Autopsy AFL 2023 Round 21 - Bombers v Eagles Sat August 5th 1:45pm EST (Marvel)

[TW Sherrin]

Indisputable the 3rd team had a massive influence on that game

 

[bzparkes]

Jesus, that was not the stressful game I was expecting.

 

[The 747]

ah well, well done Bombers, better side but hope you enjoyed us giving it a real crack

Great to see the Eagles play with real competitive spirit today

 

[kaiserchief13]

Phew.

 

[TheUnicorn]

Well that was something... I'm sure that's probably perfect scenario for West Coast supporters? Showed heart and were competitive and still have Harley Reid in your sights?

 

[Kreuuuzeurns]

How embarrassing

 

[HairyO]

How completely s**t are the Bombers ?!?

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Aside from that match saving mark, Zerk-Thatcher was absolutely monster's by Oscar Allen

to come across.

 

[Back Pocket Rocket]

Amazing win. Very brave.

 

[Mister B]

LOL. Imagine celebrating falling over the line against the worst in the league after getting the benefit of some dubious umpiring throughout the last. Anything less than the easiest fixture in the history of the league and they would be bottom 4.

 

[cactuscall]

Bummer...s.

 

[TheKanga]

Thought Harley Reid was ours

 

[Plugger35]

Essendon getting out of jail there.

So close to an embarrassing loss.

 

[bzparkes]

Well that was something... I'm sure that's probably perfect scenario for West Coast supporters? Showed heart and were competitive and still have Harley Reid in your sights?

Would've preferred a brave 4 goal loss but Essendon kept missing gimmie goals.

 

[Byron_Clanger]

Thank God...it would be like us to be the worst team in league history for 95% of the season then at the very end win meaningless games and finish second last..

 

[Veer Right]

lmao at Essendon fans cheering that mighty win scraping over the WAFL eagles at HOME

 

[CCurnow3votes]

Bombers to win this, but it won't be by a big margin.

You got that right

 

[CrowToon]

Essendon defender eyes off ball? Tick
Eyes on Allen? Tick
Impeded run at contest? Tick

Damn, pity umpires pay frees depending on the ground they are at.

 

[Outtatym]

Well done West Coast

 

[bzparkes]

Lol, clear shepherd on Allen when Zerk-Thatcher took that mark too.

 

[flamethrower]

3 votes - umpire who threw the ball straight to Essendon player at the last stoppage.

 

[St_Pyro]

What a pathetic rabble. Just fold

That’s a bit rough. ..I’m sure the bombers will improve one day

 

[horj89]

Horrific. Even if we lost that I wasn’t even going to be upset. I’ve just become so used to that rubbish.

We lose next week comfortably if we play anything like that.

 

[Roobs321]

that sloppy stoppage ballup which lead to the goal still pisses me off, should've been recalled. no slight to the bombers, but at that late stage think the ump should've done better

 

[Substance]

Probably the worst win of the past 10 years. But it's a win.
