@DonCaldwelll Any chance this poor showing is a reflection of our new fitness dpt? Im hearing the focus this year was not kms into the legs but short sharp sessions. This midfield is sitting in 2nd gear while others are doing 110. Merrett, Caldwell, Durham, Parish all have gone backwards ๐ญ
@liparota The AFL intervened after he has been cleared and showed no symptoms but sat and done nothing with Hollands who was getting around the way he was. What a circus ๐ช
@ScooterMcNeice How good is our strength and conditioning department! Have listened to this spew all summer and then when the season hits we're slow, gassed and sloppy. Our fitness is nowhere near it. That midfield couldn't defend auskickers atm. We're officially at rock bottom.
@ScooterMcNeice When needed run and pressure through the midfield looked up and seen Duursma sitting in the forward line ffs. The only true winger we've had for 10yrs and we play him at half forward. Roberts on the pine for half the game while Langford and May provided little. We're in trouble.
@grandoldgame Ive put down that we need to get enough out of Merrett and Ridley to go all in on Butters. This is the guy we need in the sash, elite midfielder that takes no shit. Someone the club should follow
@jacksondavey Fuck him, he signed last year knowing what we had and are going through. The boys knew he was a selfish c*** hence previously didn't want him in the leadership group. I hope all 22 line him up and watch him flop sooking for free's. When the going gets tough he's folded. ๐
@ScooterMcNeice@essendonfc When we're kicking out there's nothing. No movement just a couple of plodders strolling around the midfield pointing to the boundary. Backs are panicking being under the pump for 4qtrs, nothing ahead of them so go pocket to pocket and prey someone breaks the zone. Regressed ๐
@ScooterMcNeice The slow movement comes from our seriously slow midfield. Parish, Hobbs, Setterfield.. take out Durham and Merrett it's pedestrian like in there as we can see by being burnt from forward turnovers. 25 extra forward 50's last week 23 tonight. Who's picking this team @essendonfc ?
