Please don’t do that again 😂

Can’t say I understand why this forum loves Daw and wants him in the seniors. He couldn’t get a game for North so not sure what he would bring.

Forward line absolutely stagnant. Not one lead. Embarrassing how lazy the forwards have been.

Absolute spoilsports!

from the modern era… Josh Kennedy 194cms 700 goals Jack Riewoldt 195cms 731 goals Matthew Lloyd 192cms 926 goals Nick Riewoldt 193cms 718 goals Matthew Pavlich 192cms 700 goals If JVR is good enough being 193+ (assuming he may grow more) then he’s big enough

Dominated in all areas and could’ve won by more with some better kicking. Eagles stacked the D50 to shut the game down and slowed things down, helped by some dumb F50 entries from us. That being said. I’ve never heard a commentary team so supportive of a side that got flogged by 12 goals. Amazing mental gymnastics to make this sound like a positive result for WCE and a real wake up call for us. I must’ve been watching a different game.

Viney had kicked a goal every round this season.

Votes: 6. Oliver 5. Brayshaw 4. Langdon 3. Viney 2. Harmes 1. Weid Thought May was great in patches, especially early. Faded out and was soundly beaten in the air and comprehensively outplayed by Wright, who kept them in it. I understand there is a structure and it isn’t necessarily 1on1 all the time, but May couldn’t keep up. Was found far behind the play multiple times.

May? Really?

Always been a fan but TMac has been a liability. Outmarked 5 times and caught HTB.

He’s grub of a human

Im not sure how it can be misleading when it clearly states “club lists” at the top of the page as well as calls out the number of rookies. Average age of Essendon players that actually played including the medi-sub round one: 24y 296 days round two: 24y 246 days Demons round one: 25y 122 days round two: 25y 62 days Adelaide just for a comparison as they have the youngest list: round one: 23y 305 days round two: 23y 201 days

They are the fourth youngest side. But only 0.5 of a year separates them and us.

He was AA last year. Not exactly unrecognised.

And just like the grand final he creates space and opportunities for other players. Langdons opening goal is a perfect example of that and it’s really selfless play, especially for a small forward that may only get a handful of opportunities per game. Pickett created that space to allow Langdon to kick that goal and post goal you could see Langdon say something in recognition and appreciation. Zero impact on the stat sheet but a huge impact.

Long time lurker. First time poster. Fan since I was in nappies.

Is this anger towards Bont serious? Bont made a fair and legal tackle. Wasn’t a free kick and no intent to hurt. It’s a contact sport and these things happen. He is a pretty fair player. Can't say I understand the thinking that he deserves some sort of square up for a tough, fair tackle.

Where is it written/when was it said? Keen to read it and can’t find the article or interview.

Source?

This was my favourite Gawn comments on BigFooty from a Cats supporter. This was before the prelim… “Melbourne aren't that good. Their forward line is hardly scary apart from Pickett - smalls trouble us - and we have a stronger midfield. I don't think Gawn scares Stanley either.”

I agree I’d like to see him on the wing in future. He’s the longest kick in the side with a booming hoof. That can be really damaging.

Football genius and talent expert Gary Buckenara on Richmond at the end of 2016 “I don’t think the list they’ve got right now is good enough to win a premiership.”

💯 so disappointing

About to be blown out. so disappointing. Goodwin a great man manager but terrible match day coach. what a shame.
