Ross Lyon will shut us down with ease next week.
When planning for this game during the week should take him all of 5 minutes to work out how to beat a team that is a one trick pony.
Just like how last night most of us were extremely confident of not rocking up mentally against the bottom of the ladder Swans on their home track…
It is a near certainty that we will come back and beat the Dockers.
Yep… they’re better this year and Ross Lyon has effective plans to strangle the life out of games… but this will be very, very Essendon to win this game at home next week. Nearly as predictable as us failing last night. Sad but true.
Another weekend where we see the top teams for the year getting further and further away and the bottom teams going passed us. Just another year at the EFC
In the last quarter Hooker successfully went the spoil in the fwd 50 and Raz, Tippa got their hands on it. Why can’t this be a legit tactic from the get go? Treat a high f50 entry to a Hooker, TBC as a ruck contest / tap down? Small fwd work is the one area where we excel.
