It’s important to realise that tonight was more than just an effort issue.

We just lost by 90 points & let their most potent ball user freely get 49 disposals. We are in a worst position then when Scott started.

You know he smiled to himself as he made the sub call too.

I don’t really have much to say about individual players. You don’t get beaten like that because a handful of guys were awful. The dogs, when they’re on, are the worst team for us to play, and have been for years. Bigger, stronger, more talented players everywhere we think we’re good, and absolutely love to put the foot down when they’re winning.

Subbing off El-Hawli at half time seemed like a ridiculous decision. He wasn’t our best or anything, but subbing off a rookie in his fifth game is no sort of statement at all. Unless there’s footage of him sitting on the wing halfway through the second quarter getting into a 20 pack of McNuggets, I just don’t see how there’s any “non-negotiables” argument that would apply to him that wouldn’t apply to someone with more experience and less excuses.

Minor thing. I thought Laverde was fine, but from what I could see, he spent most of the game on Rhylee West. If we were bringing in a tall defender, no problem with picking him given our injuries. If we were bringing in someone to play on a 182cm small forward, maybe we could have done something a little more future-focused.

I thought subbing Saad was a bit shiitttt Braddles. Plenty of other passengers before Saad. Yeah let’s sub someone with a bit of leg speed :joy:

Vintage any Essendon coach of the last 10 years.

Should sack the coach.

I don’t care who replaces Redman, Prior, McKay and Perkins but they must not play.

Merrett was absolutely putrid.

Lav, Duursma and Caddy looked interested and tried.

why is the barham thread locked ?
we like to think Scott is the biggest fraud at the club, but this parasite gets a free ride to hide in the shadows and cop nothing.

This is your vision barham, When the wolves come, I hope you’re first to get the boot cos you are the aboslute biggest fraud at the club

Any team that brings the heat makes us wilt.

It has been our thing for a very long time.

Ugly.

81% a truer reflection than the 5-4 record.

Until we actually have a system which can stop teams just rebounding and scoring at will, this will happen against decent teams. I genuinely don’t think Brad Scott knows how to coach that.

Ah well. I think this is just where Essendon is at. Will happen a few more times this season.
