Round 5, 2014: Essendon V St Kilda @ Docklands

[Ice-Wolf]

Well done Saints

Would it be reasonable to say best win in past two years?

Nope the 70 point demolishing of Fremantle was better.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

Essendon hahahahahaha

Well done Saints

V Freo for the feel good factor or V Bombers in 2012.

 

[Salisbury]

Saints travelling well. Good win

 

[Whit3y]

i have no doubt essendon has lost this game because bomber thompson has been to upbeat lately.

 

[frednirk]

Or not. All over. Essendon so inconsistent. Will they play finals? Heat is on at Win I mean Tullamarine.

They don't care. They have the biggest game in the universe next week Anzac day! Essendon don't need premierships anymore. Anzac day will sustain them.

 

[MrPresident]

Happy for the Saints. There's a lot of teams I'd rather see in the bottom 4 than them. Especially since they got rid of Ross Lyon.

And any day Essendon loses is a good day for football.

 

[underthestars]

Oh yes the saints!
Went marching in!

 

[THRILLHO]

Just curious as to the thought process that ends up with a grown man in an Ironman suit wearing a Saints guernsey.

 

[AtomicBlonde]

The arrogance needs to beaten out of our players. They thought after the first quarter it'd be a cake walk and this is what happens. Saints were superb tonight though, really showed up our game plan once the pressure was applied.

 

[HBF]

I've had the Carlton board bookmarked the last few weeks, looks like we've all got a new place to go for some giggles.

Fair call.
Hasn't been a very happy place over the last month.

 

[Rod Stroker]

EssenLOL!

Well done Saints.

To the Bombers board!

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Hibberd 1 tackle.
Hurley 1 tackle.
Zaharakis 1 tackle.
Heppell 1 tackle.
Fletcher 0 tackles.
These are appalling and atrocious numbers. Cant be a good team and win games with this sort of pressure. Wonder if the coach has lost them already?

Hurley's never been a tackler. Doesn't get involved.

Nerds do the strangest things.

 

[Demonic Ascent]

Hooker been the difference....

This was the guy Essendon were convinced would land them Caddy yeah?

 

[Tzatziki_Man]

Fair call.
Hasn't been a very happy place over the last month.

Yeah don't worry, I didn't even watch the replay of Richmond-Brisbane, we're s**t too.

 

[Whit3y]

its as if bomber thompson has been treating his coaching this year like its a comedy club, him smiling and being really upbeat

cant win games with a attitude like that bomber

 

[Greggy]

Suppose to be at work?

 

[mxett]

Well played saints. Certainly deserved the win and played very well

 

[bkozican]

Just clicked over.....wow, not exactly the score I thought I would see

 

[Astro_]

Goddard has tears of joy knowing the work he did with the youngsters at St Kilda has left the club's future in great shape

 

[TheMcGrathMan]

Best game Hayes has put in for a fair while I'd say. Vintage. Hell, probably one of his best since the NS.

 

[Big Bryza]

#standbyhird

 

[tazaa]

Saints were beaten up last week. Poor by Essendon to not expect them to redeem themselves.
Riewoldt lead so well tonight, great skipper. Goes to show you dont respect your opponent youll get beat!
James Hird would be choking on his croissant watching that effort.
Surely Fletcher is done? Offered nothing tonight and its time to blood a kid?

 

[NarklesHelmet]

CMON SAINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
