AFL 2019 Round 13: Essendon v Hawthorn, 7:50pm AEST Marvel Stadium

[SHAKESPEARE]

Didn't say that, but do you think they should get off Scot-free?

Hell no. Should be suspended, fined, stripped of captaincy and delisted.

 

[Unfazed]

Well technically the minor bruising is an injury.

Actually with Fantasia's injury history I'm expecting nothing less than a serious blood clot leading to full stroke.

 

[JayJ20]

We didn't kick a goal from the Guelfi HTB

I mentioned previously the high contact on Tippa was a bad call.

Sicily is allowed to try and shepherd the goal through.

You could play what ifs all day in any game of football and most supporters are going to remember the ones missed for their side or paid against them, not the other way.

We didn't get an armchair ride from the umps and the frees we got weren't the only reason we kicked the score we did.

You guys played better than us and won but the standard set by both teams and the umps wasn't great.

People always focus on the frees that lead to a shot on goal but don't think about the impact of all the other ones.

I think the final score was about right.

We kicked our season average, you guys kicked a couple of goals above yours and that's what you won by.

I don’t think you got an armchair ride at all. I just think you had a few calls go your way that made the score line look better than it was. It’s insignificant from the perspective of our season so hardly a big deal. We’ve had far worse umpiring this season that actually cost us the 4 points. And Hawthorn generally also cop bad umpiring as well

 

[Adz]

No.

Because it does.

No it doesn’t.

 

[TheSunGod]

Hell no. Should be suspended, fined, stripped of captaincy and delisted.

Bit harsh. Just needs his mum to come down and scold him, pinch him twice as hard so he knows how it feels and send him to his room until he learns his lesson.

 

[boncer34]

No it doesn’t.

You can't find the crowd on the AFL website?

 

[JayJ20]

No it doesn’t.

It's always at the end of the match report. Click on the match centre.

 

[TheShardMan]

the dude is a 3 time premiership player and current captain of the club. but in the eyes of many he will now be remembered as Captain Pinchy. So stupid and pointless. Was it worth it?

 

[PerthBoy86]

Hell no. Should be suspended, fined, stripped of captaincy and delisted.

You think pinching's okay, got it.

 

[PerthBoy86]

Actually with Fantasia's injury history I'm expecting nothing less than a serious blood clot leading to full stroke.

Heh yeah

 

[Donakebab]

[Rod Stroker]

Oh Rodney.

Let's not start this fight, nobody wants to embarrass North again. Good Friday was bad enough.

We look forward to ending your season next month, in front of your home crowd, assuming they turn up.

Hey Rodney when was the last time the Roos managed 46k to a home game not involving us?

 

[Rod Stroker]

Bit like good Friday, nth begged for big brother Essendon and crowd is 70% Ess.

Begged. Big Brother. LOL!

I assure you, we don't look to Essendon as a guide on how a football club should conduct itself.

You missed this one Rodney.

Yeah, thanks Wayne.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

Hawks got four goals from free kicks
Ceglar's from a soft down field in the back
Moore's from an actual high tackle
Scully from being held in a marking contest, possibly soft, possibly there I only saw one angle so hard to tell
Breust's soft in the back free

We still kicked 7 other goals.

Bombers got two from free's, holding the man which was questionable as the ball was knocked out in the tackle and a HTB on hardwick paid advantage that went through

They still kicked 12 other goals

We got more goals from frees than they did but we didn't get 7 and they weren't all definitely not there

Scully held Zaharakis. Tippa got one high that wasn’t paid that was same as the one Moore got. Even first goal of the game was a soft in the back. The Breust one was beyond comical.

The one with Guelfi, Razor Ray said he dived on the ball when he just went down and got straight back up. How is that prior opportunity?

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

You’re having a massive sook mate, maybe you should do something else. Criticising home crowd of 45k is just ridiculous

 

[Bunk Moreland]

He’s had a good night Stratton. Reported for serious misconduct (pinching). Reported for stomping on McKernan. Fined for flipping the bird to the crowd.

If it wasn’t for his 11 superb touches and 3 marks you’d almost say he was poor.

 

[Milanista28]

Hawks fans thought they could be us.

 

[Mercy Seat]

Probably not.

Funnily enough, one of the best blokes you'd meet in footy and much loved not just by his own club but players from other clubs (even runs a beer company with a few Essendon boys). He'll prob be booed for the rest of the year at least.

 

[windyhill]

Yet look at all those empty seats. Good to see the home team members and supporters turn up.

7k today nth v gws , that's a training crowd for Essendon
