AFL Toast WIN against West Coast! - Rd 14 2018

[Mootsy]

Anyone else see Ben Howlett not get acknowledged by BT after the game?

Brian was just focussed on current essendon players, no big deal.

 

[fanuch]

Haven't seen a 1st qtr like that from Essendon, since........... I don't know when [/Q

The Scott McLaren is a disgrace game

 

[FD2646]

Well done and thank you.

Sincerely,

All freo fans!

 

[Beerfish]

The bad: I should have gone to the game

Went to the wrong ****ing game.

 

[Sooper]

Was also posted on here that his sister works for the club too. No idea on truth of it though.

Farcical really if all these rumours about him are true. Another sweep under the carpet type job from the AFL coming up I'm sure.

 

[electricfeel]

I've had such a bad week at work. Thank you for cheering me up!!!!! Enjoy guys.

There were 4 umpires not 3

All the more impressive. Surprised they didn't get more frees with the extra ump.

"Well you're sort of contradicting yourself. On one hand you're saying we shouldn't 'presume the outcome' based on a half a season. But then you're saying our 'recent form' (assuming you mean the past four rounds) is slowly improving, giving us a chance.

Not having a go or wanting to rain on your parade or anything, but we'd need to win 7 or 8 out of the remaining 9, with 6 of those remaining games coming against top 8 sides. It's quite simply not going to happen. I'd rather have a realistic outlook, hope to win the games we should win and finish off the year as best we can."
bombreys I think the adult thing to say right now is Nya nya nya nya nya!

My point exactly. Sure we had three crap weeks but we are a totally different line up to 2 years ago. Show some faith yeah

 

[Andronicus]

There is no better win than this.

 

[Towno78]

So how bad was that selection by the coaches?!!

Even DERO is saying Green will be dropped ...

Brian can blow a goat. Twice. Thrice

In the future people will look at that scoreline of 6.16 to 12.8 and assume the Eagles could have won that had they just kicked straight.
How wrong they will be.
Holy hell that was a beatdown, plus easily the biggest waste of an umpiring free ride I've ever witnessed.
The loss we totally didn't need to have. Thanks so much for that

 

[greysong]

Bloody brilliant.

No, there’s soccer to watch now...

I thought you guys looked sluggish early on and it made catching up very difficult.

 

[Its Manbearpig]

The good:
Alot.. we did so much right we looked incredible in that first quarter.
I cant list individual players it would take far too long.

The bad:
The sooner we can push Green, Brown and Myers out.. the better.
All think slow move slow..
The umpiring.. wow.. unfortunately soured the win a little..

Back to some good!
If you'd told me we would win 4 of:
Geelong
GWS (away)
Richmond
Brisbane (away)
West coast (away)
I'd have kicked you in the shin.

You played well, you just couldn’t find the goals. You’ll bounce back.

That’s the best we’ve played all year.

Please don’t do it to jmoo wan

He has been through enough similar incidents.

 

[Rumballs]

Not often you see a team win when they start the game 4 men down.

 

[Jade]

Bellchambers best on by a mile.

Free kick count looks bad. But bloody hell we gave away so many stupid ones. I reckon Myers and Green gave away 5 or 6 dumb ones between them. Add in McKernans couple a game and baguley gave away a couple aswell. If it was a close game you lose because of those.

I wish we were that kissed on the dick

Just once

Woosha talking about how happy he is with Langers development

Green gave away some absolute stinkers.

 

[Mootsy]

Happy to see Myers take the game on to be honest.

Mckernan was great as well.
