I reckon Hampson will be at his best when they get Maric back, allowing him to be more fwd
I think they can. Griffiths CHF, Jack FF, Hampson/Maric FP. It will particularly help Ivan get back early on to spend significant time forwardtheres been a fair bit of debate about that on our board. Can they work together? Can he function as a forward better than Vickery (yes I know he's had a horrid year, but Hampsons main strength has been in ruck, not up forward)?
Different names, but a very similar debate to what you guys were having in recent years re: your talls
I suggest spending the weekend in a drunken stupor.

It's Hampson or Vickery, on form you'd pick the Hampster, but Vickery really should be able to hold down that 2nd ruck spot
This is one of my favorite games of the year. The atmosphere is always electric at this game.
It's generally a pretty good game too with both sides getting up for it, although last year we didn't really come to play.
Not sure how fit and healthy the Bombers are but we might be a little underdone. Jackson could miss or play restricted which means we might be bringing in a club débutant in Miles. I would prefer Arnot come in for his tackling pressure.
The
There's no guy called Walls on our main nor rookie list, so must be one of the VFL listed players. Haven't heard of him to be honest but I don't watch the VFL.I saw Arnott on the ABC match of the day yesterday. He won a massive hard ball and set up a goal with it. Absolutely spectacular hardball stuff. The commentator mentioned how it was Sydneyesqe .... might want to offer him a good contract as I imagine a few other clubs would like him on their list now that he's learning how to use his body. He just seems to have zero confidence at the top level. That can be fixed though if a coach puts some belief into him.
Also noticed a tall back for you blokes, Walls. Skinny as shit but very tall and quite quick, though he did seem to slow down a lot towards the end of the game. Despite his skinny frame he was so hard in the contest on the ground and in the air. Is he on your main list?

You can guess which side Eth falls on when it comes to our tall debateI think they can. Griffiths CHF, Jack FF, Hampson/Maric FP. It will particularly help Ivan get back early on to spend significant time forward
Really looking forward to this game also, hopefully we start to move the ball quicker and get more run and carry into game style and turn the corner this year.This is one of my favorite games of the year. The atmosphere is always electric at this game.

juss is correct, he's one of our VFL listed kids
Send Hocking to him. Deledio is very susceptable to a tag
We're basing our Essendon board catch up around it.BTW just a reminder that the VFL is on at 2pm at Punt Road too
If you have the time, definitely come in early, watch the VFL, then walk over to the G for some tucker and the main show
Only caution is it is touch and go whether the stand will be open. If its not, crowd is capped at 2300, so get in early (they had to shut the gate at before half time for the Box Hill game)
If you missed the preseason game there, every report Ive read (from home and away fans) love it being as close to a curtain raiser as we are gunna get
he's 27 so hardly a kid a former state representative and captain of the Scorpions too

VFL to London to MCG!
Should join us, mate.
Cotch has been out of form because of that ankle injury. Wouldn't be surprised if he hasn't recovered fully by the Dreamtime game.Would you send someone to Cotchin or go head:head with Watson/Goddard/Myers?
