Review Round 10, 2024: Essendon v Box Hill Hawks, 2 June 2024, 1.05pm @ Windy Hill

[The Jet From Poowong]

That quarter was a masterclass

 

[Kuuz]

VFL Bombers “edge” looking as dull as a butter knife.

Oooof no goals to half time.

 

[VandoHawk]

HT. That was a dominant performance. BH: 20.6 66 to Ess: 0.4 4.
Ramsden is taking the piss and is BOG by a mile.
Maginness dominated that quarter playing inside.
DGB great defensively.
Watto is a tier above with what he does, just needs to do it more.
Chad see above.
Let’s hide Remy Maclean please.

 

[KermitJagger]

How are Don's 2nds so bad? They've got Shiel, Weideman, Reid, Setterfield, Hately. All either experienced AFL players, 1st round picks or both.

 

[mac11]

Just tuning in now. How is Ward going?

 

[scout]

Nick Watson's goal

 

[Ka Norkers]

do ya reckon we have enough small forwards?
yesterday, McDonald, Moore, Breust, Ginnivan collectively tore Adelaide a new one, and today, Watson and Wingard look way above VFL level (as expected), with Butler back next season.
It's almost witches hats out there, but good for a lot of blokes confidence.
Why no Phillips or Scaife??

 

[HawksILove]

Maclean looks a talent. Need to hide him

Pick him up at the National Draft if he keeps improving

Whilst Wingard has been good - who do we take out of the seniors ?

This is a good problem to have.

 

[grumbleguts]

Our percentage has risen 10% in a half of football.

Josh Bennetts is going alright, too.

 

[Hawk Vision]

Amazing to think all our fist round picks besides Mackenzie playing in this game….all looking pretty good though

 

[I got the outside word]

Scaife didn’t end up playing?

 

[VandoHawk]

Let’s call that a pass from the Wiz as Wingard kicks his third

 

[VandoHawk]

This quarter hasn’t been as fun as Essendon have been winning more of it. Cavarra gets a high free and kicks his first.

 

[Kanga Commando]

Scaife didn’t end up playing?

nope - late withdrawal along with ethan phillips

 

[Slaatybaadfaast]

Just tuning in now. How is Ward going?

Not bad. Although Hustwaite looks the goods in midfield. Beautiful distribution

 

[VandoHawk]

Ramsden has been a tier above today

 

[I got the outside word]

nope - late withdrawal along with ethan phillips

Was there a reason given?

 

[Dewnior]

What was that BS 50 for? Huss disposed of that correctly but umpire is blind

 

[VandoHawk]

These new HTB rules are really hurting Hustwaite, he’s been pinged 4 times

 

[Dewyyyyy]

Ward has been awesome

 

[Simon_Nesbit]

The umpires guessed twice, and one was stupid and not HTB even with the new interpretation. Definitely felt like EFC were given the 'encouragement award' frees that quarter.

 

[VandoHawk]

A fairly average quarter where we took the foot off the throat. Very poor skills.

Ramma having a standout game.
Maginness been good but still missing too many easy kicks.
Ward hitting all of his targets.
Morrison doing what you expect.
Chad pushing hard for senior selection.
Wiz has been good, stats don’t reflect some of his good plays.

 

[Kanga Commando]

Was there a reason given?

Not that I saw
