Oppo Camp Essendon V Hawthorn banter thread (Round 18)

[Terror Time]

Barry Hall = Hawthorn
Brent Staker = Essendon

 

[Lord Nicholson]

Barry Hall = Hawthorn
Brent Staker = Essendon

Random irrelevant spectator who has achieved nothing = St Kilda

 

[hirdylloydy1]

Don't really know what's to hate, they are an expansion club, similar to gws and gold coast, they have no relevance to the history of our great game. Maybe we should have a thread about hating real clubs?

its good to have a successful team in tasmania.

Hello everyone!! First post here as i got banned from BB without reason....`BB loss, Big footys gain.

Last years performance made me sick.

The cockiness i read from them porcelain smears makes the sickness critical.

But the defeatist attitude from fellow Bomber supporters before a ball is bounced, makes it terminal.

Harden up you flaccid wangs, get loud, get fair dinkum,

Should be a ripping game. Go Dons.

 

[tazhawk]

Being serious for a moment, I think this game will be a hell of a lot closer than a lot of people think.

Buddy not playing against his bunny's will hurt us.

Given that fact, I would say the Hawks by around 13 goals.

These over rated, bloated, over hyped flogs have played two top eight sides in eleven games (including North ).

They have an embarassingly poor ruck division, and an undersized defense whose best tall is Clangermakers. The game is at Etihad and they are genuinely of the opinion that they are an awesome side - where I am struggling to find a premiership favourite in recent times who had so many bleedingly obvious holes to exploit.

Actually no, scratch that I DO remember the last one:

Treat them like the peasants they are.

Solid first post.

Welcome to Big Footy!

I do like how Hawks fans go on about how successful they are, and how rich their history of players have been. They seem to forget it took an Essendon champion in the twilight of his career only 4 years to make their team on the century.

Essendon >> Hawthorn.

Get your hand off it your rich history is all before the 50's we looked after Salmon after you kicked him to the street.
Your team of the Century is mostly from pre 1950 including players that played less than 50 games.Joke!

Hey, that's not fair. You can't blame Robbo for taking a promotion.

If you were CEO of the Nar Nar Goon Scrap Metal facility you'd jump at a promotion to BHP or Rio Tinto. That's the equivalent of Robbo's promotion.

I guess he knows he'll get more holidays as you never get past the first week of the finals.

Is this game Essendon "line in the sand match"???

Why does everyone keep saying that?

Who wants a line in the sand match - what a minnow thing to do.

Has everyone forgotten that not only did the Hawks morons lose the fight, they also had their asses kicked on the scoreboard as well. Hawks copped (from memory) 15 matches or so, and the Bombers 1.

How have we fared against your mob since?
I'll tell you, you are our bitches!

 

[Lord Nicholson]

Didn't they win a whole string in a row after it, though? With the only aberration being '09?

You dont have to go the knuckle!!! You want intensity, numbers to the ball and physcial pressure at the man with the ball.

We saw it 1st hand last week against Geelong.

We beat them the next time we met after the line in the sand match. The next 5 years are a bit of a blur though

No, they were beaten again in the match afterwards.

It's chest beating bullshit.

Essendon, between 2005 and 2008 fielded probably it's weakest long term side in my living memory.

But the Hawks think its something they did....... what a joke. Over inflated sense of self importance.

We lost a whole bunch of games against a whole bunch of opponents in that time.

We've won three of the last five against your mob.

Essendon >> Hawthorn.

Leigh Matthews, Peter Hudson, Lance Franklin & Jason Dunstall are better than any player in Essendon's history.

[Necromancer Beth]

And therein lies the main problem with Roby's power rankings.

You're pretty smart and would actually make a pretty effective troll if you channeled your energies into it.

 

[Necromancer Beth]

You mad?

Sometimes I am.

 

[Pweter]

I note you've picked forwards for all 4 guys mentioned, yet the award for leading goal kicker is The Coleman Medal.

You mad?

The tackle that derailed Carlton season.
