EXHIBITION MATCH:ALLSTARS vs ESSENDON, MARRARA

[BigLance]

How is Joey Anderson and Eddie Betts doing ???

 

[Captain_Brown_7]

Kraks has been pretty good, looked lively up forward, despite generally being outnumbered in that area of the ground.

Tambling on the other hand has been pretty quiet, and had a couple of fumbles.

Are there any other Tigers playing?

Nah, just those two. Thanks heaps macca

Nice to see Krak doing ok, but Tambling suprises me. Has been solid all pre-season, so to hear he has been quiet is not too good.

2nd goal for McLeod

AST 5.3.33
ESS 7.4.46

 

[BigLance]

Nah, just those two. Thanks heaps macca

Sorry to hurt your feelings, but I think thats the type of player he is. Brilliant one game, quiet the next....

How is Joey Anderson and Eddie Betts doing ???

eddie has barely been sighted, except for (i think) setting up a mcleod goal.

joey has been getting into a bit more in the 3rd quarter.

 

[Mr Eagle]

All-Stars jumper is looking like a cross-breed of Freo's anchor and the uniform worn by the staff at my local Athlete's Foot... yet for some reason I like it.

 

[stmookeyj]

3rd to Lucas

AST 5.3.33
ESS 8.4.52

 

[macca69]

Wouldn't read too much into it, plenty of players played out of position and the All stars structure is all wrong.

 

[stmookeyj]

Jimmy Hird goals. Bombers have a handy break

AST 5.3.33
ESS 9.4.58

 

[Gift]

Are there any young players or people who we wouldnt expect that are on fire?

 

[macca69]

Betts has been good, as you said very classy assist to McLoed.

Anderson has looked very nervous to me, which is understandable.

We'll talk about that come round 1 shall we!?!?!

Like Macca has just said, no point reading too much into it.

Don't worry about Tambling mate.... he'll prove a lot of people wrong this season, including your good self!

 

[macca69]

Are there any young players or people who we wouldnt expect that are on fire?

Alwyn Davey would be my pick. Lonergan has been okay too.

 

[GPW1]

can anyone confirm- is #41 for the bombers houli or chartres???

 

[neddy36]

You're 100% correct Pykie, commentators have no idea.

Quite possibly the worst commentary performance I have witnessed for an AFL sanctioned game.

I swear it takes the head commentator 5 seconds to identify the player with the ball sometimes. Either has really poor eye sight or he is matching numbers on the ground with the record in front of him. At this level he should know all the players by sight, including the rookies. Called Lucas, Lloyd (who isn't playing).

Can you believe they are getting paid good money to do a half arse job?

 

[macca69]

can anyone confirm- is #41 for the bombers houli or chartres???

Houli, no doubt at all

 

[stmookeyj]

Stanton goal, idiots on Essendon site said Monfries

3 QUARTER TIME

ALLSTARS 5.6.36
ESSENDON 10.6.66

ESS: Lucas 3, Johns 2, Monfries, Houli, Jetta, Hird, Stanton

 

[Total Power]

How's Danyle Pearce going?

 

[richcogs]

Yea no Tambling has been pretty disapointing really, his disposal has as not been so good. And hasn't got into the right positions. Average at best!

 

[macca69]

How's Danyle Pearce going?

Has been ok, nothing special IMO.

FWIW P. Burgoyne BOG for the All-stars and S. Burgoyne virtually unsighted playing deep forward. Motlop been okay as well.

 

[stmookeyj]

2nd goal for Hird

AST 5.7.37
ESS 11.7.73

 

[stmookeyj]

12th goal for the Bombers...3rd to Johns

AST 5.7.37
ESS 12.7.79

 

[macca69]

Houli keeps getting better as the game goes on. Steal at pick 40odd

 

[stmookeyj]

4th to Lucas, and Alwyn Davey extends the Bomber lead
