Going to my friends sons 1st birthday. And not really fussed at all I can't watch it. Will check the scores later but I'm expecting a loss. Just hope we can be competitive

I've stopped watching the footy shows just because it's doom & gloom but I do watch footy classified on Mondays just to hear lloydo moan about the dons failing again

So they get in McKay & Goldstein & still miss finals. Wonder if Goldstein will retire now. Anyway essendon fans are going nuts on social media

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

I know what happened to trac was terrible & he suffered but maybe he would like to have a conversation with Jason winderlich & the massive uphill battle he faces.

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

I'm pretty sure I've heard Max say he told goody to leave LJ in the centre square because he was dominating at that point

Media people are saying why hasn't he commented. It will be interesting to see if he's on afl 360 next Tuesday. But I suspect if he did say he wants to stay at Melbourne & he loves the club people would still have doubts. Can we just say this is all Darcy moores fault because if he didn't hurt trac there wouldn't be this story probably

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 the ox has come out swinging. Maybe he couldn't hold it in anymore. Very disappointing to hear about this. I really thought after 21 we'd turned a corner. I thought our day of negative media was behind us

Tom was so big on writing about trac, he missed out on reporting a true story that dyson heppell has retired. Anyway back on trac, I to will wait until after the trade period but I do hope the club listen to his frustrations. Make he was disillusioned with the low crowd numbers. Didn't he make a comment awhile ago about running out & sometimes the atmosphere is flat. In saying that though we supported trac when he injured himself in the early days & when he broke his toe playing basketball after coming off a knee re construction.
