Always happy to beat that mob, they have had the wood on us the last few years.
Great spirit by the guys, when the Tigers hit the front it didnt look good

Always take a win against a rival, regardless of ladder position.

But by christ we made it look harder than it should have been.

Very disappointed again tonight, umpiring was disgraceful early I think Bannister forgot he wasn't actually playing for Essendon anymore but the umpire...

Of the 2 new coaches, Mcartney from WB comes across as much more impressive than Neeld.

Saw Neeld in action tonight, he looks like a nutter. Spent most of the game shouting and swearing and at one point I thought he was going to burst into tears. He doesnt handle the pressure too well

Good bloke and can coach just stuck with a sh*t team with no talent. Melbourne won't can him as it will cost them too much. Going to be a very long couple of season for the Dees

[mighty_tiger_79]

so why did Neeld go for that job at Melbourne?

was Buckley going to get rid of him and I know hindsight is a wonderful thing but that melbourne job was always going to be a very tough gig.

If he gets dumped by Lyon will he ever be a senior coach again???

[mighty_tiger_79]

not having any dream team or supercoach - im assuming the more goals is good points? does anyone have him???

Very few people would have him, he's been a dud up forward all year until today.

On 69 at quarter time!

[NO-MERCY]

If Richmond could kick straight they would be 6 goals up

I think if Reiwolt could get a kick Richmond might of won, he was a passenger once again all night.
Time for the coach to dump him as he's all about me-myself & i as he's always been, the worse body language i've ever seen on a player.
It must have something to do with playing full forward for Richmond as Richardson was very similar.

Murphy fins out that Dangerfield is not the player to try to hurt. Looks like a broken arm to me.
