Both clubs really couldn’t be more evenly matched before this game.
And before some gloomer smartarse points out we’ve only narrowly beaten North & WCE, the Giants have lost this year to WCE.

Setterfield in for Kelly is the only change I would make. Stay with the youth!

Bedford and Daniels will be back for this one.
Both more than handy/experienced players but Daniels is particularly important for them.
Hopefully we can get some of our better players back for this one too…
Callaghan also it seems. Played 18 games this year

If he’s given the task of doing that and nothing else I think he can do it.

I’d like to get our big bodied hardnuts all in but not lose too much speed.
So in Draper, Caldwell, Settlefield
Out Phillips, Kelly/Hepp, Baldwin/Cox

setterfield’s one vfl game wasn’t bust the door down pick me in the 1s.
i think he’s back up only until he plays a string of games & that won’t happen this year.

And have fallen across the line twice against hawthorn.
People got so carried away with their 7 wins without acknowledging how close/lucky some of the wins were.

GWS social media game is absolutely elite.
They’ve passed us on that front for sure.

I wonder if the Essendon management have given any thought to maybe hiring a few buses and reaching out to any members or supporters about going up to Sydney to try and make it a pro Essendon crowd seeing there aren’t many GWS fans at there games.
Absolutely.
But you are forgetting the convenient imaginary gloomer cut off point for the season on here.
Only the results that prove their point can be considered relevant. Games like our wins against Melbourne and Carlton, for example, don’t count because we won and it’s so long ago. Yet any game we lost (or should have won by more) can be used at any time.

Why not Walla himself!!!
Anyone actually going up to Sydney for the game ?
I’d go with these apart from Setterfield who might need another week and be aimed for the Pies game.
The other change that might be worth doing is swap Snello for Tippa as sub. AMT is made for these scenarios now and him coming on late in the 3rd to hammer our i50s in and kick a goal ot two … Well,I for one would go nuts if he got us over the line.
Whether we make it into the 8 or not, we need something to cheer this second half of a wobbly old season. And a Tippa cameo would be just that for me.
