There is great joy in watching two arrogant clubs which tried to bulk-buy their way into finals each taking turns at being thoroughly crapulent.

If only Adelaide was playing in this game too. Then I could watch every non-Melbourne supporting member of my extended family feel bad in one glorious night.

No noise of acclamation at the Adelaide Oval tonight. The Bombers lead frees 12 to 6.

Frampton comes Alive...

That’s because Essendon are everyone’s second favourite team. Even the umpires. 

[layzie 33,801]

What a joke.

[Diamond_Jim 12,586]

They continue to talk up Essendon but they are 8-12 at best.

Could never understand the hype but not to worry they will get the prime time games again next year

[Pates 9,660]

But wait a minute, wasn’t everyone at the start of the year talking about how well Port had recruited?

Ollie Wines is slowly becoming an overrated player for me.

Give me Angus Brayshaw every day of the week.

Cameron Ling writing us off in the finals due to lack of experience, and the Cats can go deep in September but hes not being biased he said.....

I guess we’ll have prove him wrong and make his intelligence match his looks

I REALLY want the cats in the first week, I feel like beating them in the finals would exorcise some demons for us 

[Cards13 9,117]

Sooo let me get this straight... Dons can’t play finals and Port have a chance to go into the 8 and how Cats lose... 

Port look terrible and Ess are over celebrating!

[red&blue1982 255]

This would be the best game i've seen Essendon play this year.

Agreed 100%.

If he was a Melbourne player we would be pulling our hair out at his poor foot skills and lack of speed.   Covers the ground like a turtle.

Me too.

Finally, Viney would get to play them in 2018.

Boy, wouldn't it be funny if Essendon win and it turns out we would've made finals regardless of losing our last two games? ?

[Neil Crompton 5,557]

Poor old Watts. Would be lucky to get a game at Casey the way he is playing. Looks to be totally uninterested in going anywhere near the ball unless it lands in his lap. Doubt he’ll get another contract.

I’m just so glad that for once the destiny was in our hands and we were good enough to make sure of it without having to rely on other results.

Yeah but we are getting much needed relaxation!

Ridiculous.  It’s Wines v Toumpas as the comparison. 

Brayshaw is a champion. And so is Ollie Wines. 

[spirit of norm smith 16,457]

Goddard - anyone?  It’s not beyond reality. He is still very good.

God, I hope he gets another contract.

 

Imagine all the nuffies on here calling for us to recruit him as a delisted free agent if he doesn’t!
