August 27, 20205 yr Hawks vs Ess on now. Ess are rubbish. No system at all. Eagles vs Tigers on later. - Hope tigers lose so more likely to miss the double chance of a top 4 finish.
August 27, 20205 yr Patton looks to have done his Achilles That’s both him and Sicily out for hawks for the majority of 2021 you’d think Edited August 27, 20205 yr by whatwhatsaywhat
August 27, 20205 yr Big game for the bombers They have a bad percentage. A loss today is almost the end of any finals chance Go Hawks
August 27, 20205 yr I reckon we might have shot ourselves in the foot by losing badly last week to the Dogs. We need to atone on Saturday as we could be gone if the Dogs beat the Cats and we lose.

A loss today is almost the end of any finals chance They drew with GC so percentage is irrelevant (unless they're competing with Collingwood/ Richmond for a spot). But they are a mile off being a finals side regardless. Is it bad that I enjoy essendon losses almost as much as melbourne wins?
August 27, 20205 yr strange time for a Thursday game... is there any particular reason? Hawks going very well !

When I saw the fixture had us playing Dogs and Saints back to back I said to myself we needed to get a win out of one of those two games. I just don’t see us being able to win the last four on the trot to make the finals. It requires a level of concentration and focus I just don’t think our squad has. Beat the Saints and I think that leads us into finals. I hate the Hawks and Bombers, but I’m quite happy to see Hawthorn winning.
August 27, 20205 yr Where’s the popcorn?? the bombers are a rabble! It is so sweet their season is over
August 27, 20205 yr I think we can take some comfort int he fact that no matter who wins this game, nobody gets to go home feeling like they matter. My two most disliked clubs and they are both in the levitating potato category. Also, doesn't matter for finals if Essendon win, because either we'll beat them and end the story that way, or we'll lose to them and the rest is dust anyway.

August 27, 20205 yr Essendon will pass us tonight if they go on to win, but before this board goes berserk at that fact, bear in mind that they're struggling against Hawthorn, a bottom 4 side, and their next three games are against West Coast, Geelong and Port.

They're three games and percentage behind 17th with 4 games to play. Which means they'd have to win them all to get off the bottom. Which wouldn't happen even if they tried, so they should really be going all out to beat Hawthorn next week or, better for us, GWS or Carlton their following two games.

Adelaide Tanking is giving some young kids a run. Whether they win or not is irrelevant
