**** could have done without Sylvia getting crocked

Jono · 03-06-2011, 04:30 AM

Yep, massive pain in the arse.

Spikey · 03-06-2011, 05:16 AM

argh the number of times a ball has just came up short of the boundary and the Dees have been able to play on and bounces that have held up our attack.

but overall not a surprise. same old brainless kicking into the f50.

Jono · 03-06-2011, 05:18 AM

These two teams are unbelievably injury hit. Melbourne moreso but still Essendon are missing a lot, and its clear from the quality of play.

At least Melbourne are having a crack. Instead of a ****ty Friday night match we have a semi-decent Friday night match, which is at least close.

Jono · 03-06-2011, 05:19 AM

Mind you, with Sylvia down and all of Melbourne's injuries (including Davey and Jamar) Essendon don't really have an excuse if they lose. That's arguably Melbourne's three most important players (can argue Moloney as well).

They have Scullgrove back tonight though, pretty massive ins

Spikey · 03-06-2011, 05:27 AM

not really. our problem is we kick it in and just expect forwards to mark it. we don't look when we kick into the 50. And watson, hurley and hocking wouldn't fix that

Spikey · 03-06-2011, 05:28 AM

all that started with a **** mcveigh kick into the 50. jarrah goals. Scully has added 100K to his GWS wage

"Top 4" Essendon should still beat a team without Jamar, Grimes, Davey, Bartram and Sylvia.

Spikey · 03-06-2011, 06:00 AM

We're not top 4, we're nowhere near it and anyone, essendon fan or the media, who has told you that a) knows **** all about our team and b) has been looking at the results and not the game. We've had these problems since the Carlton game and we've shown no attempt to fix them.

Jono · 03-06-2011, 06:03 AM

That was what I was implying. Essendon, though greatly improved, are not top 4. Even with Jobe.

Melbourne stuttering in this last quarter. Can they hold on?

Garry Lyon said pretty unequivocally on SEN during the game that he was staying. Probably more hope than anything he actually knows but I really don't know whether to think it's a done deal or not - probably not.

LOL @ Essendon though. Picked the stupid ****s in that Parmi Plate thingo but I backed Melbourne so I'll take that.

If you closed your eyes and listened to Jobe Watson talk you could easily think that he's Tim.

benchmark00 · 04-06-2011, 01:42 AM

Suns are going to be scary good in 3 years.

superkingdave · 04-06-2011, 03:20 AM

Montagna at the first bounce ffs
