However, Nankervis is now out for Richmond and Astbury still isnāt available. Nor is Lambert.

Essendon can never have nice things
Well at least that kind of evens it up a bit.
Must say Iām disappointed the game isnāt being played at the MCG. My seats are right near the benches and I was looking forward to making lots of āhouse on fireā jokes at vlaustin

Richmond have great depth and we look to have been covering Hurley, Shiel, Caldwell, Draper just fine thus far.
Fair game
I know Richmond had a lot more inside 50s last year but in my mind their knowledge played some part in us only losing to them by 2 goals when we were trash and they were premiers
2 dubious goals for them too so couldāve been even closer

Nank is huge for them. Brings the heat physically and protects his midfielders. Thatās a big loss for them.
Hope Lav gets up.

It was kind of funny on the Richmond BF board.
They were all laughing and calling us ādruggiesā and then the news about Nankervis was released and the meltdowns happened.

Big void with snell out.
Put ham in and tell him we only care about his tackle count.

I think the week before we play, Dimma just watches his Essendon coaching presentation that didnāt work.

āPersonal issueā
I would rather them have every star at their disposal. Would just make the win that much sweeter.

Nankervis and Astbury are huge, significant outs. Our outs are not trivial either. Which ever team can cover their outs better, will win.
Not so much a rumour at this point.
Brooke Cotchin posted an Instagram story. One of their kids is in hospital.
That isnāt good. Hope the kid is okay.

So do I.
Being interstate during lockdown and having your kid in hospital. Bloody horrible.
