St Essington's Day - 25 August 2023

After round 8 2018 we won 10 out of 14. Here’s hoping for a revival…

Still a mathematical chance. Top 4 is most likely shot, will take some effort to make the 8 from here. Even then, we’d probably end up playing interstate and we know how badly that’ll end.

We’ve got interstate away games agains WC, Freo and Adelaide.

Games against Collingwood, Hawthorn, GWS and Richmond.

Our second half of the year is harder I reckon. We’ve totally bottled it by losing to StKilda and Sydney.

I can’t see us winning 10 of 14, especially with this forward line.

Yeah the discussion of this is just down to when it happens.

But until it’s mathematically over…

ITS NEARLY TIME

And we drag it out. If it happens it will be round 20 odd, after being a game or two out of the eight all year.

The sanctity of St Essington must be preserved, as must his thread.

Take it to the lid on thread, heathens!

Did it even happen last year? I thought I only happened on the last Saturday of Round 23 or something

My recollection was it took place either the day before or earlier that day, maybe?

Need to update to 24th August as Bullwinkle pointed out.

Might actually be after it as we are playing first and may need to rely on others teams to lose
