Preview Essendon v North Melbourne, Sat 4:35@Marvel // Rd 17 PREVIEW

[Runk]

Let's hope the 'KANGA KANGA KANGA crowd' locates the stadium like they have this thread.....could be a sell out.

 

[Rad Roo]

injuries wont decide this game.
tackle pressure and kicking efficiency will.

well that's a given of course.

 

[Rad Roo]

North running on fumes and emotion and about to come crashing down to earth.

Essendon by 30+ points.

North back to their capitulating ways for the rest of the season.

More heads roll.

did someone say kfc

 

[Beerfish]

Will be a great win if we can overcome our injuries to beat a North that's been enjoying a very bouncy dead cat of late.

 

[Yojimbo]

With the Heppell injury North Melbourne should win this, Essendon should list Heppell's brother I think
it's Aaron for memory got a bit of go about him.

With the Bellchambers and Draper injuries they were already in the box seat.

Will be huge if we can pull this off.

 

[Milanista28]

Easy win

what does any of that have to do with where the clubs are now though?
what are you trying to achieve?
if you wanna bash each others clubs history...you fighting a losing battle and wasting your time.
you've won more cups by a very large margin...but that's not what your club is known for.
Carey/Goldy stuff won't help you here.
we're known as a club fighting to survive, Bombers are known as...well you know.

Obviously I was responding to a North who brought up our history when North’s isn’t flash either. Bit of banter you know

That was the plan. We were just looking after a club legend by bidding up his price.

Fantasia, on the other hand, just wants out. My favourite bit was when he said he would rather live in Adelaide than play for you guys.

Looking forward to you providing that quote...

Some bloke on big footy. Where all the serious journos source their stories.

Another " big fish" jumps off the hook

 

[Maxabillions]

Crushing blow to North with ANOTHER big fish not prepared to trade opportunity for money.

You'd have to think this will be very demoralising for the team.

Nope, sigh of relief across the board

 

[Fridge16]

North not worried about missing out on ANOTHER big fish in Longmire because they have the tactical master Rhys Shaw...

That is until they get Shelacked tomorrow and Shaw looks like a long lost Scott brother in the box.

 

[Great8]

North in a lot better form than us and you only have to kick 10 goals to be in with a shot against us. Goldy will do some nasty things to Clarke

 

[Great8]

Good game for the neutrals. Don't think alot of them realise the mutual hatred and how far it actually goes back.

Bit of a one way rivalry IMO.

Considering you have the nick name of a north premiership player you must love north

Obviously!

 

[Hird05]

Yep you did it well although Cunnington was huge that game. Essendon have to find a way to stop him as Myers has been terrible this year (and out of the team this round I assume) and Stringer just pinch hits in the centre (and is too valuable up forward).

We have this kid who held some bloke called Cripps to 11 possessions. He normally destroys us.

 

[Fridge16]

Is that Mark Roberts? 99?

 

[Hird05]

Must must must must be terminated brutally, hopefully a big Ziebell tackle that twists an ankle or massive hip and shoulder like last week. If he goes Down, it would rock Essendon, let’s say he gets injured in the opening minutes, Essendon to lose by at least 50.

Highly intelligent post
