Thanks people for keeping us up to date with the game. The AFL tv rights should be looked at, the two stations showing footy are both showing the same game in the same time slot.

jorayme, no worries man. Sucks when they do that, did it hear earlier in the season. It's really annoying when the radio is taking the same damn game! A blessing being in Tassie - we get games telecast that you dont up there.

Geez Cole has done some good things today in the backline. He's picked his game up

Cole's disposal is atrocious.

He's been the architect of play a couple of times now but instead of hitting a player or putting it to advantage he's almost pinpointed oppoenets about 50m down the ground.

Essendon are just SO UP AND DOWN...

Great passage of play...
Then a missed goal...
Another exciting passage...
Terrible turnover...
Etc... etc...

The was one of the worst shots at goal I've ever seen from JJ. No reason for anyone playing at AFL level to miss from 20-25m out directly in front.

At least the goals posts have stayed put.

We're playing a better type of footy this term, compared to the second. We dont look like running out of legs yet, but there's half hour of footy to go yet, at least.

Would love to see us play the game out well, give them one less thing to bullshit about.
