Brisbane v Essendon @ Carrara 16/2/08

[lionbear]

Essendon remind me a lot of us this time last year, a lot of young guys running the legs off there opposition. If they keep this up they will go along way in the NAB cup.

Great performance so far, tackling and running off the back line has been superb.

And here comes the rain....

Agreed.

Would be good to see some of the kids in this match go somewhere. Might be telling of the Essendon 2-3 years from now.

 

[Cousin Jed]

Don't think anybody knew the rules on some of those kicks.

You can see Knights has worked hard on getting more leg speed into the Bombers. With there Key position players to come back in they could be a lot better combination that what people thought over the summer.

 

[ManWithNoName]

I'm excited by the kids. I'm even more exicted by the fact I get to go to the footy next friday night It's been FAR too long.

Henderson kicks his 3rd after the siren

 

[High Ryder]

Nash was so far the best player on the ground it wasn't funny.

 

[Tambu]

Brisbane by plenty.. their midfield will be too strong.

It's good being wrong sometimes!

He is such a good player. Not only are his skills exquisite, but he is very hard at the ball.

 

[The Flying Belgian]

Agree Nash looked good. Bombers fans must be excited by Dempsey too. Who was the overage rookie wearing 40 (I think)?

 

[topdon]

Who was the overage rookie wearing 40 (I think)?

Dean Dick

 

[High Ryder]

Dean Dick

I think he was talking about number 38, Jarrod Atkinson played in the VFL for Bendigo last year.

Always knew Dempsey was a talent, looked very good but i can still see alot of improvement in him. I know this is a huge all but he has the potential to be a similar player to Mcleod.

 

[The Flying Belgian]

Ah yep, Atkinson was the one. Git a bit of mongrel in him too.

Dean Dick?

Yeah Dempsey is a real wild card for us, the boy could be anything.

I think your talking about Danny Chartres or Damian Atkinson, the indigenous overage rookie on our list. Our stand out rookie was Rhys Magin #34, who looked a true footballer.

How good was Henderson tonight? For a KPP he showed a heck of a lot. Outpointed Michael on a couple of occasions & also outpointed Lovett-Murray. The Lions may have found themselves a CHF to allow Brown to play deep in the forward line. Obviously he will need a couple of years to develop, but he is going to be good 'un.

 

[Monnii]

Have just gotten home from the game . . .
):
Was surrounded by Bombers everywhere !!
Chris Johnson is now a runner..

It's Jarrod Atkinson. What's the bet his nickname is Rowan?

Magin looks a future gun.

I was dissapointed by the loss on the walk to the car park, all I could think about was how impressive Henderson was. Put him next to Brown and Bradshaw and he could be a nightmare for opposition coaches.
