Game Day Essendon vs Freo @ 11:10 WST

[Cobbler]

I know he's aging, but my golly Mundy in the middle is so good. He seems to make time stop as he bounds out of the middle.

Happy Taberner showed fight in the last 3 games. Still some questions, but deserves a contract even if for 1 more year. If you can't reward a 24 year old tall for what he's done the last 3 weeks, then I just don't get it... has given us a target for sure.

Cox clunking them was awesome.

Proud of the fight, especially in the last when it could be easy to just see the season out limply.

 

[FreoRicci]

Reamed by the umpires early. That pretty much decided the game

 

[Sweetback]

This cheering for Jobe makes me throw up a little.
Drug. Cheat.

I blame the club not the players.

 

[Cobbler]

Bennell had a 10 minute burst where he showed a level above most on the ground.

Mundy's been invisible the past month, but he was our best today

 

[Righteo]

Frustrating but good effort boys.

Screwed again by the maggots but the club will do SFA about it.

What can they do about it though?

Suban , Griffin ,sheriden ,Mj,ballas show enough for one more year contract ,good effort.

meima pls

I thought Suban was pretty good today too

Orgasm occurs when Hird presents the Norm Smith.
Is that the cheat they took the Brownlow off being chaired from the ground??

 

[wayToGo_]

They'll be talking about Jobe and his game high 8 clearances in his final game on all the footy shows. 4 of them were from questionable free kicks but go for your lives.

 

[IAMJUNGLEMUFFIN]

Missed most of the game, but get back hust in time to see Bennell to kick it to Rixx on the lead, who promptly drops a fairly regulation mark.

D-LIST.

Cox has absolute buckets, but his aerobic capacity and stab kicking lets him down.

Not sure why Collins went forward and kersten back? Was Collins lack of speed an issue so they threw shane back?

 

[Square Peg]

Essendon are pretty average though, the damage sydney are going to do to them in the EF will be a sadist's wet dream

 

[Power Raid]

Cheers for your support!

thanks for letting me enjoy the game threads with you guys. It's been great adopting a local side.

 

[imperial_oz]

I blame the club not the players.

Naah. The players were in on it up to their necks. The AFL knew all about it as well

 

[Scham]

What can they do about it though?

meima pls

What every other club does. Complain. Complain and complain again until something is done about it. It's beyond inconsistency now, it's bordering on straight out cheating.

 

[apuchar]

Why do we leave so many loose men outside the stoppages. It kills us every week.

 

[FreoRicci]

Taberner should get his contract. He has done his job, increased his confidence and when he came in, he has been serviceable and taking key marks.

Says it all really, when Kersten was useless as he was yet Tabs was still competing for every kick.

 

[largebus]

Suban , Griffin ,sheriden ,Mj,ballas show enough for one more year contract ,good effort.

Please just no

Not really picking up on the sarcasm well today are you?

 

[FreoRicci]

Please. One game? PLEASE.
Ballas is done, he hasn't done anything for a 2 month period. Then today, possibly his last game, he tried his hardest. We're rebuilding. If Barlow and De Boer were moved on, then Ballas time is definitely up. Suban, Suttclife. Meh. Won't get any better.

 

[salim malik]

I reckon I actually prefer Kersten as a defender.

Yeh he makes a great fool back.

 

[Joao]

Agree with this. This is the year you aim to finish 8th not 7th. I know who I'd rather play out of Port and Sydney...

 

[Deathly]

I reckon I actually prefer Kersten as a defender.

You're joking right? You know he was only sent down there because he was getting embarrassed by Gleeson who is half his width.

His signature * play style of coming in from the side and crashing packs ineffectively actually does more damage down back than forward.

 

[jerms]

It's not the first time he's been back there this year. Admittedly, those occasions have generally been when he's sucked up forward, but I haven't seen him do many things glaringly wrong while defending. He gives great effort, so to speak.

Who can freo get , Matera will score lot in his cameo few matches and get injured for longer period than playing . A club like GC don't even fight hard to keep him or asking for hight draft pick from him like bennell or o Meara.
