AFL Toast Round 9: 34 Point win against the Pussies

[DallasCrane316]

Great win. The tricky thing for next week is who goes out for Josh Green?

Laverde for me.

 

[Skip Donahue]

I wasn't able to watch this game. Gutted.

I would be very greatful to anyone who would be kind enough to rate each essendon player (out of 10?) today.

Bags, take a bow.

What a ****ing game!!

It’s like a new angle was cast into the coaches box & we thought outside it for once!!

Who’d have thought....

 

[Donakebab]

David King just gave Woosha a bake because he wasn't more jubilant in his press conference, saying the fans deserve better. Seriously, go and get ****ed you dense brick! We just gave one of the top sides a good old flogging, Woosha having a poker face in the presser after the media parasites have been savaging us for weeks is the least of our concerns right now, it's understandable he doesn't want to have a laugh with you miserable pricks after you've been writing about his job being in jeopardy all weeks.

I thought James Stewart did good today. He won’t get much credit because smack kicked a bag but he was really good around the ground

I loved Woosha’s press conference. Gave them nothing.

Fans don’t need to see him carry on after this win, I was happy to hear him say they’re focused on next week now. Perfect response.

 

[Darealrath]

Stringer showed he can be very effective without doing anything extraordinary. Had some good cameos in the midfield too, so that experiment isn't quite over.

 

[Dons4days]

The big question, who goes out for McGrath?

His press conference earlier in the week seemed like a bit of a turning point.
Stuck up for Neeld publicly, even though we sacked him.
Stuck up for his players.
Stuck up for Baggers.
Gave plenty of nothing answers to stupid questions.
Intimidated the journos. Might as well of told them they know bugger all about football and even less about what is happening in the inner sanctum.

This is about changing the culture of the club. The players know he has got there back, unlike previous administrations (Evans).

I reckon kudos to smack again been bloody good for 2 weeks. Haven't felt that much satisfaction in a game for a long time. Controlled it well.totally enjoyed it.

Yeah, he had a change in attitude in that interview. He didn't want a bar of anything the reporters had to say

 

[DapperDon]

So i missed everything because i chose beer over Essendon.

Can't wait for the replay, perfect hangover cure.

I am stunned

 

[daffo]

Where did that come from?

 

[quotemokc]

Haven't watched the presser but Hooker saying thanks for sticking by us and that we try our best every week meant a lot.

Pros;

- Jordan Ridley: Kid just looks like he belonged tonight. Did what was asked of him and did it well.
- Tippa: That was the Walla of old. Chases, tackles, goals, goal assists.
- Mark Baguley: Reinventing himself as a deffensive forward and is mounting a case to stay there. Keeping Josh Green out of the side.
- We have the better #26
- Dyson Heppel: Arguably his best game for the club in 18 months. Much better than his all round, round 1 game #Leadership
- Zac Merrett: Awesome to see him just get the footy in his hands again. Will only get better for us in the future.
- Kyle Langford: Think this may very well be the game that we can look back on as the making of him as a midfielder. Brilliant in close.
- Fantasia is brilliant. Surely in the mix as our most important player. Period?!
- Jake Stringer/James Stewart: Both played seriously under rated games. Those goals from Stringer were at brilliant times for us. Stewart is just a work horse and revelling in the role of a 1st/2nd KPP.
- Shaun McKernan: If we still had the sub role, you would play SMack for the first half. Brilliant early. Missed out on a big, BIG day.

Sorry first post. Hope I'm in the right joint. To vent and rejoice. 10 year member. Been stalking bigfooty since the saga started as a reference for news as I live in Adelaide the fishbowl of two teams. Finally decided to join up. Not sure how "involved" I will be in discussions. Just really want to converse with EFC fans as I don't have a lot of like minded here. Cheers to all here

 

[windyhill]

Where was everyone !?!?

 

[Donakebab]

They were fishing for a gotcha moment about his job security that they could spin for the rest of the week. He gave that C9 flog a real smack down.
