Our unpredictability could be an advantage. Equally, we could get done. HARD.
Been a pretty Essington 3 weeks for him. Poxy game, good game, out with a bug.
They might let him go free-ranging and then have an extra on the defensive side to intercept, Gleeson would make the most sense.
Some should be happy - Hartleyās got a game at last. It does look a bit threadbare but letās hope for the best. Obviously Raz has been carrying something for a while and a rest will (I hope) do him good. Iām a bit surprised about Lav, though. Go Bombers!
Wonāt happen but hopefully Hartley plays ruck to maintain our structures forward and back.
It will be a big concern having two primarily defensive players in Hartley and Ambrose down back especially considering how much trouble we already have exiting our defensive half at times.
RAZ has been sore since he busted his hip against the Hawks
With Zac illā¦ we didnāt have a choice
As I put in previous thread; whoās up for closest to the pin for how many ruck infringements smack gives away.
Iāll start, 5
make it a drinking game
Drink twice if the ruck infringement wasnāt there and ump has made a ā ā ā ā of themselves
ha - no one here will make it through to half time
Drink three times if Smack is actually the one infringed but the free is paid against him.
The umps have been looking after us recently.
Friday night footy and they will be trying to keep us in the game.
Letās hope Smack is the death of Reilly.
Iād rather they just umpire properly.
If they canāt do that, then yeah they might as well keep us in the game
Fkg yikes
Can only assume our ruckman is Snelling sitting on Hartleyās shoulders, wearing a big overcoat and a fake moustache
Surely weāre past the bad old days of wanting to lynch poor Gleeson.
Free kicks:
Essendon 13
Adelaide 175
McKernan FF 0 FA 102
Hartley FF 0 FA 73
Iām open to them favouring us
Can only hope weāve been studying Obriens patterns this week, with the hope of sharking a few. Otherwise we are fuct.
