    Thought Rampe had a good game after being shifted onto Curnow at 1/2 time.

    T.Mc had a shocker tonight, but he’s young - it happens. Looked really down on confidence after losing Charlie a few times.

    Thought we missed Rowbottom at the coal face.

    The free kick against Warner for running too far was a killer. Didn’t seem like he ran too far but that the ump missed his bounce?

    We needed more from our rucks tonight, nothing from them aside from the 3rd qtr.

    Logan was a solid target all night - hopefully a breakout game for him.

    Sad end for Kennedy if the hamstring is as bad as it looked.

    Campbell, in a bit over a half had 11 disposals, 4 marks, 2 tackles and 1 clearance.

    In to stay now and more time in the mids.

    It’s flattened me, the game gave me a headache.

    What game were you watching COB? An incredible number of the dumbest decisions since the GF of 2016, and momentum changers too. That said, we were hopeless in the second quarter but redeemed ourselves in the third and fourth, but were still killed by awful frees against us.

    Crazy.

    It's good to see umps finally start policing it (it was let go for years) but you can see they apply it at a team level. It's not that they get the occasional one wrong, my issue is they usually apply it to one team while another just gets away with it. The Cats got away with it for a decade, right up to this year but have now changed their game so it's no longer a factor.
    Captain, I am detecting large quantities of win in this sector

    Muting the vomit inducing commentary helped you only hear your own gnashing of the teeth at some of the umpiring decisions.

    Bell picks the ball up and can stand up in a tackle. We confuse strong mature body with big bodied ball inning clearance mids.

    Never looks like breaking a tackle, line or applying the fwd pressure a fwd needs to

    Hard to decide if Carlton crowd or biased commentary was more nauseating.

    I was suprised we could see the screen in the second quarter, the way that pair in the commentary box were going at it.

    I guess Brayshaw has @@@@@@@ all to hope for his LolNorf, so will jump on any gravy train for a bit of relief.

    They are instructed to act that way AFL just needs Essendon to get their @@@@ together so they can all bask in the glory days of the mighty V.

Still 1 on 1 has some work to do as his body build strength, but he reads the game well, uses the ball well, and is a good kick of the footy in general play. He is going to be an utter beast of a player in the not too distant future.
    I’d love to see Logan play as a deep forward. Great hands and generally a lovely kick.

    Bud at CHF/HFF or on a wing. He’s still bombing then from 45-60+ meters and his laser like passing makes me think “Jordan who?”. I could get used to “Buddy to Logan” or “Logan watches another booming Buddy kick sail over his head”!

    I might need something more substantial than that
