Bravo, good sir!
Kane Cornes said the same thing this morning most watchable exciting young team in the comp
I’m so pumped but we also need to remember we’re not the finished article. Chances are we get pumped by Richmond this week but as long as we keep learning and improving I’m so rapt.
Just can’t turn on the boys if we have a few bad ones.

A few things
-
David King is the biggest ■■■■■■■■ on foxtel and should be sacked. His blatant cheering for WC was sickening. He hates us and struggles to ever be professional
-
second quarter I thought we were gone for this win, but still believed we would fight it out ala GWS. In the end, we should have won by another 3-4 goals
-
can we stop saying WC were down 2 men. They were down 1 man as they got their sub on the ground who kicked a goal. Injuries happen in footy, no excuse for weagels
-
best game by Perkins. He keeps his feet and is evasive as soon ad he gets it. The kid has something special
-
Cox and Jones keep developing beautifully. Should only ever be dropped for a rest. Don’t care if their form wavers as they are the future and their endeavour alone keeps them in the team
-
and finally, as I have always believed, we HAVE THE FARKEN TALENT. Never underestimate what a terrible coach like Worsfold can do to a team. Good players look lost, younger ones stagnate. My only regret is Worsfold didn’t go sooner like I wanted. Guys like Goddard didn’t get the end they deserved.

Exactly.
This game was a huge bonus. They fought for it and deserved it and it was massive, but we can’t hold them to this standard.
Yet.

Really - or was it the coach?
Would you have wanted to stay under the inspiring leadership of one John Worsfold?
Can’t read it so don’t know what it said?
Richmond won’t pump us. They are a shell of their former selves. We will take it up to them win or lose. There is belief and I don’t think we will drop off, rather we might not be as polished. Only the Brisbane loss did we look out of sorts and I sorta expected we would struggle a little if we didn’t show up (which we didnt). Every other loss we have played really well in parts.
Tiggers will try to bully us. This win shows we can play against the big boys.
Not sure about that I thought he was pro Essendon espcially in the last qrt

Nope, he said those compliments through gritted teeth.
He is a joke and incredibly unprofessional.

Fair enough
I don’t mind King
Are you watching all his stuff on Foxtel ?
He’s quite bullish about us.
Credit where it’s due, he did coin the term McMerrish, which we will be using collectively for quite some time !

He’s a pelican flog.
While I agree he is a joke and unprofessional, he has been quite supportive of us in the past and has praised a lot of our players. I think the problem comes when we play teams he really loves, last night being an example.

Kingy loves us. Has talked us up for years. Even when we’ve been ordinary.

I watch only gameday stuff. I refuse to watch or read the media outside of the game as they are parasitic germs in the main.
Go back to the Carlton game, did not give us credit for anything, it was all Carlton.ast night it was all WC are going to flog us and free kicks that are legitimate are not right when we get them. The bias is real
Not sure about a bias against us, but agree he seemed to have it in his head last night that the result was pre determined.

He does that in all games. He picks a team he wants to win and then gets annoyed when it doesn’t happen. He doesn’t hate Essendon, he has spoken about his respect for the club and what they went through with the saga.
The issue is that he is simply not a good commentator and is unprofessional in how he calls things.
