    Got to admit it was funny, even the coach had to laugh.

    Hogan should have waved him in given the slippery conditions.

    Re: Essendon

    Reading the Twitter posts is hilarious . Stringer has turned from being a champion to being delisted in two games.
    Heppell has gone from delist to star and back to delist in 20 games.
    Draper was the young up and coming ruck and now is the useless ruck who will never be anything.
    Thats just to name a few.
    The coach was a genius is now being called out to be sacked , meanwhile Dodoro still keeps out of the conversation lol
    I have an opinion that all the other 17 clubs are paying Essendon to keep Dodoro.

    Long may the Esserden coteries rule their world. Long may every change in club leadership be well hyped and oblivious to how you can properly fix a football club from the ground up.

    And long may their gormless scarf waving idiot supporters get sucked into all of the above.

    I actually know some really intelligent and well balanced (at times) Bombres members and they all go back to the messianic treatment of Hird, Thompson and Sheedy, plus the support for Dodoro as being the catalysts for their continued malaise.

    The fans will tell you what a great club they are but anyone aged 24 or under hasn’t seen any of this so called greatness . Talk about living in the past even the ones who weren’t alive for it are living in it.

    The melts are just glorious but I do think they'll limp into the 8 somehow. I don't know what would be better, seeing them miss or make it and get bounced in the 1st round.

    Have you seen their draw? It is pretty tough.
    More of an In Bruges guy?

    They'd need to win a game to get in to the 8.

    With teams around them and their draw they are literally a dead man walking.
    Freo , GC, Swans and the lions , they at best will win two , I’m predicting one.
    Hawks and us should win two minimum, that throws them out
