Game Day - Elimination Final Essendon Vs Western Bulldogs

Big band of showers crossing Wilson’s Prom and into bass straight. That’s the biggest concern for heavy rain/showers, almost due North aspect, hopefully it misses to the west.

Given the number of people on this site that believe what they do actually influences the way Essendon plays, all I can suggest is;
Get the footy out, turn on the shower, and go and practice your wet weather skills.
Can’t hurt.

With all of these weather posts; one thing is for certain, that should appease most of you, the boys won’t have been languishing on the beach the day before the game

Hotdog is the name I’ve been called from my football days from 30 years ago. Its funny how some people might know you for a long time and never know your real name, as you are simply known by your nick name that sticks your whole life.

I’ll predict waterman will have a significant influence with his straight kicking, and Caldwell to have a blinder.

I had to stop watching the '89 game because it was just too frustrating.
Pretty amazing game though, and showed that big men can be important in the wet.

Weather watch anyone?

Very nervous about this game. We’ll have to play at our best to win.

Whatever it is, I think the way the team has been playing the last month or so gives me confidence we won’t get blown away and will keep trying till the very end.

If we can stay close, we are a good chance to overrun them in the end.
