Lets pinch one on these plicks. Come on

Good pressure Hunty to cause the turnover.

Let’s see how the coaches address this at quarter time. Obvious Geelong are getting numbers back to crowd our forward line and when they win the ball they are happy to chip short and frustrate us. Reminds me of Round 1 2018 before we came back at them.

Heard some ‘experts’ in previews of our game say our weekend off last week is like a bye. They reeled off a stat of us having a 4-6 record after a bye since 2011. Irrelevant imo...last week was no bye, usually the boys have a few days off. Have absolutely no idea how it will turn out today, with pretty much a full list available the pressure will be on for some to lift their game. What a nice day to be at the G.

Lol, best part of the game was the camera work on Townsend’s shot. Just showing the ball in flight and teasing Ess fans with the accurate kick thinking it was through. Touched an inch out, great theatre.

Sheesh, Merrett must have hit Silvagni in the sweet spot if he’s done for the night. Interesting to see Mr MRO’s assessment of the incident.

Do we have a scratch match this weekend? Haven’t seen anything mentioned, although these aren’t close to the real thing they are somewhat important for development purposes.

Wonder if O Mac is in consideration for this week. I’d like to think so at least. May on Hawkins most likely, Smith about 10 cms shorter than Ratu, or do we play Lever on Ratu?

Yes a bit odd TLE, just thinking if we fly in on game day the boys’ alarms will need to be in fine form.

Anyone know why our game against Freo has been brought forward to a 12:35 pm start? Just curious, means some of us will be into the cans earlier than expected.

I hope the club tells everyone to stick it where the sun don’t shine if they ask us to play tomorrow night. Essendon pissant fans celebrating all this....Go Blues!!!

Does the article mention if any coaches are to be quarantined? In the vision from their training the other day along with the coughing and splattering McKenna is also seen spitting into his hands for ‘grip’ and putting his arms around a coach in a drill seconds later. Well, most players are seen doing this during games then tackling blokes but we can’t have contact at full training??

I think the big question from this is, do SuperCoach points count? Amazing how most of us were hanging out for a bit of footage from yesterday. Shows how much we need a bit of footy to escape reality for a while. Watching an intra club video in the middle of winter, only at Melbourne FC hey...no fault of our own though. Bring on the Cats.

Not a bad fix at all. Love seeing Hunt dash with the ball, involved in quite a few goals.

Goodness, Crows need Ricciuto to put the boots back on.

Us playing a depleted Essendon team.....what could possibly go wrong ???

Bugger... no stream. Something to do with broadcasting rights ??, Mahoney does say we are trying something tactical for the Cats, that we can understand.

Lol, we would totally neglect the fact that we played like poo for 3 quarters, we would definitely single out that single brain fade as the cause of the loss.

Are you talking about the ball he tapped back into play from the goal line JD? Picture this forum if that was one of ours and we’d lost by under a kick.

This is Game Day I guess. Yay.....just don’t hurt each other.

The 7 report stated he was at the club this morning and the club insists he came into contact with only a few players and officials.

Anyone catch the Channel 7 report? Caught the end of it. McKenna reportedly was at club this morning and came into contact with a select few. Pretty sure they said all Ess players/staff will get tested but not until Tuesday.

Who is our best option for Tippa? He was one that got away from us in last year’s game playing a high half forward role. Would anyone entertain the thought of throwing Smith on him at some stage if Tippa is running us off our legs?

Looks like this thread found its way over there. What they're saying down at Windy Hill (Pregame) 45 Melbourne folded like cheap furniture against FC. We should ■■■■■■■ smash them. Gawn must be rolling on the floor laughing at Bellchambers today. Phillips needs to come in to provide more of a contest around the ground for Gawn. I’d consider two... • Seems im popular in this thread And.... • That Demonland page is actually pretty well balanced. As barnz said, they are expecting their team to ■■■■ it up just as much as we are.
