[JT_the_Man]

I may have blacked out. What just happened?

Peter Wright happened.

Re the umps……that was absolutely going to be HTB against Cox when he got caught after taking a bounce but I swear the ump blew the Whistle before he’d even been tackled! Could not wait to call it!

Maybe they should try to teach Adam Saad to play team defence.

 

[yodellinhank]

Those two Bont HTBs late, wowee, fu**in maggot campaigners really tried to get them across the line hey?

Joey Daniher to kick the goal to beat the eagles in r23 and get us into the 8?

It'll be a point or out on the full, he's no Peter Wright.

 

[JuniorWatch]

They're already calling it the 'Ginger Tsunami'

D Clarke 20 possessions.
A Francis 2 goals, 7 marks.
W Snelling 10 tackles.

 

[TheWeapon]

Centre square combination was unbeliveable, Draper and Wright's best game for the club
Dogs average defense has been shielded by their mids all year, looked very vulnerable against centre square clearances
Hilarious to see the flurry of dodgy free kicks to them at the end

 

[BomberTime]

The way these guys have ****ed us over the years, that was so pleasing to do them.

Huge game from Draper and the forward line is much more mobile without Hooker. Sorry Hooksy.

 

[Gumby2Hurley]

omd that 2019 performance had me worried all week.
Dogs may have missed some gettable shots but we played well regardless.

Stringer in the medal is

 

[ghostdog]

2MP WTF

Draper with a game beyond his years.

Clarke solid too, you'd think he's done enough to get an extension.

Draper > English in the hit outs

 

[boncer34]

Great win.

Last 2 Bont kicks, blaming the umpire is a waste of energy. Source of anyone's frustration is the AFL.

 

[Stopher]

Peter Wright kicks seven goals for us to beat the bulldogs sounds like some bizarre drug induced fever dream and yet here we are.

Pass the blunt, baby.

 

[windyhill]

No offence doggies, but that was a long time coming. The head to head record was starting to get a bit skewed. Eat shit lads.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

Only seven goals last three quarters against top side …sack 3MP!!

Draper was immense …get in!!!

Not only that but that bizarre 5 minutes before half time when the dogs couldn't buy a goal. HERE WE ARE!

 

[boncer34]

Is this some sort of riddle?

Ball was "Knocked out in the tackle."

And one arm tackles like that are "dangerous."

You think the umpires make the rules?

They were bullshit freekicks created by an organisation justifying jobs for boys.

 

[Stopher]

That was such a non-Essendon performance by Essendon.

I'm actually starting to get slightly annoyed at Essington comments now with this team. They are busting out of that shit quick-smart!

 

[joey_jo_jo]

Champion data is cooked, english scored more in SC than draper. In no world was english even close to draper today.

 

[Maddogm]

Te the umps……that was absolutely going to be HTB against Cox when he got caught after taking a bounce but I swear the ump blew the Whistler before he’d even been tackled! Could not wait to call it!

It was called for bouncing during a tackle - despite no one touching him at the time

 

[blitzer]

I'm so proud of the boys today. Everyone did their part and in Wright's case their part and about 2 others as well.

I thought the defense held up pretty well. You can really see the growth in a lot of individuals throughout the year.

I thought the forward line operated pretty well. We didn't have that many forward 50 entries but we made the most of it. Francis's first half was extremely promising before it became the Peter Wright show in the second half.

The real difference was this week our bottom 5-6 players were much better than last week.

Midfield as a unit were pretty good, especially around the centre clearances where we were quite dangerous against possibly the best midfield in the game. Draper really developing a real presence out there and had a great battle with English, probably shading him in the end.

 

[Bulldogs85]

Since I am a good spot and have calmed down congratulations on the win **** I hate to his weekend

DMT is a hell of a drug

 

[Charliebrow 16]

So ****ing proud! Absolutely unreal!

 

[Ati Tude]

I really like Francis as a forward. Wouldnt mind seeing him there once Jones is back too. No room for Hooker now. What Francis does is present and keep doing it and do anything he can to make a contest and bring the ball to ground.
