Review Round 6 - GWS Giants vs Essendon

[Ambrosia]

Not sure I would worry about choking up the game. This year is entirely development for your list the scoreboard should be a secondary focus that will eventually take care of itself

True ......but developing the ablility to kill a game or at least slow it down is a skill we need to learn so what better time to practice it. Keeping games like this from getting into the record books can be seen a a small victory IMO.

So if I read and saw properly this week we were out training at Windy Hill. The traditional home ground for a hundred years of our opponent this weekend. But it didn't matter because they are somewhere out at Tullamarine training at their new oval.

Why are we copping s**t for staying in Western Sydney?

Blacktown to Hombush is at least still Western Sydney. Why is Mcgarnagle and ilk letting Essendon get off with totally abandoning their base, walking away from their foundation and encroaching on someone else's territory? What does Essendon have to do with Essendon any more? IT'S A DISGRACE AND AN OUTRAGE I TELL YA!!!

Hahaha fair post given the s**t you guys cop. I was interested too that your guys trained at Windy Hill. I think the Sheedy/Hird thing would have played a part in that.

Heading into the game soon. Looking forward to seeing the Giants in person. I reckon your boys will put in a good effort. Like someone else said, we've got to enjoy the wins against your mob while we can!

Our head says the same thing, but it can still be a bit soul-destroying all the same.

Dear friends

let us hope the dons are a bit off their game today - we have zero height - we have been patchy even against weaker sides - this could turn into a horrible mess if the dons show up and we don't.

Kennedy out, Bugg in.

And Williams the sub

 

[Badesumofu]

Go Giants! I am enjoying this so far.

 

[lionshine]

Carn the Giants!!!!

 

[dlanod]

Nice start, I must say.

Essendon definitely not playing with the same urgency they have in previous weeks.

 

[Bogan Juniors]

hampton 2 kicks. 2 f.... ups, some things nevers change

 

[yarran13]

Come on Giants. Upset of all time please!

 

[Scully2Folau]

Yet again I'm getting 'cannot load video' on my iPhone. ******* AFL and ******* Telstra. I'm sure it's been a great first quarter to watch.

 

[Bogan Juniors]

Scully goal...this is good

 

[dlanod]

Bahahahah this is awesome.

 

[lionshine]

Giants making the most of their opportunities Screw Essendon!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[OrangeDuck]

Been very good in this first quarter. Need to use the confidence from it to continue through the next three quarters all the way.

 

[Harris Specter]

Always good to watch the underdogs come up in games like this. Keep it up Giants!

 

[Bogan Juniors]

better than expected at quarter time would be an understatement.....i need a drink

 

[Ichabod Noodle]

Who'd a thunk that?

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Go Giants!!!!!

 

[Ellie Aquitaine]

Came home about 10 minutes in - we're in front.

Quarter time - we're still in front.

Don't wake me with reality, please

 

[OrangeDuck]

Mohr is playing very well for mine so far. Hope he can keep it up (even though my DT opponent has Mohr and I don't )

 

[Ichabod Noodle]

See what pressure does?
