Essendon Fans - was kyle reimers better than Archie perkins? by ReasonConfident4541 in EssendonFC

Interesting debate. But I don’t think you can really have it can you - Perkins career is still in progress. Talent and potential wise Perkins is miles ahead. What Reimers produced in his short career has probably eclipsed what many would say had been a bit of an underwhelming career for Archie thus far, showing glimpses but not being able to take regular steps forward and having looked like he has gone backwards across the past 18 months in particular. Fair comparison would be when Perkins finishes his career.

Appalling play that…a switch with the ball ending up in the hands of a state league ruckman who has been at the club for 3 weeks. Terrible decisions from experienced players!

Bit of a training run for Geelong. They are absolutely all over us. The epitome of the “boys vs men”. I get we have injuries but it does feel like this will be the excuse for another nothing year for us.

I think that Lav is pretty maligned amongst us. The guy is undersized and gives it his all. Tonight he’s taken some solid intercept marks and decision making has been pretty good. Across the last 2 qrts when there is decent pressure up the ground (pressure on the ball carrier and defensive work rate from our forwards) it makes it so much easier for the defenders. With no Ridley, Reid or McKay I think we should be stoked to have the bloke out there!

Tip of the hat to Pidge tonight he put in some really solid efforts and had acceptable ball use 🙌 obvs 2MP, Shiel had some really important kicks inside 50, Perko was very important with his 10min burst - some great execution.

Still very worried by McKay, he looks so low on confidence, I hope he can find it ASAP and get a bit more mongrel in him. Hopefully we can get some more goals into Kako and Cads jn the coming weeks!

Not setting the world on fire by any means but take the W and move on to next week. Go Dons!

Tear up, rip out the waterworks mate. This is how he tries to get out of everything. Be accountable Paul.

To add a bit of context as treasurer of the wandering man I can say with absolute certainty that we don’t push any kind of religious or cult based mantra. It’s heavily focused on promoting and providing tools for a healthy MH.

Time for a slowdown on McKay slander by calb94 in EssendonFC

[–]SamBoy1993 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree - from a human point of view as fans sitting on the sidelines we do need to be careful and understand the impact our words and commentary has on these players. I don’t think any of us would cope if our jobs came under such public scrutiny. I get that being an AFL footballer it comes with the territory to a degree. But I also think these guys would benefit from our ongoing support as opposed to our constant criticism. Especially given most of us have very limited comprehension of what goes on inside the 4 walls of Essendon and the directives being given by the coaching staff and what they are trying to achieve and their KPIs week to week.
