Oppo Camp Round 7 vs West Coast - The Banter Thread

Remove this Banner Ad

For all Essendon and West Coast supporters to speak openly about all things relating to the game or each other's clubs.

You'd all know the drill, but just as a reminder:

Cards are held back here. Say what you wish, though of course outright or mindless abuse isn't really encouraged.

Ideally it won't turn into a Bay 13 type thread, but these things happen.

Shoot!
 
Looking forward to it guys, expecting that your pace and run will probably do us in. Fingers crossed Naita gets up, because I've been looking forward to him up against Ryder all season.

If this one is as tough and intense as the last time we met at Etihad, it'll be one of the games of the year :thumbsu:
 
Yeah part of me hopes that NicNat comes up, too.

He's always destroyed us, but Ryder hasn't been in the form he's had in 2012 previously.

IF Paddy gets close to 50% ruck time, these two going at it would be amazing.

I'm more excited for this game than I was ANZAC Day. It's going to be huge!

To me Ryder has been one of the most improved players in the league this season, and is one of the only ruckmen that could match Naita for athleticism. Would be amazing to watch!
 
Time seems to be standing still while i wait for this game!!!!

Going across from Adelaide on Friday with a best mate who is a Bombers man. I lived in Melbourne from 1990-1999 and went to all the West Coast games. I was there when Sheedy started the jacket waving, when Salmon repeated the last minute heroics the next year (or was it the one after?), when peter matera was swung forward and kicked 7 at the G'. The 42 point start we gave you at the dome only to come back and lose by a point and then the 07 debacle when we flew out of the blocks only for Juddy's groins to go twang and Hird going bananas in the last quarter. People were literally dancing in the isles at the final siren and I had to grin and bear it :mad:

Both teams up and about again but with injury concerns and for me this is the biggest rivalry we have in the AFL. Respect on both sides but fierce and absolutely uncompromising. I just hope that this time I am the one waving my jacket when the siren blows.

Eagles by 1 point.

Roll on Saturday night!!!!
 
the Weagles are a bunch of cheating scum who always dive for free kicks...
 
Are Eagles fans still offended that Heppell won the Rising Star last year? Dyson is a big game player, should have a field day this weekend. :D

It was the driving force behind our win on the weekend. At half time Woosha brought all the boys in close and pointed to the board, on which he had attached a picture of Luke Shuey in tears. "Do we want to be losers again...to feel as s**t as we did at the Rising Star Awards last year, boys!? Do we!?"

It drives us on to be a better team. :thumbsu:

Your prayers may be answered and Hams gets a week from the MRP. He is by far the best/worst at it, helped by the fact he's a midget.

Anyway hopefully both teams get most of the players listed as "test" for injuries back. Should be a really interesting game.

Scary story?
A mate, when he was working at a certain casino, once spotted a certain youngster literally crying on his coach's well-tanned shoulder, after running second in the F/S award.

Anyhow West Coast will get rolled by the umpires this week. The fuss will make the umpires hyper vigilant as well as the rabid Essendon crowd. This time Drebin will be on our side:

Nic Nat wont be allowed to throw the ball once!! ..... let alone seven times!!
 
looking forward to resuming hostilities with a certain blonde west coast supporting chick. lost her number on the train tide home. not only did we take home the points but we take their women also.
Of course you lost it ;) Maybe you should try putting it in your phone ?
 
People need to sort this out:

Diving
Ducking
Dropping the Knees

They are all very different things please decide which one it is that we supposedly do.

Well, I heard that this guy was brought in by the Eagles to help improve themselves in those areas
