Kenny G

@FootyLock6 He’s never going to say there’s a bit of a coaching issue. He spoke well, but it’s just the obvious lines

Highly recommend. It’s hard to back in Scott after the start, but this surprisingly suggests that there is a vote of confidence from the players, who are the most important people. Often you would dodge a bit more if you didn’t back him. Importantly, really focusses on culture

@SimonSperling 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 seriously?

Per Kane Cornes, Zach Merrett grabbing a drink pregame is “very much individual in this situation”

@grigg_d @SENSportsday @Sammy__Edmund I was open to your view on how to improve, but it turns out you know zero of the details. Keep criticizing though 👍🏻

@kensoath @SENSportsday @Sammy__Edmund That’s ok, I’m not seeking your validation. But hey keep on being accepting of mediocrity, as a non Essendon supporter, we love it

@FootyonNine Imagine the narrative now if they had traded Merrett. Disaster! Cut too deep! 5 year wilderness 🙄

@grigg_d @SENSportsday @Sammy__Edmund This doesn’t give me much confidence in you take 😂

@kensoath @SENSportsday @Sammy__Edmund By memory I don’t think they were all last years draft, they don’t have to use them all as selections, they could e got creative and used them to better their hand or trade for players!

@grigg_d @SENSportsday @Sammy__Edmund Who would they have in last years draft with those picks?

@SENSportsday @Sammy__Edmund Andrew Welsh was lauded for his public stand regarding allowing Merrett to leave but in all honesty he set the list build back 5 years, 3 first round picks for a side that lacks high end talent for a guy who didn’t want to be there and certainly won’t be a part of their next flag

@1116sen @WhateleySEN Simpson knew how to fix it at the Eagles didn’t he? 😂

Was it right for Brad Scott to use the word "demoralised"? Adam Simpson and Gerard Whateley have their say | bit.ly/4lIHVVP @WhateleySEN | #AFL

@hawthornzone Is this true though?? That’s pretty impressive

Wow congratulations, you can pull a crowd! Can you win a game though?

@RalphyHeraldSun Same self-defence as Trump in Iran. Absolute no-brainer for MRO

Does Comben go for a hit Reid said was to his chin or was it self defence? Tough call for the MRO given angles of the incidents do show Reid changing course to run at a stationary Comben. You be the judge. Strong words from Reid on the “dog” nature of the hit although admittedly in a post match interview where he probably hadn’t thought it through

Whatever his shortcomings, I thought the players might have lifted for McGrath But they have shown disdain and embarrassed him

@cdesilva23 People might think this is an analogy, but it’s actually what they looked like

The lack of an appetite for any sort of hard work from every single one of Essendon's players is absolutely baffling. They look like they've been forced out of annual leave to come and play a charity match #AFLPowerDons

Not sure there’s ever been a player who’s worked harder for a round-the-back 1 metre handball receive into a sideways 20 metre kick than the Bombers #7.

@BruzzysBulls I’m his biggest fan, but he played like shit

I don’t even own Caldwell and this makes me angry. Brad Scott, you are a fool. #AFLFantasy #SuperCoach

@PaulSCousins How horrendous this was will not be missed. Abysmal in every area of the game. No tweaking will fix this. Wheels will be in motion in moving on from Scott. I’m not usually this guy, but that was utterly unacceptable

Two weeks in a row late junktime goals have buried the lede. Non-competitive when it mattered.

@AnthP_ You are absolutely spot on Ant. Complete lack of basic direction in how to move the ball. On top of an absolute mess of defence. This is not just a young side making mistakes - this is rudderless football.

You have just witnessed the worst display with the football in any game at any level in any era The disconnection was unfathomable, not just between lines, but individuals

@PaulSCousins That’s a swing! I like it

MJ 4K

@BradKlibansky Wow! Over 4 years. That’s four extra games per year 🙌🏼

@kensoath He’s played 17 more games in the same timeframe
