ESSENDON BOMBERS

Stopher: I hate these campaigners. Call me petty if you like. Fine. I just hate them
Phone: the turnovers in the third. that's it
windyhill: That and that tip rat papley getting off the leash in that quarter.
Highly Evolved: Stringer, Merrett and Parish couldn't have done too much more.
TDay: Decent effort. Can't complain about the umps. Much better than last week
VexOh: The difference in field kicking was incredible. Our short kicking game is shitehouse, let alone the 50m pings it seems like 90% of the Swans players were capable.
Dave: Great effort to go with them in the second half. They kicked 13 straight after half time. 13 ******* straight. And Razor can go and get f’ed.
Loonerty: any chance we can defend transition
JT_the_Man: Can’t complain, we were beat by a better side. I thought we played well all things considered.
Pweter: Good effort but were definitely beaten by the better side. Sydney's ball movement is deadly
kelvin_sheedy: A whistle goes for a free kick and its like we are hypnotised for 30 seconds trying to work out whats going on.
Beerfish: Great lead in to next week's flogging.

"Bit of a valium-dosed win, yeah, but in a howling gale, to get it done easily, with no injuries, while resting Doc, is a solid achievement and moves us one step closer to that McClellan Trophy in our cabinet."
"Pretty easy win overall. Wish we could have piled it on a bit more but good to just win it comfortably."
"Defended top spot with a good solid win and no injuries."

Perkins omitted, but probably due for a rest. Heppell broke his thumb again (the other one this time), so he'll have surgery and hopefully be back next week. Langford also out for a few weeks after re-injuring his hamstring. Booooo.

Laverde stays in after passing a fitness test this week – no structural damage but he couldn't lift his arm above his head last week due to a shoulder injury – he still kept Buddy quiet with one arm though.

Waterman, Gleeson and Guelfi in.

For the Dogs: Treloar, Duryea and Richards are back for the Doggies. Making way are Mitch Hannan (shoulder), Cody Weightman (managed) and Roarke Smith (omit).

The Tip.jpg


We'll be lucky to keep them under 100 points.

Western Bulldogs by 28.

Congratulations to VelvetSledge & Mrs Sledge, who have just gained a new family member!​
 
We stayed in the game last week because we were able to dominate the centre clearances. I can't see us doing that today. Bracing for a 10 goal loss.
