Previously known as LITD.

Just knew Max was never going to kick that one.

I like the the was a good you think.

Loving these junk time goals going out way. Like old times. Petty FOUR.

Yep

Tracca only good at snaps. Terrible set shot Too much thinking music.

STRUTH....on track to kick over 100. What gives?

Haven't we missed someone like Kozzie adding five goals a week? And maybe Petty can play fwd going fwd. He failed miserably last year but today he's been good. Is Sparrow tagging? And I don't know what's Bowser did to prepare for this game but by golly he's been great.

Not always pretty but we've kicked our average game fulltime score at halftime. I'll take it. Some great individual performances ... especially Bowser. Back to his best.

But he redeemed himself. And shame on the poster that mentioned junk time goals just recently.

Laziest handball by Tracca.

Bowser on track for 44 disposals. Not too shabby

It's no wonder Fullerton isn't selected after that shot at goal. But some decent signs today all around.

Great goal by Tracca That kick by Fullerton reminds me why he's never selected

Not sure if your being sarcastic. But if you are about the fact that they manhandled us, I would not say that was their( Essendon's) fault, Sir. Our players are grown men and seasoned players, so if anyone is to be blamed for them being manhandled, I would strongly suggest to start there. Anything else imho, is just making excuses. And poor ones at that I'm not suggesting for a second that you are BP, but anyone who does, is a complete fool. Enjoy the game.

A fwd line that struggles to accrue 60 points each week with a back line that concedes about 100 points each week. And a midfield that plays like a group of headless chickens ....we are still a good chance to win.

I never thought I'd ever say this but thank you Essendon. You have given us the chance to get out from being the worst club in the league points wise at least. Go Dees. And I hope Fritta enjoys his time in the magoos.

Good to see the ace bring swung but not instilled with faith in some of the replacements. I think if we lose this , Goody definitely won't be coaching the MFC much longer for sure. But I think we actually have this one.

In the words one famous MFC supporter......... whoo hoo

I was going on last year's effort I couldn't bring myself to watch last week's game. So on that I'll give you the green light since I'm not up to speed. Mind you as mentioned in another thread, a garden gnome could do a better job than some of these blokes. Keep up the great support DJ, it's fans like you that keep this club going and will ultimately see us through these current dark ages. Your a better supporter than me.

It's staggering to think that 15 of them are premiership players. And your right many of them are still in their prime or close to prime age. Especially Tracca and Oliver and Salo. Max and May are getting on in years and it's starting to show. But to be five and zip is mind numbing. Wth? And despite the pain of loosing out in straight sets twice how great was footy each week, with the expectation of winning? And as much as I'd love it to return, I'd be content just not to have the expectation of losing.

Might possibly worth a try with Jvr in defence. But Petty fwd hasn't worked at all. And he was there for a while last year averaging less than a goal a game and getting moved too easily out of position. Could we try Tmac there again?

He's so down on confidence it's a worry. Hes clearly better than this but what does one do to help him?

I thought perhaps the this thread was about someone stealing him/ her. In which case , I was going to ask the question everyone else would......WHY? And then add it won't be long before they return it. Hopefully with a couple of larger size ones that we could place in our our forward line as more effective decoys than the present bunch. Cheers. And can I suggest to all Dlanders, that there are some other great sports to watch, books to read, movies to see, hobbies to take up and countries to visit. It's a wonderful world outside of football. A rich tapestry of trinkets to collect, a cornucopia of fish to catch, a mountain gastronomical delights to eat, acres and acres of land to grow things in and millions of interesting people to meet. In fact, Im just about to publish my memoir. " The incredible misery except for a few years of over forty years of being a MFC follower." Wherever bad books are sold. And then I'll write some more screenplays on game days until things pick up. Life is too short to watch the type of footy our team has been serving up this year. Maybe your gnome just simple shrivelled up, died of shame and turned to dust. Don't do likewise. Do something else on game days. Follow a second team even or find anything. You deserve to live life to its fullest. Ps if your interested in investigating the church of Scientology please message me. Na.Only joshing. I'd rather watch us go down 20 zip. Well close maybe. 🤔

What has happened to him? I thought last year would be a breakout year. It wasn't so I thought maybe this year. Sadly he has gone so far backwards, so quickly, it's hard to comprehend. And here's me thinking not long ago, he's our next DS or DN. Silly me.

I'm not saying your wrong JB. It's a difficult job to rate with only 3 words. And I do appreciate and enjoy your work. But according to your assessment, 17 players were below par. Some a fair way below( no pun intended). I'm not saying your wrong either. A pretty damning summation. MFC.....where's the pride? ......where's the passion? ...where's the enthusiasm? ...where is Waldo? At this stage anyone's a good substitute.
