I give a stuff. I would love to see Essendon win and see the Geelong fans crying yet again.. they are already tearing strips off each other.

I would have thought No Rioli and Campo and Cole would be a bonus not a negative for Essendon. BTW if the Bombers do beat Geelong, surely Thompson's reign at Geelong would become unteneable. Essendon are miles away the worst team in the league this year (they lost to my mob by 5 goals for pete's sake)
FWIW a win could cost them Bryce Gibbs, so they'll probably lose anyway.

Mark Thompsons coaching career. Lose this and id be down at the TAB putting money on him being sacked before the end of the year.
Try by the end of next week

Put a few bob on it then Shell. A draw usually pays $51 so if you lay down 10 bucks, then that's a 500 dollar return. Easy money :D

The amount of times ive heard this sort of crap from Essendon fans over the last nine weeks :rolleyes:

Geelong will start favourities and deservedly so. Anything is possible but to declare Essendon will definitely win is ludicrous.

Isnt it staggering how a team can go from night premiers and flag favourites after round two to being one of the the laughing stocks of the competition with the coach facing the sack in the space of 7 weeks. Anyone saying mark thompson could be facing the sack after round 10 would have been laughed at.

Maybe we've all overrated Geelong, I mean last year they finished the season with a 12-10 record, hardly the win-loss ratio of a flag favourite.
I seriously doubt geelong would sack Thompson, but he's had enough time to turn that club around.

Ben Grahams' departure has hurt them more than they want to admit. He was a huge huge loss. Their only key forward who looked like he could kick a bag.
