For all the talk about not wanting to be labelled a soft team since the now famous quote against the Kangaroos a few years back the Bombers are still SOFT!!!
They even rival The Ghostbusters would-be destructor.
They proved it against Port on the weekend.
They proved they are vunerable when having to play quality opposition away from their soft and comfy dwellings of the MCG and Colonial stadium.
The excuse was thrown around that they had 1 tough game last week (yet again in Melbourne). Yet isn't every week a tough game... well almost... but last weeks conditions were perfect... not wet and soggy which would drain the players energies... not as physical as some games and rather open and free flowing.
So how was this a tough game???? one wonders!
Yet Port leading into the game had played just about everywhere possible in OZ in the last 5 weeks and clocked up more frequent flyer points then the WHINGING Bombers have so far this millenium (and that is including the Bombers and of season trips).
They had to play Brisbane... in Brisbane, probably the hardest trip in the AFL.
As for the Port v Essendon game... well Essendon proved once again they can't hack the tough stuff. Port knocked the crap out of the Physically and on the score board in the Ansett Cup and did so again on the weekend. And the Bomber players didn't like it, which is why many of their players retaliated giving away unnecessary frees... see Sheedy's comments after the game.
The Bombers players themselves... oh where to start...
well Barnes and Allesio between them couldn't win a Tap even if they were the only ones with tickets in a Tap raffle. Allesio isn't a ruck or a forward and is More-A-Lessio ****.
Hird - has great skills but when things aren't going his way he spends half the time sooking to the umpires... he makes complaining soccer players look like angels. Especially after Wanganeen wrapped him up in a tackle on the out HF flank... Hird just dropped the ball once caught and expected a free... sorry James but dropping the ball isn't a legal disposal and it wont go on your stat sheet.
Lloyd did well to end up with 4 goals from limited opportunities with his dead eye kicking. Well held most of the day the goals he did get were quiet fortudious or from perfect delivery. Still maybe he kicks so wel because his shorts don't get in the way... how can this be possible with shorts so big you ask... well because they're pulled up his butt and almost upto his neck. I mean you almost can't see any of that "Proud" Red and Balck strip. That's probably why the umps love him... because they only see him in almost all white and confuse him for either a fellow umpire or a Marshmello on legs.
18 year Guerra did well to kick 4 against the AFL best defence... could any of these so called superstars stop this undersized kid???
Tredrea and Cornes ripped them apart too... again see above.
Wellman did do well but had too much ground to cover and kept the Bombers in the game early whilst Lloyd was shaving off his bumfluff in the 1st half.
Hardwick should change his name to Softprick so his name will more reflect his team.
Bomber were lucky Dew had an off game... he wont kick 4 points in a game again this year.
Well that is almost all from me, but you may wonder why this attack on the league leaders???
Well it is because they are sooks... seeing how their players reacted to the physical pressure during the game was bad enough but then to read the following in an article on their website takes the cake:
"...
Port Adelaide came out hard in the opening term and was rewarded with a 16-point lead going into the first break. However Port’s approach riled some Essendon players who saw Mark McVeigh, Mark Mercuri then James Hird bear the brunt of some uneccessary Power aggression.
..."
Especially the last line... but for crying out loud guys... if you can't stand the heat then go back to the little VFL pond... you're in the big league now
