Essendon are EXTREMELY Impressive

[Drummond]

Wow what an improvement from last season. I honestly think this team is for real; they will make the 8 in 2007. They play an exciting, attacking brand of football and are a joy to watch.

Meanwhile the Saints are the biggest pretenders ever.

any team can pretty much make the eight this season.

Richmond and the Kangaroos say hi

 

[boncer34]

Even the Doggies.

 

[CF]

they are impressive, but they also have a lot of young players and this maybe what determines their fate. Young players who have poorer fitness and can be up and down in form. Time will tell, but I definately regret not tipping them....again!

 

[Hawkk]

They'll come back down to earth soon enough

 

[footyfan_25]

I should have stuck with my intial instinct and tipped the Dons.

Saints are so frustrating... havn't tipped them correctly yet this yr

 

[boncer34]

They'll come back down to earth soon enough

Nah.

 

[Smokin_Joe]

They'll come back down to earth soon enough

Thats what you hope

 

[Geddy Lee]

Paddy Ryder is my favourite young player in the league.

That happened last weekend.

*Goal umpires error

 

[BK Eaglesfan]

Looked very impressive today.....certainly a good team to watch as a neutral when they are on song.

 

[Jacko05]

essendon will flog hawthorn no doubt about that

 

[SorryIHammerChicken]

That happened last weekend.

Well lucky that's out of the way then! Dons for the top 4

any team can pretty much make the eight this season.

I hear that every year, and after about Round 10 there are 4-5 teams that you know won't make it.

When you have a couple of very good targets up forward it makes a huge difference.

They midfield isn't playing at slow motion replay speed anymore with the young kids. I think a club with a mature midfield is going to inflict some hurt on those young skinny kids later in the year.

 

[gandaal]

Yep, it'd take a pretty good team to beat them when they're in this sort of form.

Thats was JJ is for. He's back against the pies i would say.

Sheedy = Clarkson's bitch

 

[dan warna]

Sheedy significantly out coached Ross Lyon.

Lyon had no idea.

I think Sheedy manipulated his no name brank midfield to extreme value while Ross Lyon was predictable.

Sheedy must be laughing at St Kilda who traded in the wily motivator GT for a complete ****knuckle in Ross Lyon.

we only got ahead of Melbourne because daniher is more handicapped and Footscray on sheer weight of talent.

I think we are going to struggle this season without our full team, so talent can counter act the stupidity of the handicapped coach.

this will be a year where we see if st kilda can really coach themselves because the morons i the coaches box have no idea.

lol who knows, that assumption might change after we play................

Come on Grant, surely he isn't that bad?

If not for umpire error, Sheedy hasn't beaten Clarkson yet

 

[Smokin_Joe]

Mental scarring at its finest

True. Bombers have a good balance of youth and experience and are playing a good style of footy.

Sad Thommo is out for the year and Sav is retired, we just have no big targets to go to atm.
