Match review vs racists, junkies, match fixers and maggots - 2020 round 5

Are they modelled on Sidebottom’s appendage when he was found half nude on a winter’s morning?

Geez, ya can’t please everyone.

Towner got wounded and patched up about 6 times in that game. I don’t care about his numbers, the guy is hard as a cats head.

Fox still talking about Collingwood

David King’s face looks too small for his head.

Zaka 2 disposals and 1 goal

Should be dropped for Merret I’ll be upset if Hibberd gets dropped

Credit to Laverde and Smack for maintaining some semblance of a forward structure

And credit to the other forwards for applying huge forward pressure

Hard not to be everywhere when the commentators think everyone is you.

But yes, great game.

Was it just the way the game panned out our tonight or did we straighten up bit without Zerret? A lot of forward momentum from scrimmages which is not what you always see with Zac. He tends to play behind the contest a bit and push us sideways.
I liked the all in push it forward approach tonight.

Love Ridley and Redman
Bring in the Irish flash and we will be as mean as cat pizz down back!!!
Without doubt though a competitive ruckman transforms everything.
Phillips was great.
And he said it’s his time to be the no 1 ruckman at Essendon.!!! Love it!!!

Hell yeah… a win over Collingwood is always welcome anytime of the year, whether it’s a 10 goal or 1 pt win. Tonight’s win is even sweeter coz we did it even with the bloody umpires trying to steal it from us.

Phillips was outstanding, truly a breath of fresh air in the ruck we haven’t had since Ryder left us. He’s gotta stay in for the rest of the season.

Next we have to drop Zaka.

Tough, resilient and prepared to work hard throughout the entire game
Not often in recent times can we say that about bombers
Lots of winners- Shiel great, Philips a great competitor. Stringer, McGrath, Hooker, Tipper after half time, Ridley, Snelling. Great to see Ham move forward. Hurley good
Don’t bring Belly back
Great win

I was just thinking that.

Merrett will come back next week. Seems harsh to drop Hibberd or Ham.

Logically, it should be Zaka. But that won’t happen.

Absolutely rapt with this win!! And now, an enjoyable weekend of footy knowing we’re on the winners list.
