They just love Bernie don't they ?

Not that you ever can. But had we had sundays team playing the 2nd half style I suspect Riewoldt would be modifying his 'narrative'

Cheese is invariably softer....our gane a bit Swiss too.

Having watched both...was chalk and cheese.

Somehow leads to us getting ahead of ourselves eh ?

There's something to this, and i agree largely but the annoyance is that until we seemed to hoist up the flag ( and it most certainly looked like it ) we were inthe game and had pushed then far harder than i thought we might. That said...i can see the difference between us and Pies against Richmond. This only too well fits the popular narrative. ( Where would we be btw these days talking.... without "narrative" ?) Had we played the Tiges as we did Ess this would be a different flavoured discussion. But we didn't. Until we step up.... we're whipping boys.

Moony fcs...if you reap no interest nor enjoyment from the thread or more the point Essendons demise (and by extension any of it's cronies ) look away ...look away. Yawning not your gig

Theyve only lost to Sydney.. 3rd on ladder. Healthy % Yeah... rubbish ? Id agree they aren't the 2nd coming...but shabby they're not.

Id like to see an in form Jeffy play with Charlie.

Possibly...but one can hope

One week at a time.. Lets go for two in a row

Who else noticed how easily shltlhad chopped up ?

Straight after kicking a goal he grimaced and checked ankle.

He might be a bit more excited now

Very much the idea i was alluding to. Tis all very well to run around all day clocking up the miles....but it's irrelevant. Hitting up players...and the right ones at the right time is footy-gold. If Goody can somehow find the path to allowing good football players to play football ( not a too overly contrived style ) then we have a much brighter future. It's nigh on impossible to transplant footy 'smarts' .

Spargo is a Footy player. That is he has a football brain with nous and abilities to use it. So many in jumpers AREN'T. I wish the lad well and a long and prosperous career at Melbourne. Oh btw...suck shlt North

Pies looking good .. Must go wash mouth out now...

Aye ... great leadership ...make that Jones chap capt eh......oh....wait fmd....all going into shells !! except the untainted ones

All Class Essendon...all class !!!

Had i known Ernest ...

Normally this is a game eldest lad and I attend. He's a Bomber... Even he can't get interested.

I swear that things welded shut.

Two things...whom are you actually adressing ? Secondly i stated quite clearly..id rather he play..and play POORLY which is what he's been doing abd still likely to if OUT OF SORTS.
