It will be on physically from the first bounce. lewis was asked who he thought would win. He said the demons as it’s hard for the Lions to know what to change from the belting they took last time. I think he was saying if they try to focus on being physical they will lose their game plan. I expect them to come out and hit us maybe even over the top stuff. Goody will have them prepared to keep their cool. First Q sound be a ripper. Massive pressure on the lions to win after choking in finals

The less we hear John Denver tonight the happier we will all be!

Will do mate. I’m already thinking up some irrational nonsense to post later!

Plus Nik Cox, Perkins, Peter Wright

*sound of the bombers contacting Yze’s manager he signed with the giants yet? If we don’t get Hird, or Ross Lyon, or Leigh Matthews, he is top of the list

Last night on 360, Jordy Lewis was asked whether Essendon would consider keeping Rutten on if Clarko declined Answer - why would Rutten even consider staying after what’s happened? Essendons handling of this situation has been disgraceful love Lewi

I believe Pendles is playing on next year.

Have to hand it to Clarko, he seems like one of few men of integrity left. Never said a bad word about the Hawks when he was sacked by them a week after them saying he would coach out his contract. now he keeps his word to North. Some people in the media knew he wouldn’t leave them in the lurch just because a much bigger club came knocking at the last minute. He is clearly not in it for the fame and attention

Here’s the exclusive details?? Exclusive as no one else would run with baseless nonsense like this. how about a retraction Robbo?!

Considering all the work Clarko has done with Tasmania over the past year setting the foundation for a new Tassie AFL team, this makes complete sense

Printing this post out and putting it on the fridge. Some things just make you happy

Anyone else see Donald McDonald on the Front Bar? He coached the last 5 games of 2004 for Hawthorn and blatantly admitted to tanking. Joked around saying - there was a bit of tanking going on in those days assume Caro n Co will run with this in tomorrow’s paper??

Love the Drake! Who doesn’t love the Drake??

After 12 clearances and 20 contested touches Gus would be stiff to move to the wing. But he is a club man and will do his job

How frustrating are how they put out the teams?!! lions and demons are both listed as having one out and zero ins. When he reality lions are no change and demons brought Harmes in for Jordon. did I mention I hate the sub rule??

One of my best mates was a bombers member for years. The saga broke his trust with the club and he hasn’t even been to a game since. Lost all interest.

Fair points. Will be interesting to hopefully see another 2 decades of failure and them fall from the position of massive club. It’s not an indefinite position, you should to continue to earn your place.

All this talk of Essendon being a huge club annoys me. Even bigger than the Hawks who have won 4 flags in the time Essendon have not won a single final. things change (as MFC supports know well) you don’t have the right to be called a massive club when you have been rubbish for decades

Or if Freo and Pies both lose we are top 4 even if swans win and we lose. Play the Cats week one

That’s impressive. Hi Norm! to be fair I am talking treatment of coaches over the past 12 months not the last 60 years

It is a horrible show that has gotten worse. They never each other speak and then argue about nonsense and who is right become more important than what the topic is. I used to be a regular watcher years and years ago. Now it seems like they are trying to gather together the most annoying people on the one panel.

Will love Clarko forever if he teases the bombers and then goes to North

One game to go and we could still play 5 different teams week 1 of finals. Sydney home or away, Cats, Tigers, Blues, Dogs giants almost beat the dogs last week, whos to say they won’t beat Freo at home this week? can’t remember ever having this many perms and combs possible in the last round.

We need to beat the Lions by at last 15 more points than the swans beat the saints to finish second hopefully The Saints play one of their on games

Will be interesting to see how Clarko handles the negotiations. Will be around power and control and bringing his own people in. Unless the bombers let him control footy matters he will walk, whether that is now or in 1-2 years when the bombers heirarchy change their mind. Toxic club but maybe Clarko can fix it. List wise, the bombers are the obvious choice. They have 4/5 high quality kids. And 4-5 quality senior players in their peak. Some good trade bait
