And the banjo

Season over bummers

I'll enjoy these last 2 minutes. Even Peter Costello has had enough & walked out.

Bye bye essendon fans. Another year of no finals. A couple of months ago they looked like they were top 4 & playing for 2nd spot at one point. At least 1 part of the puzzles complete. Over to you Brisbane tomorrow.

Couldn't believe it when I saw the free kick count. Sydney could have had a few frees this quarter. Umps have forgotten what holding the ball is

Parker showing stringer how it's done

Come on Sydney finish them off

How an earth did stringer miss that?

The look in the essendon fans faces has been us the past few weeks. Sydney have played this quarter brilliantly

Come on Sydney, massive 2nd half please

Come on sydney

I just assumed heppell would be given a final game in front of the Bombers fans but seems Brad has different ideas. He won't bother playing in Brisbane next week. Probably one of the few Bombers players I've watched

I'd be shattered if Jack left us. We need his strength & toughness still

As bad as the idea to have him doing stuff on the bench r1. Angus had starting working with a company to do with his study. Hopefully he's creating a life outside of footy.

Just want essendon and Collingwood to lose. There finals chances need to be ended this weekend

Why was bowey out of the team to begin with? Was he injured or been dropped? I think the past few weeks I stopped paying attention to selections

Good, get him fixed up. Is anyone else nervous with Oliver & the upcoming off season? Just hope the only headlines we read about him are positive ones

Gee wouldn't the afl be spewing that there will be no essendon, Collingwood & probably carlton or even us to fill the mcc not in the finals. Apart from us, I'm for all the other teams missing

Dam you bulldogs. Why couldn't you win. The door is still open for the pies to make finals

Wow just saw the score. What the hell, gee hasn't mitchell turned hawthorn around.

From what Goodwin said last night after the game, it sounds like he isn't going to put away any players. Against Collingwood I'd put any of our top players away cause who knows what they'll do

Just hearing part of goodys presser it sounds like he is still going to pick the best team & not put anyone away. He still wants to go out & win. I'm quite pleased with how well we played tonight with that team. We are just missing a few things & missing finals will give goody the chance to review & hopefully change some things

It's a shame the Sunday footy show & classified hasn't been on air because I'd love to hear Lloyd's thoughts on his Bombers crashing again

I'm not sure what chandler offers sometimes

And this is why the wildcard round is stupid. Essendon would not deserve a chance at finals
