Will either be a Saints blow out or either team by a goal.

Thinking it's gonna be a close one. Saints are up and about.

 

[Beerfish]

Saints by 23.

When is Jake due back from the all-you-can-eat buffet?

 

[projectv]

Can't wait for this one, hope the crowd is big enough for the big show Phillipou.

out is a worry. Might just be the straw that breaks the camels back in terms of injuries.

Also a good chance for some of the younger mids that have been looking for opportunity so keen to see how they go.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

When is Jake due back from the all-you-can-eat buffet?

I say this week.

Played in the vfl yesterday 22 disposals and a goal also set up countless score assists and won a handful of center clearances

Jake hungry for some Saints

Looks like he’s a eaten a few already to be fair

 

[HirdyLannister]

Saints up and about for March premiers.

They're playing their Grand Final this week.

 

[god_of_the_universe]

Bombers have been a bit of a bogey team for us at times.

Saints never really play well in milestone type games either.

Ross the Boss needs to get the group motivated to put in the same work rate as the last couple of games if we're to get up.

 

[Zephyr Effekt]

When is Jake due back from the all-you-can-eat buffet?

The answer lies within your question.

Never.

 

[Zephyr Effekt]

Can't wait for this one, hope the crowd is big enough for the big show Phillipou.

It's not an Essendon home game though...jk

The Pou is a jet, no doubt about that.

 

[citizen-erased]

Dont know why I think we'll win this.

 

[projectv]

Dont know why I think we'll win this.

You guys have a habit of belting us when we've been favoured over the last number of years.

So you'd be more than a decent chance if we don't bring our best game.

 

[citizen-erased]

So you'd be more than a decent chance if we don't bring our best game.

And oddly we're in the best form ive seen us since we were doping. Midfield is working hard both ways. Our 3 best fwds of the last few years are out and we're kicking 100+
But mostly we've been challenged in games (not much in the hawks one) and responded

Should be a good game, but think steele is one too many outs.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

I'm gald the Suns made it tough for us to win it sent a reminder to the group that they won't be playing Hawks every week in saying that i think the Saints will win.

 

[Zevon]

Steele is a big out, especially given how well Setterfield is going as that big bodied mid for Essendon. Tips it slightly in the Bombers favour I reckon.

 

[Milanista28]

Parish, Merrett, Setterfield and Shiel all playing well, if we are to win this lot need to control the middle. Should be fun.

 

[Westlo]

Zerk plays and we win

 

[catscollector]

Why is St Kilda favourites in this game?
Essendon will welcome back Stringer and Weideman while St Kilda lose their best midfielder.

Going to be a close game but Essendon will have too much class and go 3-0 for the first time since 2013.

 

[Xtreme]

Essendon by 6

 

[windyhill]

When is Jake due back from the all-you-can-eat buffet?

About the same time May is due back from his anger management course.

 

[mr bagcroft]

Saints by one 186 points

 

[HirdsTheWord]

This one's hard to call. Especially with rain on the forecast.

Saints have a s**t load of injuries, and we are genuine bottom 4. Both teams are 2-0 but both have beaten no one.

Think it will be close but i feel like saint might get up for the 150th.
