Round 8 Essendon v Footscray @ Whitten Oval, 7pm Friday 9 June 2017

Fan numbers even, maybe slightly our way.

Niggly stuff is ongoing.

Franga marks in defence, hit a tad late and heavy.

McNeice doing well: to Redman to Smack!

In range but decent angle to overcome: across the face.

41-51 we trail

Ridley unenthusiastically over-commits, ultimately allows his man to set up a… miss!

41-52

Redman taking some good marks this quarter. Confidence back?

Was piggy-in-the-middle. Lucky they missed the resulting easy shot.

Redman forces an on-the-full, almost takes specky when that kick comes forward.

Draper snap point.

Jackson mark at 45.

There’s one thing Jackson can do… kick!

GOAL.

Bullshit.

Great tap on the ground by Smack to set up goal, called taking the legs. Bullshit.
