  1. Did he eat one of their players?
  2. Do they know the team song words? I swear it's the first time I've heard it. Poor bastards. Well done Suns
  3. Really nice summary @binman. I thought Kye Declase had a pretty good game as well. Weids really put in some effort but those hands just aren't holding the footy. I used to be up in Brisbane for quite a few years and was a Lions member for a couple of years during their premiership run (please forgive me, they were my second team and it was a joy to watch blokes like Voss play footy). Alastair Lynch seemed to have a similar problem and me and my mate used to call him rubber chest / iron hands. For about two years he couldn't seem to take a mark. He went away to battle CFS but I'm pretty sure during that time had his eyes checked and came back with contact lenses and his marking was transformed. Just wondering if it really is confidence with Weid because he spills them at VFL level too. Also wondered if Selwood had been over training those Essendon players? So many of them just kept dropping knees and lifting arms to try and pull a free. It was good to see the umps didn't get sucked in much by it. We've got some great depth and it's fantastic to see the senior blokes like Jones, Jetta and Melksham really putting in and showing leadership for the younger ones.
  4. A lot of respect for him after the horrible year he had off field last year and yet he still performed so well. He just does his job really well week in week out.
  5. Yep, I think they were. I'm also getting concerned about how many times our captain gets punched in the back of the head due to faux spoils. He was down on all fours after copping another one on Saturday night. It happens every game without the whistle ever being blown. It can't be healthy for him.
  6. I watched three blatant pushes in the back to our players in the last quarter which weren't paid to us. I didn't think the umps were too bad on the whole either. It was great to see the deliberate rule not paid like it has all season as well. #essenflogs
  7. He's been down a bit the last few weeks and I thought he played a cracking game last night. Considering how poorly we'd marked in the forward line all night, I reckon it was the right decision to soak up time and try and ice the game.
  8. I didn't think I'd ever say this, but go Eagles!
  9. He's having a cracker. Brayshaw seems to be missing. Who shut Merrett down?
  10. I've seen this game before. Our poor entries and goal kicking will lose us this game
  11. The club should put a highlight reel together of Gawn being punched in the back of the head week in week out with no frees paid
  12. I thought we lifted in the 2nd when Oliver started to dominate.
  13. He had a paddock and was their best player last week. Wtf
  14. Gawn is clunking them. Move him forward and put LJ into the ruck.
  15. The old demons would drop this game like a school case The new demons will grind them into the dirt Go new Dee's!
  16. This is truly wonderful. It could turn into the best round of footy all season.
  17. If you couldn't be arsed making the contest, just fall over him.
  18. Exactly! Finish them off Saints. Richmond 9th sounds awesome
  19. Trying to keep the Tigers in it
  20. Stringer seemed to be the stand out last week. Shut him down and we're half way there.
  21. Yep, it would essentially be like having to play an extra final at the cattery in round 23.
  22. The guy can not speak without shouting.
