At what point is Bevo playing Lachlan Bramble over Caleb Daniel some form of salary cap breach and something the AFL and AFLPA mediate to resolve?
 
Nice q4 upcoming.
Bombers better organised.
But Dogs just need one big effort and their forwards need to stand up.
 
Not sure that’s a good look for either player to be honest.

Stringer getting salty about not being given the ball.

Langford for not giving it when he really should have.

Not very team oriented, maybe I’m just used to watching Geelong who would almost always give that handpass.
If you know anything about Essendon.
You know that if Langford plays on, he misses that handpass and it goes through for a behind.
I am glad he kicked it, it was a late advantage call.

BT saying "The Dogs will know they are a real chance"

What game is he watching? They don't look any chance.

Essendon are all over them.
Their ball use is a dog's breakfast
 
My observations..

- Essendon are developing a habit of playing awful for the first 20 minutes if quarters, then dominating the last 7-8 minutes.
Their opponents however in a couple if games I e seen, haven't capilitised on their chances when in control.

- Riley West's head is legitimately enormous. He's gotta lay off the nerve tonic.

- Funny how exciting Stringer gets when he kicks a goal, versus how disinterested he appears when his teammates kick a goal.

- Please cease calling Ugle-Hagan a supuperstar.

- As much as I don't like public pile ons, I'm glad to hear Weightman getting booed. Hopefully this happens to all the known stagers and starts to act as a deterrent. Staging literally wrecks the game.

- The Bulldogs seem to have a strategy to bomb long down the line. They do it a lot. Not like most teams do from Marks or Free Kicks - they do it a hell of a lot during regular play. It's incredibly wasteful.

He's just Trying to keep the viewers interested I guess.

They're 14 points down. 5 minutes of good form and they'll be in front.
 
if I’m a supporter of an oppo club that is about to play either of these sides next week I’d be getting pumped for a confidence booster*
