This is a joke

Petty marking now

This one really sets us back

Getting seriously binned

They've checked out, it's too hard.

It's what happens on the day that counts. You can talk up a team as much as you like.

Worst game May has played

That's a winnable lead

This is dead

Nice slice of luck there and this one is just about finished

Did not want to be behind when the rain came down

Contested ball

I don't know quite what to say at the moment. I'd love to say improvement will come but the Bombers are causing some problems that we don't seem to to have an answer for. I thought we might have stemmed the bleeding in that quarter but the ease of which they got that ascendency back really shocked me a bit. Our mids need to get seriously busy and shield our backline a bit. I don't know what it is but whether its a fast or a slow entry we are getting outmarked something shocking back there. Can't trust it today, win it at the coalface and put their cruddy backline under some pressure. Come on Dees, get back into it somehow.

I can't remember the last time we conceded over 60 points by HT

Essendon's gameplan is working perfectly, the two tall combo is working a treat. Great job Scott, he's done his homework.

When a kick down the line happens we need to have at least someone at the back of the contest. Essendon are just getting that easy takeaway and sending it forward.

Spargo knocked himself out, really isn't going our way.

Wow what a Bog ordinary half from Melbourne

That was cruel

Just goes to show if you're 5% off you can talk our chances up as much as you want, we'll get done.

This is insipid

Serious problems right now

We need a goal right now

Kill the ball! Why is it ending up with the one Bomber around the contest?

All over us
