That was the easiest 50m penalty to pay, incredibly dumb by Kossie.

Our older players need to be on some sort of rotation policy for the remainder of the season. Adam’s and Jefferson and others need games in the seniors this year.

Isn’t this a massive failure of Goodwin? Because we have been doing this for how long now? He’s clearly not telling them to do it but yet we do, why can’t he teach them not to?

The stand rule and insufficient intent rule need help.

We are doing so much right just not getting rewarded for the effort as per usual. Very frustrating.

Interesting indeed. Not sure he can go with Elliot anymore.

It’s always enjoyable watching Essendon getting flogged but when it’s Carlton it makes it a lot harder.

North been loading?

Anyone else watching this thinking Melbourne will rise to the challenge West Coast is throwing down for worst kicking at goal?

The stand rule is crud.

Not much pressure in this game.

What a great mark by O’Donnell

I actually don’t mind that Hawks jumper.

A couple of things I don’t like about the game and others have mentioned this we really don’t seem to be gaining extra support up there. The second the shadows and poor background make the telecast horrible to watch the game on tv, which kinda does my head in. Sadly we are a small club and we need the money.

Anyone who doesn’t think we are dead after today I commend your optimism and I wish I had that but for me we are no chance. The biggest thing for me is we will more than likely lose another match / matches that we should win from poor kicking. Combined with matches we just won’t be good enough to win, no way we can win enough games from here.

Bar a few minutes in that quarter Sydney have been horrible

I don’t really hate Sydney but this is still very enjoyable watching them look second rate.

I assume Fox only had the boundary line commentator at the games so far today?

He is a gun. I really hope we can get him back.

As much of a slog as it is I am finding it entertaining. Fremantle are an incredibly frustrating team, big gap between their best and worst.

It’s a shocking rule or the inconsistency of the interpretation is. I have said it before but the standard of umpiring since the four umpires came in is dreadful.

Hopefully they go back to recruiting duds this year. Agree with you they look to have a couple of very good youngsters.

Sadly looks like Essendon have recruited a very good player in Caddy.

He’s still a handy player but I don’t think he is still one of the best key defender’s in the comp anymore.

Not the first time we disagree on something and that’s all good. Again I think they can play some very good football and I am certainly not thinking this is an easy game coming up. But I think there are a lot of teams with better lists than theirs.
