You too mate.

Melbourne are better than what their record suggests and it should be a reasonable game if the weather does the right thing.

Let's hope Melbourne don't shut up shop after the first quarter!

 

[Pipefitter]

We have a habit of having heartbreaking losses against you mob, i sense that will happen again today.

 

[cannons]

Good luck Essendon fans

I'm not sure what to expect from Melbourne. Their most prominent attribute is inconsistency at the moment.

 

[WindyHillWatcher]

Not very interesting so far hey. it's like watching a bunch of kids playing kick to kick in the park. get it together boyz

 

[Big Blow Hard]

Showing Melbourne no respect. Not good enough. Thank god Melbourne have sprayed their shots.

Rama is having a shocker. Shame. He will have to be dropped surely after this week unless something changes in the last three qtrs. Is the end Nigh for Rama?

Valenti & Buckley causing some havoc for the Dees so far, hopefully Welsh sticks really tight on Valenti this second quarter so we can really control the match because they have no real other major ball-winners since Jones, McLean & now Bruce are out with injuries.

 

[Blind Blink]

Bruce back on the field.

Lloyd just kicked his 3rd

Bruce, Hamstring? I thought he pulled up short there before.

Bruce, Hamstring? I thought he pulled up short there before.

I think he tweaked his hammy, not sure if he is back on now though.

 

[Colin D'Cops]

Yep, Bruce just got a few touches, he's back on.

 

[Big Blow Hard]

Back on, and sets up a goal.

 

[Blind Blink]

Melbourne infront.

 

[Colin D'Cops]

Not for long.

 

[Blind Blink]

Reimers not doing too well apparently. Monfries just kicked his second.

47-39

EDIT: Lovett just goaled.

53-39.

 

[Colin D'Cops]

Lovett goal.

Hi guys, just watching the game here. Just wondering what are the orange trimmings are on the left armholes on the Essendon jumpers today? They are about the same colour as Reimer's orange boots.

 

[Blind Blink]

For the call to arms cancer thing, I think.

Lloyd's got his 4th already!!! Yehhhh!!!

60-39

I think it's the 'clash for cancer' match or something along those lines TAS.

 

[Tassie27]

Thanks for that, I do remember something being mentioned earlier this week. Also heard Ramanaska's (sp??) name mentioned also. Enjoying the game, sometimes nice when your heart isn't involved.

Where have you guys been lately? Yeah it's the Call to Arms campaign. Last year Essendon wanted both the Melbourne and Essendon players to wear yellow armbands like the black ones to recognise men's cancer but the AFL wouldn't allow it. They ended up incorporating the yellow strip into the jumpers. Have Melbourne got it too this year or just the Bombers?
