Sack Rutten
Really really disappointing second half. Unfortunately a very familiar feeling this time of the year. Boys were right in until those run of bs frees to them early in the third seemed to just take the sting right out of us.
In saying that. Itâs still been a successful year. This team looks committed and on the same page for the first time in a long time and Iâm not gonna be all doom and gloom after that. I really do believe this is the beginning of something special for this club.

Reality is thats where we are at as a team, I think we have a good base to build on next year, trade well and draft well we should push into the top 6. Its just a disappointing way to finish

Well, another finals loss! Who could have predicted that?
I had some decent expectations today, but this was quickly shot when it started raining. Why must we always suck in the wet!?
Ridley played well.

We werenât expected to make finals at all but we did.
We didnât win it but they got a taste of what is needed.
Wet weather doesnât suit our game plan at all. We donât train for these kind of conditions, however the wet weather does expose the weakness in indiviual skills.
Last year end of season review threw up some surprises and hopefully the changes that need to be made this time will happen again.

Walla was fit and ready to go. They thrashed him at training and he passed all the tests. He wanted to play and was ready.
We needed a small forward who can kick goals from half chances. Walla was that man.

Meh, we will never know what a dry day might have brought.
But when I look at Dylan Shiel I dont see an Essendon player.
I just see Dylan Shiel.

See 2009.
See 2011.
See 2017.
First proper year under each coach, fell into the 8, and smashed.
Nothing ever changes.
I donât ever want us to make the finals again from 7th or 8th again.

Do you think it would help if we sent them a Christmas Hamper each? How can you not get a free kick when someone is holding your foot?
Not the reason we lost but boy did it give them the start of their run.
Well, that was diarrhetic.
