I’m not a fan of Marto in defence. To me, it’s stupid having a guy with natural flair and skill to win the ball, create space, then nail passes or goals with precision, sitting in defence. Throw Duursma back there for drying out loud. Marto is a far better offensive player than XD. Everyone is tryi...

We haven't had an effective forward line since Knights squeezed out Lloydy for Jay Neagle.

We need an Ox at FF.

Hobbs needs twos time too. Hobbs for Durham seems good to me. Forgot Durham is available #-o He has to make it through the week at training first... Do we presume his shoulder is ok? He was listed as concussion on the injury list. And I am assuming that he doesn't get re-injured on our training fac...

Special mention - the sheet of perspex I strategically placed in front of my TV.

Objection!
You can't include the perspex in this week's votes because, if you're a true Essendon fan, you would have installed it years ago.

The perspex has been my best clubman for the past 2 years

This. Club. Is. A. f******. Junkyard.

Yep at training.

Our training ovals must be concrete and our rehab/sports physiologists would have to be the worst in the league.

5 - B. McKay
4 - Z. Merrett
3 - N. Martin

1. X. Duursma

Why blame Cox? He has played 38 games (a handful of them as sub) and is in a different position each week. It is a soft and sad option to pick on Cox as the reason we lost. Sure we can drop him, trade him out at the end of the year and then watch him become a star in another club. Radio commentators...

A. Perkins (inj), J. Menzie (omit),

IN: E. Tsatas, A. Roberts.

Basic skill errors from us are intolerable. Also, the timidity of people not backing themselves. Was it Setterfield or Caldwell who should have slotted a goal but instead kicked it high so the port talls could get it? Hind just passed one off, towards the boundary, running to an almost open goal fr...

Looked painful whatever the story.

Is he actually concussed?

If you can believe it, that's what the doctor said.

The AFL seems to have lost the plot.

Nice to see Tsatas, Roberts and Lual getting a bit of the pill

Is the J. Hatley listed Jackson Hatley the ex-Giants and Crows player? How is he going?
