GC by 23pts

 

[HirdyLannister]

Unlosable game for GC against an injury ravaged Essendon

 

[kreglze]

Should get Rosas and Flanders back. Hope the midfield bounce back from getting rolled last week.

 

[Great8]

Feel like the AFL missed a golden chance here with scheduling. I know a few Bombers fans including myself who would’ve gone up there and made a weekend of it but a Sunday twilight game just made travel home too hard so will give it a miss.
Think the Suns win by under a kick

 

[Bring Back the Wave]

Expecting a huge response from our mids this week. Given our home form - I think we'll be too strong.
Suns by 16 points

2 wins against Essendon in their 13 year history.

One by 2 points (at Carrara) when Hird had just resigned as coach and Matthew Egan

took over as caretaker.

One by 10 goals (also at Carrara) against the misfit ‘top up team’ of 2016. The favour was returned, embarrassingly for them, later in the year at Marvel.

8 positions above them and 2.5 wins. $2.30 underdogs. Hardwick called us an “bunch of spuds” in his most recent coaching outing against us. Interesting.

Expecting a good game.

 

[TheUnicorn]

Will our midfield be too quick or will their midfield be too big. Considering it's probably gonna be a little slippery I'd go with the latter.

I wonder if Guelfi takes on Flanders.

 

[JayJ20]

I think this'll be the long awaited loss. No Draper, Parish, Setterfield and Hobbs means we're really light in the middle for clearance or contested-ball winners. Gold Coast at home are a very strong midfield team.

 

[Jirik13]

Unlosable game for GC against an injury ravaged Essendon

Who are you missing from best 23? Draper, Setterfield, Duursma, Parish?

 

[HirdyLannister]

Who are you missing from best 23? Draper, Setterfield, Duursma, Parish?

Also Hobbs, Cox and Reid.

Essendon is performing admirable considering the injuries and the second tier players are performing above expectations like Hind, Lav, Heppell (was shot last year)

Just curious, who would Hobbs and Reid replace with healthy list?

Timeslot terrible. Should have been the earlier game out of the two on Sunday.
Also likely to be wetter than a cinema seat after fifty shades.

[Vindicater]

Can't see us bearing them at home.

Wet weather still not our thing either.

 

[Foxx]

Hand us the 4 points now Gold Coast, and we won't come and infect all your players with covid.

Now that Bryan/Roberts are in we should get this done comfortably!

[The Devils Advocate]

I think we will get smashed this week. Too much flu going through the team.

 

[HirdsTheWord]

we have dished up garbage the last 2 weeks + the flu
