Game Day Non-Swans Game Day Thread (The Finals)

[caesar88]

Crows have 2 key forwards who can tear a game apart imo, 3 If you believe Tex can still.

I don't know who Tex is.

But I was mainly just using one forward each as an example, as Collingwood won't have one at all. Unless you think McStay is a gun

Ha ha either way I get stuck watching the crows a lot, Rachelle out hurts, but Keays busts a nut, even Curtain can go there, Rankine and Dawson can get forward and score, they have some serious weapons.

TT is just a beast, I’d take Fogarty in our side too.

They can do damage this year

I realise this my well end up with egg on the face but IMO GWS are way shorter in the betting than they should be ($1.06 for the win compared to Essendon's $8.50).

I quote the odds merely to show just what hot favourites GWS are.

Ess have won the last 2 at Docklands v GWS ('24 & '23) and GWS have only won 2 of their last 7 at the venue (both v Carlton).
Sure Ess are banged up, but no Hogan, Taylor, Daniels or Kelly for the Giants.

GWS clearly deserve to be favourites, but I've put my 50c on the Bombers.
And they better win,can't afford eggs.

Will be lucky to be 10000 fans at Marvel. Whoever thought this was a good idea for a prime time slot should be sacked immediately and then shot

You forgot to mention hung, drawn and quartered. Much more satisfying.

Jesus christ himself suffered less than the Essendon Football Club has this year based on the coverage tonight.

Possibly, but then he rose again. No chance Essendon.

 

[kickthething]

Early days but Gresham has fallen off a cliff

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

Probably be 6.0 against us

 

[TheGoatBaron]

Wouldn’t be 20k there looking at the crowd

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

This is hideous viewing

Essendon president with the Mao inspired haircut

McMahon looks awesome dead dead have no idea why we didn’t take a selection in the mid season

Yes having a MSD pick is certainly helping Essendon tonight

 

[robbieando]

Also I don’t see what the fuss with Kako is about. Completely non factor whenever I have watched Essendon yet is hyped up as the second coming.

Thursday night footy has been absolutely putrid.

Try being at the game

Try being at the game

You actually paid and went?

Oh you poor bastard and the other 5,000 people who bothered to turn up.

 

[Kbroome]

Mathematically down to a 1.01% chance of making finals with a win over North Melbourne this weekend.

Was 2.05 before tonights game, just a massive % booster for GWS which will be very very tough to chase down

Oh well we weren’t making it anyway let’s be real

 

[robbieando]

I went, I certainly didn’t pay

 

[Kbroome]

Every 1% is worth about 15 points at the moment. We need to catch up roughly between 15-20 % to catch up to the rest of the 6-9 team range. Thats roughly 225-300 points of margin to catch up

 

[robbieando]

Oh you poor bastard and the other 5,000 people who bothered to turn up.

At least I didn’t go to their game last weekend. It’s clear that the Bombers are a VFL side, and the Giants have hardly got out of second gear.
