Jaded No More

Correct. I am just spewing that we will come out of this game with some significant injuries because Norf have nothing to lose and if May does what he wants to and breaks some skulls we will be down an AA full back for 2 months.

Also kick straight and the game is done. 7 scoring shots to 17 plus 2 out on the full.

Cut Petty some slack. He really hurt his ankle in the first quarter. Could barely walk. They obviously pumped him full of drugs and told him to carry on.

Any updated on Ed?

Norf keep smashing into us for no consequences. Absolutely disgraceful. Time to bury this nothing club.

Would be nice to wake up and try a bit more.

Yeah he’s not fantastic.

This game, like this ground, is trash. Let’s get the 4 points, avoid injuries and move the hell on to bigger and more important things.

This ground is cursed. Injuries galore.

Petty off. Looks very sore. Running on the sidelines.

Level 1 aisles 1-7 are general admission. Still some empty seats left here.

Why is it so bright in here? Can they calm down with the lights?

If there are 10,000 people here I would be shocked

They are Melbourne of 2018. Shiny, fun, attacking. Prone to massive fade outs. Concede massive scores. We all know how that ended.

And still lost

Yeah and fat chance they kick 9 goals in a quarter against us. If they don’t pile on a massive lead in the first half they can’t win.

Can’t wait to smash these pretenders

Come on Sydney. Absolute trash umpiring giving this game to Carlton. Total cheats.

Are Carlton really that good? Please say it isn’t so.

Disgraceful fixturing. Short break coming off an interstate game against Geelong then again coming off a game in NT against the Dogs. It’s like the AFL needs to keep looking after their darlings. Absolute joke n

Completely agreed. I would be really annoyed if one of our players did that. The outwardly behaviour that was clear for everyone to see at the ground and on TV was not acceptable in my mind. Have a word to your opponent sure, it will stay on the field and that is fine. But Parker just made himself look like a total tool and publicly embarrassed his opponent, which is so unnecessary. Takes away from the excellent player Parker is, and put the focus on his dumb behaviour instead of his team's great performance.

Terribly sad news. He was a highlight machine and one of the few Essendon players I genuinely loved to watch. Wish him all the very best in the future.

Lucky we aren’t playing much of an opponent. I reckon they’ll try to get him to 200 and I’m not super mad about it since this is most likely his last season.

Literally shook. Bedford so stiff. Not a fan of this.

A good strong team that plays for each other and is uncompromising in its attack on the footy. We are a joy!
