What a game!!! That’s our 4th 10 goal plus flogging of the year

Musta been 2000 the last time we beat 4 teams by 10 goals

Essington 2020 v essendon 2021 is night and day difference. Actually enjoyable to watch with a good future ahead.

Stringer in God mode is such a sight to be seen, love it!!!

Now to beat the flogs next week and complete an already good season

Career best games from RedDog and Hindy.

Draper is aggressive, talented and crazy.

Nothing too exciting about Parish and Merrett - they were their typical excellent selves.

We’ve found one with Durham.

Damn, I love Jake Stringer. Ridley, too.

All with Walla, THE, Cox and Jones on the sidelines.

Keen to see how we stack up in September. And as for next year? Look out.

I much prefer Rutten as coach over Worsfold.

No passengers today. Everyone played their role.

Our coaches box looked very relaxed - especially in the second half. Whatever happens regarding finals 2021, they’d be very pleased where this team is at.

Do we really know how good Ridley is? He just refuses to be beaten and kicks so beautifully.

Not sure if anyone seen the footage of Disco in the corporate box but he looked like he had a few jackets on. Think he was pretty chuffed not just for the high draft picks that are playing well but looks like Snelling and Durham are going to be best 22 going forward. Not a bad effort from the mid season draft.

Dev Smith played pretty well actually. Best game since his surgery imo.

And he’s only 22 (turns 23 in October). Shows a lot of composure and confidence and ability for that age.

Last March how many of us would have thought the season would still be alive with one round to go?

And we still have Zach Reid to break in

No one, the consensus was bottom 4 easily, if not bottom of the ladder outright.

Clarke and Cutler making extremely strong cases to be at Essendon in 2022.
