hes back

 

[Kong]

Perfect song choice.

 

[Darealrath]

Brilliant, again. Loved the montage at the end.

 

[DapperJong]

The montage has me ready for next season. Let’s go bombers.

 

[Albertross]

Appreciate the effort you put in to making these clips every week for us mate. More entertaining than the footy most weeks.

Not sure if we are a group of slow learners or just stupid footballers. Same mistakes made from R1 onwards.

Really hope next year isn't a case of rinse and repeat.

 

[Runk]

‘Lurning.’

Cupido4lyfe if you don't get some kind of award at the B&F I'll be melting my 3 game membership in protest.

Great mix of inside grunt and class finishing. Clearly bleed red and black.

You've won 2019 in my eyes. Top 2, home final, straight through to prelim, ten goal win and then home in a canter on the big day.

Well done and thank you!

 

[owen87]

They should show this footage at the B&F instead of season highlights.

 

[Loonerty]

So good.

I'm sad the season is over, if only because it means no more We Are Essington.

Can't wait for next year Cupido4lyfe

 

[Pweter]

Thanks for all your efforts in 2019 Cupido4lyfe

I hope you can get a good preseason in and hit 2020 refreshed and ready for another onslaught.

 

[CBombers17]

Massive bowl of learnings in that clip.

Thanks Cupido4lyfe you've had a massive season.

 

[TheBrightSide]

Cupido4lyfe, a lock for “Poster of the year” 2019.
I don’t usually vote in that, as I don’t like the idea of ranking people.
But screw it, C4L is clearly better than all of us!

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

Holy Moly after watching that I have the solution. Forget kicking to advantage...forget game plans. What we need to do is try to kick it to the opposition. Give it to them...always. Good chance we will score. That was horrendous. Lol

 

[bombre-boy]

C4L thanks for you efforts through out the season.
The GC player exploding was a season highlight for me.

Cheers

 

[Wangawuti]

Hopefully we can achieve higher learnings next year

[CBombers17]

Watching that video makes me feel even more for all those that went on Adelaide's torture camp.

 

[Milanista28]

Legend mate. Amazing work

 

[JayJ20]

What a thread. What a year.

They should play your highlights after every poor game.

 

[Sanj48]

Honestly, these videos made the highs and the lows of this season even better.
The montage at the end genuinely makes me look back on this rollercoaster of a season with fondness.
Great job Cupido4lyfe - what a season of learnings.

After scouring through the player archives I thought it would be interesting to start a lively debate on the All Essington team of the last 15 years:

FB: Zantuck D Daniher Steinberg
HB: Pears Bradley Hardingham
C: Dyson Slattery Lovett
HF: J Merrett Gumbleton Reimers
FF: Jetta Neagle Williams
R: Laycock Prismall Myers
INT: Cupido Johns Kommer Lonergan

Zantuck or Hardingham can be thrown forward when we’re down 30 in the last quarter.

Bradley takes the number one defender for mine with Pears and Steinberg both going third man up in every marking contest. Daniher to shutdown Fevola.

Prismall and Myers can throw their big bodies around at the contest. Both are inside bulls, which we’ve been crying out for.

Blistering one-way gut-running provided by Lovett and Dyson.

Hank Slattery can shutdown the opposition’s best mid and grab 20 himself.

Gumbleton can pinch hit in the ruck to give the ANZAC medallist a spell. Rest Laycock forward and watch him pluck anything and everything that comes in.

Jetta, Reimers and Shotgun Williams will feast off the Neagle crumbs. J Merrett gives you the option of a negating half forward role. All can and should be rotated through the midfield.

The mercurial Cupido coming off the bench is such a luxury to have, although starting him in the guts would not be out of the question for some added X factor at the stoppages.

If we do make the eight with this team, I don’t think anyone would want to play us. If we add another big bodied mid in the offseason we could challenge top four next year no doubt.

Z Clarke very stiff to miss out.

 

[CBombers17]

Great Essington side. I'd probably go with Cole over Pears of half back and Reynolds very stiff to miss IMO.The rest looks very strong Essington.

 

[TheBrightSide]

Michael Quinn unlucky to miss too.

Harsh on Darcy and Pears. Otherwise, love it!

Ty Zantuck had a shot for goal one night, I reckon it was the worst kick I have ever seen. The thing almost went backwards.
