[Mootsy]

Definitely missing Redman & Guelfi out there. Maybe Parish.

Rids as well.

 

[Nifft]

Anyone else with the Kayo feed? Did they just stay that Papley came off the ground sooking to the Fox team that we were going them off the ball?

Yes

 

[Call Me Cake]

Guelfi would've been handy when bringing the ball to ground in the forward line.

The defensive transition needs a lot of work but it would have been less of a factor if we've been able to take advantage of our superior inside 50 count by either honouring the leads or holding it in.

 

[tha Freak]

Jeez I hate these campaigner’s, got to lower our eyes going forward. We are killing them in the centre but butchering it when going forward. Get that sorted and we will kill these arrogent turds.

 

[jdstorm]

Our 2 way running has improved a little. Not as good as Sydney's, but we have only had 5 goals kicked on transition so far. Better that I thought it would be tonight.

Biggest difference seems to be

Sydney: sprint then Coast once they have space

Essendon: Coast until they realise where they need to run to. Then sprint.

 

[boncer34]

Heppell on Papley. That'll make everyone happy.

 

[The Airing of Grievances]

Certainly not Hind

Does anyone realise that Hind is on Papley? Pidge has been on Wicks

TBH I wasn't sure who his opponent was whoever it was rarely in the same postcode as Papley

 

[Cold Sober]

Forget who we're missing, we should be well in front.

 

[Burzum]

WTF is Stringer doing?

 

[mcgrath_truther]

wasteful jake

 

[MightyDon]

These clowns at half time trying to get 2MP rubbed out, he has every right to contest the mark and every right to protect himself from the opposition recklessly running back with the flight.

 

[Yoda_]

we can barely get a key forward fit, they have 3 playing in the one game

 

[windyhill]

Not sure that was the percentage play, 1 metre left it was the percentage play.

 

[mcgrath_truther]

good hands peter

 

[Beerfish]

Just left Cox hanging

 

[Burzum]

Brilliant mark 2MP!

 

[Nifft]

Jake’s forgotten it’s a contract year…

 

[mike14]

Well done Wright

 

[Cold Sober]

We.re in this big time it's ours to lose.

 

[Happyskeret]

You got the Wright stuff baby!

 

[bommer16]

Good work Pete

 

[mcgrath_truther]

no one in the comp kicks it as straight at 2mp right?

he's so consistent, it's great

 

[Mootsy]

all that cola helps.

im really torn on the incident.. at first glance I was like "ffs, its a contact sport", second viewing I was like "yep, hes in trouble". I think you've hit nail on head. he had eyes on ball the whole way and only late did he realise contact was coming to which he braced to protect himself.

Not an ideal result but * me, its been blown way out of proportion
