more humiliation?

Maybe some unhinged rough tantrum football from Essendon late in the game to give Collingwood a few suspensions for finals would be good, too.

You’d be happy then Goffy?

I'm bored

Ess have put zero pressure on the pies, letting them run and carry at will, clean and fast. As a result they look far better than they actually are. 

When we beat the pies, the pressure put on them was enormous, they fumbled, poor disposal and heaps of frustration.

That's what we have to bring again in two weeks time

Imagine scheduling this a month ago for a friday night.

I switched off at half time. 
Dogs on TikTok instead. 
10/10 recommend. 

Must be the same goal umpire from the Carlton game.

Was going to say McStay has been quiet, but then...

This. 
 

As soon as the bombers put some effort into pressuring the pies they crumbled and just booted the ball. 
I’ve said it all season, you put pressure on the pies and if you’re fit enough to do it nearly all game you’ll win. We kick straight that game and we win convincingly. 

Tippa's been a witch's hat tonight

He'll get a Joe the goose to celebrate, no doubt

Yes BT 1989....

Melbourne played Collingwood in a final in 1989 the last time

You probably played in the game.

Nothing to great from what I've seen from the pies tonight. They have a few out but gee they have a fair few what I'd call average players

Could BT possibly barrack any harder for the pies???

When Essendon applied 12 minutes of pressure in the second half the Pies looked bog ordinary. 
They would want Moore back and in good shape in finals.
