Not sure about everyone else but kicking a point isnโ€™t advantage?

They should never call advantage so close to goal. Just let the team take a set shot.

Kayo having a mare. Just work dammit!

Is it crashing for you as well? I thought it was my nbn down at Phillip Island.ย

It's been flawless here for me. Maybe try restarting whatever device it is you're watching on?

Done that 10 times already.ย

Bummers will continue to run and gun. We need to get our hands on it a lot more.

Would be good if the midfield could play the whole 4 quarters without lapses in concentration.


Fine start for Essendon they should be really proud of that effort. Draper scorching us in the ruck and if Petty is really hurt then they could really exploit that weakness down back.

Great kick from Melksham to steal one back before QT but these guys need a rocket up their behind.

We need to keep backing our ball movement because once we break the centre line the Bombers are very susceptible. Get stuck in and win more contested footy to shield the backs and we can easily get back in this.

If you take the advantage it is, miss the goal stiffย 

We didn't take advantage, the foul was called after Grundy had disposed of the ball. Hard for Kozzy to know if he should kick or not.

I've never seen Clarrie start a game with 2 touches in the first.

Him and Trac need to really lift. Not good enough.ย

Damn. Hope it improves for the rest of the game for you.

Our midfield can be so lazy at times.ย

I'm 5 km from the Adelaide Oval and there's no wind at all, so I don't know where you are. It's not raining. In fact, perfect conditions for footy. BB will play. There won't be any changes for weather.

Might have changed your mind ..windy ..a bit of rain & no BB ๐Ÿค”

Shocking defence efforts but very efficient forward line entries - ย almost the opposite of last season - ย our backs need to get head in the contest and mids work harder defensivelyย 


Mids need to get involved more just letting the bombers have to many unpressured entries fwdย ย 

Letโ€™s hope the coaches have sorted some of that [censored] out.ย 

Theyโ€™re trying to make it a shootout, weโ€™re trying to make it a contested game.

Petty and Tomlinson stinking it upย 

One of the results of playing Petty up forward for most of the year?

They are playing with a really high defense. Just have Rivers and Sparrow kick to space behind their last line of defence, get Kozzy, JVR and Milkshake work on ground.

1stย 

fumbles very costlyย 

Bombers spare defensive across half back is very good (Scott 1 Goodwin 0)

Draper causing problemsย 

Oliver 2 touches ๐Ÿคฎ๐Ÿคฎ

Parish 13 disposals ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”

Pickett nearly dangerous ๐Ÿคฉ

Fritsch ๐Ÿ’™โค๏ธ

Good news is that they canโ€™t play much better and we have much we can improve on. Not losing to those cheats in Adelaide.ย
