Review thread round 19: Essendon vs Ducks

Jackson Merrett BOG again.
That's how it's done right?

You're a broken record.

Keep talkin' him up.
Even a broken clock is right once a day.

 

That is the most one sided umpiring display I've seen in a long time. Give the swans 5 seconds to get rid of the ball if they're tackled. Anything remotely resembling contact above the nipples called high even if the swans player initiated it. Never call a ball up unless it looks like the Bombers player will clear the ball.
Stanton called out of bounds for playing on.
Boundary Umpire: Did you call play on?
Troy Pannell: No.
Boundary Umpire: So it's out of bounds then?
Troy Pannell: Yep, throw it in.
Unbelievably poor display from the ***** in lime. Won Sydney the game, no doubt about it. Two of their key second half goals from frees plucked from nowhere. Goodes falls over backwards, waves arms around in the air, gift free.
With the exception of our disposal in the first half, excellent performance Bombers.


Most one sided umpiring since the last time we played Sydney.

 

QFT

Grundy molesting Buckets whilst Pannell watched was slightly infuriating

There's a ■■■■■ on SBS apparently

I'm not talking him up at all. You just seem to single him out at every opportunity, its not as though he's the only one to play a poor game.

Hey guys there's a ■■■■■ on SBS right now!

Well that was weird.
Signed, that guy who just batted off to World News report on MH17
Edit: SBS 2
Whoops!
Diary of a Nympho starts at 11pm.
As you were!
#32 right now.

Why oh why bellchambers!@??? Stupid decision in foresight and hindsight

Jerrett needs a stint in the 2’s

Dempsey was off tonight

Bellcho was actually better than he was before the break

Hurls was epic

Heppell couldnt have done much more with all the holding etc

Trav was solid all night

Dell deserves a full game

Zaka was fumbly and messy all night

Jake should have about 25 free kicks paid to him

We did ok considering we had a few out and plenty down

J merrett's had 3 consecutive bad games
who do we have though? dell in? merrett sub?

Honestly, the next time one of their little ■■■■ ■■■■■ in Jack, McGlynn and Parker duck into a tackle, I hope we decapitate them. At least make them earn it.

Both games against this mob this year i have come away thinking that we can win.  hopefully we get a third crack.

they would need to have Pannell out for the entire game for us to have an even money chance

I can't fault their effort. Even in the first. We need to find that extra scrap of composure against teams as good as Sydney to take the next step.

You mean creepy, illegal, disturbing...

Belly obviously didn’t have a great game, but his inclusion was obviously to give Ryder a bit of a break. He has had a huge workload the last few weeks and been sensational, but we’d be stuffed if he burnt out or got injured.

Don’t look at World Movies channel!

I thought Belly was OK
I’ve been willing to give Jackson Merrett some slack but it is time for him to have a rest though now.

One of these journos looked like he was about to sell Longmire a Big Issue.

Ryder was our only multiple goalkicker wasn’t he?

Yeah should’ve pinned him to the ruck all day and had Carlisle on all 6 defenders…
