"Use the ball properly" - that's an unsustainable game plan if I ever heard one with our untalented playing list. Well at least, Hird is laying some blame at the feet of the coaches for this loss.

Let's hope they ask some tough questions...would be great if some Essendon supporters could ring up and ask some non-PC questions. And yes James, I am disappointed. A "long term journey"...oh dear is this another way of saying a "Terry Wallace five year plan", please don't let it...

...are able to win one more game for the rest of the year, who would you like to see us beat? I want us to absolutely destroy one of the Adelaide teams - would definitely prefer to thump Port Adelaide because I'm absolutely sick of this team having the wood over us. And it would be a nice way to fin...

Three positives for mind: a) We have helped Clarkson's case for his contract to be renewed; hopefully it will be to the Dawk's grief. b) We surely will be out of the eight by tonight; don't want any chance of us scraping into the eight and getting humiliated like we did against Adelaide. c) We're on...

If we are going to spend any more money, lets spend it getting Collingwood's recruitment team. We got Alan Richardson, I'm still not exactly sure what he did. What Collingwood have done really well is develop players...something we have been extremely poor at handling .....the more they stay the sa...

It would be nice to least play a forward in our line-up for structure's sake. I'm not talking about ruckmen-cum-full forwards or half-forward flankers. The current structure not working so let's at least try something different FFS.

Now I'm going to get shot down for this but so be it - it's all about opinions - I will give it and anybody who wants to disagree can. I was very sceptical when the "so-called dream team" was appointed, I really thought that we needed an outsider to clean up the mess that is our club. I ho...

How does Corey get a reprimand for the worst sling out of Mumford and Dudsiski. FFS at least with the two latter tackles, player still had the ball. Scratch my head on this one because I reckon that was two actions from Corey. I know he plays for Geelong but could we please have a level playing field.

I prefer the former Fitzroy supporter methods of 1991 personally. Go down and graffiti AFL House and throw a few bricks through the windows. I remember this game and it was truly vomit worthy. Peter McKenna summed it up beautifully - "that was murder" in reference to the umpiring that nig...

Yes, we are shite. I think we'll improve a bit over the next couple seasons. Yes we are very shite! And this is what really really worries me. It is natural with a young list that we currently have that we will improve every year. I'm sure we would have even perhaps improved with Knights at the hel...

I'm sure I could find this on the Internet somewhere if I could be bothered. But can someone please tell me, what our winning record against other teams in the AFL. Are there any teams that are still our biatches? Forgot to add for the last 10 years.

Vote 1 Gringo to join the the coaching panel! I'm sure he can add the much need enthusiasm that is lacking right now.

Yes, it's going to be a tough draw from here on in. Does anybody think that we can win any more games for the year? I honestly am thinking that our last game against Port Adelaide will be our only chance for a win. Right now, Freo would be spewing they didn't put a request to play us on the MCG so t...

Forgot to add for all those saying the umpires did a good job. I actually heard a Carlton supporter (that's right, a Carlton supporter) say how shit the umpiring decisions against Essendon were. So some of you can take off those rose coloured glasses.

OK so we all agree that we are getting ass raped by the umpires. So the question becomes if there is anything we can do about it. I think we really need to start intimidating the umpires better as a supporter base. I hope that one day Etihad can become a bastion like Windy Hill. If it can be done in...

id like to add Heppell getting taken over the line only for it to be called deliberate...... HOW THE f***? I thought the umpire called holding the ball for that one. For the millisecond that he was in play? Cmon guys the umpires are being consistent at least. I have seen this decision paid twice in...

BIt of luck at last - at least we don't have to see the goal of the year kicked twice against us this year. Surely just surely our ruck division will smash the Hawks this week - otherwise I will bloody vomit.

Well, while we're calling for Williams to be given a chance to show if he's improved or not (and I agree we ought to), I say let's get Prismall and Dyson back in there too. They've been great (by all reports) at Bendigo for around a month or more now, and they are two blokes who can actually use th...

Gerard Healy is an absolute farktard.. Also making a shit attempt at picking up chicks. Not within a country mile of the Olympic Stadium. Hope you were more successful lol. Agree that there is something slimy about Healy that I probably don't want to put my finger on. Aaron Davey from Melbourne got...

I'm curious as to which Essendon player people think will go to Harvey and Wells? Apparently Wells is having a good season.
