Two wins in two days against the Pies? Get down to Vic Park on Sunday Bomber fans.
Seriously, it’s the easiest ground to get to in the city (outside MCG and Etihad) public transport wise. Pack the place - there are no fences anymore!
Essendon VFL has announced the squad set to take on Collingwood this Sunday at Victoria Park.
Fans are encouraged to go and support the boys who sit fourth on the ladder after a big win over North Ballarat last Friday night.
The team will be looking to continue their good form in an important game against the Pies.
Coaches will finalise the team by Saturday.

The placements of players in that team is… interesting. Or it’s a specific rotation policy!
Collingwood are 9th on the ladder at 84%, having been thrashed by Casey in round 1 but then responding by beating Port at Port last week.
Ben Crocker is their only player to have more than 2 goals for the season so far.
(We have McKenna and McKernan on 3 from a single game each, and Redman and Grimley on 4.)

What’s the easiest way to get there via public transport via Moonee Ponds on the Craigieburn line? Rather PT so I can drink ■■■■
34 minutes by train, change at Parliament to platform 1.
I wanted to find some non-obvious east-west bus, but the boring answer above is correct.

Excellent that is easy enough. Hopefully a great couple of days. Captains run, VFL and then ANZAC day.
I cant remember much from last year, but given Dempsey is not named does that make him a certain starter in the AFL team?
Yestin Eades watch please?
Redman gonna give Collingwood nightmares.

I’ll keep an eye on him for sure.

Either that or certain emergency you would think.
Redman gonna give Collingwood nightmares.
This is going to go on all year isn’t it?
Apparently strong rumors that even if Clokes elbow is good enough to play that he’s been told he’ll be playing VFL this weekend. Could be a good test for Grima.

Just a walk across the road for me, brilliant!
Post victory (pre anzac) cans at the yarra hotel across the road too!
I heard Humbert is shouting burgers for everyone, not just me.

I’ve been meaning to go back there for ages. Good excuse. Will try to make it there pre-Anzac.
