Preview Round 3: Essendon vs St Kilda, Marvel Stadium, Saturday 30/03/24 @ 4:20 PM

Unpopular opinion perhaps but if the option is play Tsatas on a wing at AFL level or in the midfield at VFL level I’d rather him in the VFL grinding out clearances and working his tail off defensively.

He’s not a wingman.

Hi guys.

I hope it’s okay that I’m posting here.

Struggling to find x2 tickets to the game this week for my little man and myself. Does anyone have any tickets they won’t be using / have up for sale?

Please PM me if anything is availible.

Good luck tomorrow!

Cheers.

Rang the club a few days ago to find out what the go was and they said there will be GA seats available on the day, FWIW. For us with a Saints 16 game membership for instance they said we could just scan our ticket on the day at the gate.

Butts will likely be very underdone, like Sinclair was last week. Missed basically the whole preseason and had just 7 disposals in the VFL last week, in his first hitout of any kind 6 months. Ideally would be in the VFL for another week or two.



It’s actually 7 if you include Caminiti (who was just 19yo last season- he’s only 3 months older than Cadman), but to be fair, a lot of that is due to unavailability.

We’re at the stage where the only ones we have available to bring in now are old man Tom Campbell (who is break glass in case of emergency for Marshall), or a whole lot of kids, who have played one game between them.

Everyone other than Campbell who’s played more than 1 AFL game is either in the team this week, or unavailable for senior selection.

Hoping it’s a good game (for us ) and no injuries to either team.

As an added bonus it would also be good to exit the game without any bookings at the MRO for a change

Well you are almost correct. Jack Hayes 6 games, who was out for all but 1 game last season, but then got injured again during the pre-season, is playing his first game of any type this weekend when he lines up for Sandringham. So is also technically available, though he will probably only play manged gametime.

So yes selection this week was basically if you can stand, you're in! But none the less it is good to see so many youngsters playing.

Sorry everyone, we’re winning this one

Sydney are guns. We were genuinely awesome around the contest last week.

Reckon we have another level. Bombers by 25.

 

[windyhill]

Rub it right in Gresh.

 

[Bombers36]

Gresham and Hind to go berserk against their old club...!!

 

[andleanback]

Saints running power is really going to hurt us. We need to dominant out of the middle if we are going to have any chance in this game. And we will need a huge game from McKay down back.

 

[jdBombers3598]

Very disappointing that we're not playing this at the G, seeing as it's available

 

[MisitisGoal]

In the movie in my head, Harry Jones wakes up from his recurring nightmare of ball dropping short, runs outside in his jocks and kicks a dozen massive torps over the town hall clock - answers call from Brad who says he's a late inclusion. He kicks four and plays the next 50 games straight.

 

[Ati Tude]

Really hoping we win clearances to show it hasn't been a fluke and put in a very competitive performance. And show some kind of transition defence effort.

Fever dream?

 

[NoWuckingFurries]

Usual season would have us play the most frustrating game to eventually lose by 5 goals.

Please just kick away from the 3 minute mark and win by 15 goals.

Please. I've done my bloody time LOL

Blitz rumours still saying Jones is in for Setterfield.

Wouldn’t be surprised jones was part of the captains run yesterday. They wouldn’t play him as an unused hold over 2 weeks in a row
We love a late change

Game Day - Round 3 - Essendon v St Kilda, Marvel Stadium, Saturday 30/3/24, 4.20pm AEDST

ESSENDON Once again, a somewhat promising performance was overshadowed by a piss-weak club decision to not even bother backing the player going hard at the ball. I know there's a video explaining our legal standpoint, blah blah blah, boring. Two-Metre-Peter will be sitting out the next month...
