AFL Toast Rnd 18: 21 point win against Adelaide!

[Howard Moon]

Im reminded of 93 v hawks at Waverley, young side takes another scalp...Bruce says "you just get a feeling about a side sometimes don't you?" He was right

I can kinda feel it bubbling away now, we are ticking all the boxes you need to tick to become that momentum side that's hard to stop

Winning ugly tick
Winning from behind tick
Keeping structure tick
Winning when inj players out tick
Winning interstate ... tick
The final hurdle will be putting away poor teams ruthlessly. That's next week's test.

I've been pretty dubious of Woosha but it is starting to seem more and more like his talk of building for longterm success if more than just talk

 

[raskolnikov]

so, I had a sneaky look in the Adelaide autopsy thread...

lol. How obsessed is this Norf flog with us? His name rhymes with Bake Shaker.

That guy is mentally deficient.

 

[Lance Uppercut]

YUUUGGGEEEE!!

 

[raskolnikov]

Hurry up Foxtel and load the replay. I want to watch it again!

It was an impartial moment at the time, but to me, the kick from deep from the back 50 from Snelling that went inbound and not down the line seemed pretty pivotal.

Not a top 10 highlight, but really broke the mold

Snelling rightly gave it short to Hartley who was capable to make that great kick and open up the other side.

Was a great kick.

13.1.79 from our total of 96 started from D50.

How good was McGrath's spoil on Jenkins. The height difference alone is ridiculous.

Yep, an error was made and he quickly made up for it with a huge defensive effort

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

How was that run in the third by Francis where he ended up finding Guelfi in front, he just kept running to receive that handball.

 

[scythe]

I almost forgot to mention our accuracy in front of goal. It's not too often in the last few years an Essendon side kicks a score like 15.6.

That guy is mentally deficient.

What do you expect from a Norfie. They are some of the most marginal people you will ever meet.

 

[Benson FC]

I'm sure it's been mentioned somewhere earlier in the thread, but how good was Mcgrath's follow up from his turn over to spoil Jenkins and force the ball out of play! What a game ❤

 

[Lethal]

First time we've won four straight since 2013.

 

[Bombermania]

Eddie says we need a drink!

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

oh sugar eddie mcguire dont encourage me to open a bottle of wine at this hr lol

 

[Lance Uppercut]

Meanwhile, on the Norf board...

Okay, there's something very, VERY bizarre going on here.

Their ability to completely outrun sides with half a team of spuds is straight up 2013 level bizarre.

There. Is. Something. Not. Quite. Right. Going. On. Here.

never go full Teffy!!

 

[rumply]

Has something changed at the club? This is not the Essendon of the last 14 years.

Woosh moved to the bench, simple as that.

 

[vast]

Meanwhile, on the Norf board...

never go full Teffy!!

Couldnt even get the year right.

 

[quotemokc]

Ambrose just shuts down whoever he is on

 

[Darealrath]

That was huge. What a bloody win.

How about Paddy Ambrose. First game back and keeps Tex quiet early and then moves on to a red hot Jenkins and shuts him down. So reliable.

Hartley looked good too, even when playing up the ground early.

Love McKenna.

 

[The Dustbin]

When we the last time Betts kicked a goal against Ess?

 

[adsla69k]

I've been pretty dubious of Woosha but it is starting to seem more and more like his talk of building for longterm success if more than just talk

Since he started coaching from the boundary the team attitude has changed and also the way Woosha has been post match. When we were struggling at the start of the season he was dishing a lot of BS cliches.
I believe him now. I believe in the team. All I've ever wanted is buy in and true grit win loose or draw. I'm happy!

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Credit needs to go Rutten has got the team playing a defence that keeps us in games.
