Wonder if Edwards be back?
Heās in isolation. He drove (not flew) up to Sydney and had a headache. He needs to get his Covid test first.

This is a massive game for us if you run the ladder prediction stuff. Win this, and I think we can finish 7th or 8th. Lose, and we could finish 9th or 10th. The old cliched 8 point game IMO.
They have to travel. We donāt. They are starting to lose players to injury, weāre starting to get some back. Their mantra of Humble and Hungry could actually apply more to us than them this season.
We wonāt start favourites with bookies, but I actually think we should be. Weāll win this - and I reckon it will be a pretty comfortable margin in the end - 5 or 6 goals. They werenāt convincing at all against Adelaide - in fact, halfway through the last, the Crows got within 9 points, and I thought they were going to take it.
Changes: None unless there are injuries. Back in the winning team to go again.

I reckon the fact weāve been there for nearly two weeks (by game time) and they get in the day before, has to be to our advantage.
Iām not confident of a win, but Iām confident we will have a crack and not lie down. More than we can say for the last couple of years.

The day before at this stage. If this issue with the positive Victorian case visiting NSW becomes a problem, they made need to fly out quickly.

Mini final. Classic 8 point game.
Looks this way. Hopefully Laverde gets through this week and gets a well earned rest over the bye. Snello isnāt the easiest replacement at the moment. Ham is it though. People asking for Ambrose donāt seem to think about our structure forward?
Really hope itās not Ham in for Snelling. Pressure forward is not exactly Hamās MO given heās made 3 tackles in 3 weeks prior to becoming sub.

Ambrose can slot in down back, push Redman up on the wing.
Donāt tell me Redman couldnāt do it.

Neutral fans in wa will support us. They all want the underdog to win. It will 100% feel like an Essendon home game.
