6072 - Days since Essendon last won a final Not relevant to this thread but it just makes me happy

The beauty of having Weed some in to play with T Mac, LJ and Fristch is that Gawn can drift back on HB and repel so many attacks. His marking on the weekend was astounding. 8 contested. Handball it off to Hunt/Rivers/Hibbo and we are away If May comes back in and with Gawn floating back, I think we have a genuine chance of winning

win 3 out of 4 flags you've earnt the right to be a little cocky there is nothing to suggest we will do more than compete with them for 3 quarters.

Laurie's behind Bedford and Chandler you'd reckon so although it's a pity he is injured, I don't think he would have played a senior game unless multiple injuries

didn't we make a Prelim?

I hope Tommo mauls the crap out of Lynch all night. go for the spoil and accidentally wipe that smile off his face

Surely you can't be shocked by this? I'm surprised he will get to 100 Hopefully the BS channel 7 narrative around the game isnt comparing how many wins/losses Martin and Jones have comparatively. turn a positive into a negative. I can almost here Darcy spew this [censored] out already

The First bounce will be Gawn, Clarry, Trac and Kozzi. They can worry about us. Martin dominates regardless, not worth losing a player with a hard tag, especially as we don't have a natural tagger in the team

Hibbered Defintion - To be 'Hibbered' - to get schooled by Hibberd in a action that decides a contest. eg, Hawks early Q4, Round 4 2021

The biggest question yet to be answered is - Is May fit to play or not?? Any news from the club on this or is it just rumour? It will be very difficult to win with Petty in instead of May Aside from that Fritsch and Weed come in for Brown and Melksham

B Brown kicked two in the first Q and then was not involved much - fair to say he needs another week to get match fit Fritsch in for Brown May in for Petty Weed in for Melksham and our team lol so much better

Easy 50 point win as predicted

We need May in and Petty out ASAP

The changes thread for next week will be interesting! brown for Brown? t Mac for Weed?

Smashing these punks. Vanders kick to BB, kick to Chandler. Misses good footy though. Nice skills

Great snap from Bedford! GOAL!

We are second with a % of 138. We beat last years grand finalist by 4 goals. We have been leading for majority of each game so far and the results have never really been in doubt. We haven’t played a bottom 6 team from last year yet. The dogs have and have beaten up on them

A good team. 13 senior players. Will be Good to see how Baker and the Rosman go on the wings I reckon we need to draft in some mids. We seem to be lacking depth in our reserves

Our confidence is up and different to other years we playing a solid system and playing for each other as a team. we’ll win by 50pts plus

Agree that would help. Although our inside mids are suffering the same way with the game style change like Viney or Clarry i think it is highlighting his poor kicking skills even under no pressure.

The amount of times I’ve heard the Saints and Blues have gone past us in the past year. play the long game guys. We have the better squad. Obviously it is yet to be seen if we will be successful but we are well ahead of those two atm

I reckon by 2027 we may know if we are playing better in 2021

Is Cripps really a star of the comp or just a very good player? Oliver and Trac crap all over him imo

What a great Sat night. Pies, Bombers, Blues all rubbish

25 -9 free kicks to the bombers. they still [censored]
