Mostly a poor effort including the selectors.

We’ve been worked out: apply pressure & we fold. No plan B

The Brown brothers in particular deserve special mention: I’m mentioning them two-three weeks in a row. Too ineffectual.

Varcoe was much better in attack.

Elliott has been where the ball isn’t and that’s a worry. Phillips is a shell of his former self this year.

AT least we fought back, at long last, were not smashed, thats one thing. Its obvious the Howe and Sidey affair upset our structure, and the team itself, it would seem. I cannot fathom how our entire forward line could be shocking for three qtrs, no goals, like u can expect one, perhaps two of em, to have a poor game, but the whole lot of them ?? whats going on there ?? Dons are very average team, we made them look good, shame on us, must make a few changes next week, and our forwards need a rocket up them, all of them.! Its not just acceptable that non effort, by them.

With such dominance maybe he should just smash it forward like Clark.Keating used to in the finals for Brisbane.

Love the pattern of Essendon loving the final 2 goals of every quarter.
Buckley out.
9 years, one runners up, 2019 putrid (WC win the last game vs Haw and we probably don’t make the prelim), and 2020 a borderline abomination bar the first half of round 1 and round 3.

If we don’t show grit and heart from here on in, Bucks should go.

I’m losing interest in this side and it’s ability to drink its own bath water.

The 2002 side had half the skill level but 100 times the heart and desire.
The 2020 version is nothing but pretentious and heartless.
The lack of desire in this side is the worst that I can recall in a Collingwood team. Leading comfortably near quarter time to only lose or draw is a very common theme and one that obviously hasn’t
