Never heard a post-game response like that.
Well done boys.
I hate fans saying umpiring had an effect.
Boy oh boy wowee that was farkin horrid.
Positive, we’re due the next 192637 frees as evener uppers.
too bad we got off to a slow start, but proud we fought back
One of our better anzac performances
Umpires never decide games, right? Right?
Umpires might have had an impact in us losing the game, but geez (and I’m a huge fan) Dylan Shiel was up there.
I must not have read the rule where Collingwood players have five more seconds to dispose of the ball and it doesn’t matter if their disposal is legal or not
Good effort - shame on the umpires.
pretty sure i said it in the game thread but the umpires were definitely going to finish the game on top
Can we please agree Myers is not up to this level of football. And never has been.
In a ‘finals type’ atmosphere today, he was once again found wanting. Can somebody please stop the bleeding already. You can’t have your experienced players being a liability, if you want team success.
Please bring in Langford and at least let him try to regain some of his form from last season. There is nothing gained with him playing behind Myers.
I’m farking begging you Essendon!!!
I am in the Ess members and I genuinely thought there was going to be a riot. Never felt that before. Absolute farkin c’s
We got blown away in the first quarter - bad
Shiel’s ability to win the ball got us back in the game - good
Shiel’s kicking cost us a few opportunities to get in front - bad
Umpiring so bad players started umpiring the game themselves - infuriating
but also, aside from umpiring, there was too many passengers today
Absolutely cracking game, I don’t like good losses, but that feels like one.
We won 3 quarters.
Umpires were bad but some of our disposal was much worse.
Tippa highs 3 times not called. About 5 ridiculous holding the ball decisions. They let everything go but call Pendleton’s flop to ruin the game.
Once i calm the fark down, I reckon I’ll be pretty damn proud and impressed with the boys.
Lots to like. Lots to be p*ssed about.
If this club had any balls we’d be bursting dowm the door of the umpires department tomorrow morning
Don’t worry about the umpires.
If we could hit a target under pressure (and sometimes under no pressure) we beat them.
We can get them next time.
After quarter time it was a good effort to not get blown away.
We missed our chances.
What’s the point???
