Nick Martin looks like a geek. 

So, at quarter time Essendon are ahead in the contests. 
The transition game is beating them by five goals

Hawks are moving the ball well. They just get it going, no stop start just move it on. 

Is it just me or is there more Nuffy-Cam footage of supporters doing their blocks after missed free kicks than in previous years. I like it.

Wet night. 
Hitting targets.

Not easy. As I said, very disturbing.

Essendon’s forward line is more dysfunctional than ours.  

What the heck is wrong with this surface.

Shut up Buckley, that was definitely intentional. 

Bombers are real bad. Real bad. 

Can anyone explain to me what Brad Scott is trying to get his players to do? They seem bereft of any semblance of a gameplan.

What goes around comes around.

Just can't decide who I hate the most.

Sometimes you just watch a game and find yourself barracking 1for a side for no real reason.

I know I hate Essendon but the underdog thing is kicking in.

They needed that goal.

Players should be pinged for dropping the knees to get the head high contact. Always.

Have been attempting to identify their game plan since the first quarter and have no idea. Their inside 50 entries do resemble ours though.

This is a cracking game.

Sadly I agree...

Come on hawks, get a goal to settle 

Please god the same thing that happened to the scores last night doesn’t happen tonight. For the love of all things good and holy, PLEASE DON’T LET ESSENDON WIN.

Amen

I just wish just once to see  one of our forwards would get such a cheapie free like Will Day got just then. Just never happens.

we miss sideshow bob

Horrendous free kick to Will Day. Horrendous non free kick for Sicily pushing Hobbs in the face/neck. And surely McGrath has every right to handball it through. 

What is going on?

Has the pressure rushed behind rule changed?

I'm already worrying about us slipping over on Sunday.

 

The Bombers are in a lot of trouble. No system whatsoever.
