Hate the people that said Melbourne were hard done by, they played 15 minutes of good football all day and suddenly they deserved to win.

**** YOU AFL! **** YOU UMPIRES!

I can't believe that. Was at the game. Worst thing I've ever seen. Fine, if you're going to give the ****in stupidest free kick ever, but have some common ****ing sense and don't ****in pay 50 metres. The game is in the balance deep into time on, Richo clearly didn't know it was a free kick and heard the whistle assuming he took the mark. What is he supposed to do? Turn around and let Michael tackle him.

****in hate this game sometimes.

Well done Essendon on making a come back. McPhee and Fletcher's goals hurt badly.

Hird spoonfed another medal he doesn't deserve because he's James Hird. So obvious.

James Hird played a great game, might not of been our best but still a bloody good game. Certainly not "spoonfed" the medal.

He played a good last quarter.

5 players better:

Lucas
Richo
Fletcher
Deledio
McPhee

Hence Hird doesn't win best on the ground. He doesn't even get a bloody vote. He's gotten plenty of best on grounds because he's noticeable and because of who he is, you can't deny that.

Lucas no, Richo no, Fletcher no, Deledio yes, Mcphee yes.

There were only 3 better players than him last night. Deledio, Mcphee and Stanton. He was good throughout the game. Richo playing was a brave effort but wasnt near B.O.G.

He kicked 5 goals, with Fletcher and Michael rotating on him.














Yeah I said 5 goals, because that was a goal, at least in my mind. :p

Not sure how Lucas taking 16 marks and kicking 3 goals, whilst setting up others isn't a BOG performance to be honest.

What was nothing? Lucas took 16 marks as a forward, he wasn't a defender playing kick to kick, he was leading heavily down to the flanks and wings all day.

He also had 23 possessions, kicked 3.4 and had a few goal assists.
