The Wednesday Anzac Day game farked us for weeks this year⌠it seemed like we took ages to recover, so itâs good that the next few years we will avoid that kind of problem with our fixture.
Gee, some of our competitors might be severely p1ssed off with us. This could also be the year that we get a fair go from the umpires. The AFL is counting on us big time folks, to bring home the bacon at the gate. Our 2019 games schedule could really be our welcome back pressie from the AFL, and, of course, also for the AFL, kerchunk!
Wait for a bit of back lash from those who hate us with a vengeance. Back to being hated again for all the right reasons, here we go bring it on. Go, go Bombers.
Not really fussed about who we play, and where.
If weâre good enough etc etc.
Am peeved at the two opening stretches of consecutive six day breaks though. One of these is fair enough, but two with only one breather is going to be tough. Weâre likely to really need our depth to get through this and play at anything like our best.
Agreed, but donât forget those other classic rivals- Redface and the Chokers; the Essendon Pension Plans; Sheedyâs Juniors; the Mt Alexander Rd Sharps and the Derek Kickett Landing Grounds.
not really. Each time we have played them over the last few years we have been coming off an anzac day clash. I have no doubt we will come out of the blocks much better this year. If we stay healthy we will beat them.
We are also playing a completely different style now then we were when we last faced them
Doesnât matter. Theyâre still a very good team and theyâll more than likely be better than any time weâve played them in the last few years.
Weâll be a good chance to beat if we play like we should. It sounds to me like youâre underrating Melbourne.
Iâm confident weâll beat most teams. But the top 5 will be us, Melbourne, West Coast, Richmond and Collingwood. All of those teams will be very hard to beat on any given day regardless of how well we are going. If we can win half the games against those sides, weâre in good shape.
I donât understand why they donât use the bye week for us, filth, tigers and Dees the week after or before anzac day. Then the teams swap and play each other when the bye weeks roll around later in the year when the other teams in the comp are resting.
