Matthew ■■■■■■■ Nicholls is umpiring
I must of missed the fkn injury to Jobe? Fk me. Again, he’s had 10 days to recover. If you can’t get up for Anzac Day, uninjured, after a ten day break, we’ll you shouldn’t be playing footy
He will be fine. Il put my house on he plays
Jesus H Christmas. Fk.
We’re ■■■■■■
I’d rest anyone who isn’t fit to play and play everyone else.
Reckon there will only be 1 change, with McKenna suspended.The McNiece upgrade was probably to mess with us, leading to them bringing back Gleeson.
I’d say there is a 99.9% chance Gleeson doesn’t play
In defence of Jobe and Hep, it’s not surprising that they were down against Adelaide. They had 28 disposals (and 10 tackles) and 30 disposals (and 8 tackles) respectively in the slogfest against Carlton. It will take them a while to get used to that sort of physicality.
Most of our better performers against Adelaide were not subject to the same level of punishment against Carlton, either because they are outside players or they just had quieter games. Compare Jobe (28 disposals against Carlton vs 16 against Adelaide) and Hep (30 vs 22) to Zaka (13 vs 30), Colyer (16 vs 24), Walla (8 vs 16), Fanta (9 vs 18) and McGrath (12 vs 28).
Let’s reserve judgement until we see how they go with a 10-day break…
And Margetts
Are there any umpires we like, though?
JUST FARKING WIN.
Yeah you like the umpire you don’t know the names of because they haven’t ■■■■■■ us enough to warrant looking up who the fk was.
Looks like rain guys.
That’s not the point.
MATTHEW FARKING NICHOLLS. WE’RE FARKED
Not really. Dislike some more than others though.
If thats the case only forced changes this week McKenna for McNeice, then rest the old blokes for the following week and bring in some fresh players on a short turn around.
Ie out Watson, Kelly, Stanton, Hurley, Hooker
In Myers Gleeson, Mutch, Hartley, Francis
If you’re not backing in Jobe on Anzac Day you can get stuffed.
It’s completely un-Essendon
I honestly hope he does. I also hope we have our best possible team out there.
