Essendon - finals bound 2017

This is traditionally the game where we beat them and put the TB4 laced nail in the coffin of their season.

That said we are playing shitrhouse and have a heap of injuries.

Still, when it clicks we are capable of steamrolling six or seven quick goals on any side, and that would do it.

Goldy showed glipses of decent form last week and Cunners was close to BOG in a side that got done by 70 points.

If those two click and it gets out quickly to BBB on the lead, we can do them.
 
We have to get over North before we can even look that far. North always get up for us and I wouldn't be surprised if they turned us over.
Come on North the number 1 pick is still on offer, you know what you have to do :p

But we only need pick 2 to get Josh Kelly?

Cheap shots aside, this is a massive danger game for us. Doubly so because it's North's grand final. They will make every effort to get up so they can take something out of this season win wise. Hopefully THIS time we get the job done with a 4 quarter effort.

It isn't our grand final, it is just four regulation points we pick up every year.

Such is the metronomic monotony of our wins over you, that I find most of my amusement is had from your supporters.

Just looking at them.

But yes, we will want to get up for this.

In theory you SHOULD carve us up on the transition.

If Big Joe kicks straight early, we're in trouble.

Also, look out for Jy Simpkin in number 21. Something tells me that in the second half he may rapidly age and suddenly bear a stunning resemblance to Boomer Harvey.
 
Have a look at Richmonds draw and there %, they aren't safe.
surely not...

I've read a number of posts from people stating they don't care if they win another game this season as long as they win this one. Not sure I've seen posts waxing lyrical about belting opposition supporters irl before either. Everybody knows this is your grand final. Hopefully it's a good game and we get the points. We really can't afford to drop this one with Footscray and Adelaide still to come.

Who's lacing nails with TB4? Sounds like a lot of effort for nil result really. Is this coffin make expecting better nails? Doesn't work just so you know.

And I agree you are playing 'shitrhouse.'

Oh given the way our season has panned out, beating you here would be a highlight for sure.

But let's be honest, you've been shithouse for about 15 years now.

Gone are the days when you'd be like "Jeez, Essendon this week"
 
Yo Rory I'm only missing your autograph from our primary school year book. Can you please answer me with a time to sign it? I've literally got everyones except for yours.

I think the only way it's Norths Grand final is that if they can't get up for this one, they won't get up for any match.

I'm confident it will be a close match, the way this season's going you'd go with Sportsbet for the 24 point margin payout. Whoever's leading early will probably get rolled.
 
but there's a bunch of other sides in the same spot in such an even season... 2 losses could see them in 9th

Could yes, but the way it was said was if they lost both they'd be gone, its not the case. Essendon have the better % than Melbourne, West Coast, St kilda and the Dogs.
 
Hey Rory, tell us again about that time all you North supporters sang "The Huns are going bust" at our game

Tell us again how you laughed at the idea of - ooga booga - WADA banning your players?
