VFL Footscray vs Essendon, Whitten Oval 11:35

[DognBones]

West starts in centre for first bounce and within 30 seconds we kick a goal.

 

[Dogsman16]

bedendo with the floater through the big sticks. 2 early goals.

 

[Testekill]

****ing soft 50, umpires are looking after Essendon.

 

[Virgin Dog]

Nice 80m penalty to gift a goal

 

[Testekill]

Khamis has his second

 

[mattwa]

How is JUH going?

 

[weltschmerz]

Bombers have a Weightman out there, does Cody have a younger brother?

Unrelated, this one's from the Essendon area and Flea's from Officer

 

[Testekill]

I've seen enough, we need to bring Khamis into the seniors.

 

[Virgin Dog]

Pretty sure they credited one of our behinds to Essendon. Should've been 47-48, but they made it 46-49 instead. Or am I mistaken?

Yep, commentator just confirmed it

[cherrypie]

Would love to know how Buku wasn't even selected as an emergency today. Been our best in the VFL the past two weeks and I'd have him ahead of Schache, JUH and Cordy for that second tall forward role right now

You're right .

 

[gordo2016]

How is JUH going?

Not threatening, well beaten by opponent Thatcher.

 

[NBates]

I've seen enough, we need to bring Khamis into the seniors.

Yes.

 

[Dogsman16]

Buku has to be used as the third tall option next week.

Short turn around so I'd take him off and others who might come in like Crozier.

 

[Testekill]

Looks like we really upped the intensity.

 

[Testekill]

Kellet with a goal as well, nice to get some red time goals for once.

 

[VogonProsthetnic]

Don’t know why sweet gets a bad wrap on here.

With his size he dominates the clearances.

 

[Testekill]

Jones gets legged and then the Bomber has him in a literal front facelock on the ground.

The only thing I can think of is that it’s a role he has likely never played in his life and they wanted him to get a few weeks of consistent form playing that role.

He absolutely needs to be in next week. It’s actually a position of need and something that could make a positive impact into our side rather than promoting mediocre players who at best would be serviceable bottom 6 performers.

 

[Testekill]

Big quarter for us, 36 minute 3rd quarter.

 

[dergert]

Yeah Khamis has to come in for Cordy.

He's looking like a real threat up forward and in the ruck.

 

[Virgin Dog]

Yeah Khamis has to come in for Cordy.

He's looking like a real threat up forward and in the ruck.

His goal sense is insane. Slotting them under pressure from angles that almost none of our forwards would usually hit

 

[Testekill]

Raak needs to work on his awareness.
