Game Day Round 11 - Richmond v Essendon, Dreamtime at the G, Saturday 25/5/24, 7.40pm AEST

[MightyDon]

Down 15 in clearances, 12 - 6 at center bounce the hell is going on?

 

[Call Me Cake]

getting killed in the ruck again, like last week, like vs port.

need to play bryan soon

We're playing a C team

There is no grounds for speaking on who we should be "having instead"

This outcome is entirely on us and us only

 

[Andronicus]

Way too close.

 

[yodellinhank]

Nice Langforward

He looks at home there, doesn't he. I wonder if we should move him up to a wing to cover Cox and bring in Harry Jones?

 

[TheUnicorn]

Goldstein really needs a rest, Byran has to play next week. But that still doesn’t explain how poorly our mids been the last 2 weeks! Parish and Setterfield still at least a couple weeks away too…. two very good midfields coming up in Carlton and Gold Coast

 

[Petrify]

Perkins playing full time midfield of course we're getting spanked again there. It's the reason we got spanked last week there too. LDU destroyed him

Ok we're playing a c team that's fielding their a ruckman who is murdering our ruckman. I don't see your point here

 

[NoWuckingFurries]

I can just see us being saved by a Goldstein run down tackle on bolton in the last 5 seconds

The game is that silly

 

[Don_Gia]

We aren't that good yet man, just enjoy the ride of what has been a good start to the year. Don't expect premiership standard football from us

Not so long ago we were the smashees not the smashers…

 

[The Donners]

need to play bryan soon

Not sure Bryan is the whole answer.

 

[Its Manbearpig]

Need Bryan in to free up Wright to play pure forward. He rarely plays a good game when he's spending so much time in the ruck.

 

[revival_mode]

Cut that selfish s**t out gresh or get out

Was like that at the saints

 

[YEMOC NAYR]

If our midfield gets beaten, we look like bottom 6 team.

 

[Call Me Cake]

Ok we're playing a c team that's fielding their a ruckman who is murdering our ruckman. I don't see your point here

Point is it shouldn't matter since the rest of the team is depleted and we should be accounting for them everywhere else. Their one ruckman shouldn't be atoning for 80% of the depleted sections of their ground

 

[Aussie Assault]

He looks at home there, doesn't he. I wonder if we should move him up to a wing to cover Cox and bring in Harry Jones?

Why stuff with something that’s working?

 

[andleanback]

Perkins barely played on ldu last week

 

[Happyskeret]

Not against dunny brush getting a go in the ones. He’s been knocking the absolute door down.

 

[Mootsy]

Down 15 in clearances, 12 - 6 at center bounce the hell is going on?

If we don’t turn that around we lose.

 

[fishardansin]

Just in case you're not sure where we're at, tonight should tell you.

 

[JayJ20]

Such peak Essendon. Destroy sides like Collingwood and Sydney in the midfield and then get smashed in the middle by North and Richmond.

doesn’t matter who we’re versing, what we’ve served up is shit, simple as

 

[the PILL]

Down 15 in clearances, 12 - 6 at center bounce the hell is going on?

Fair bit of Goldy column a, lil bit Durham dodgy ankle column b, Caldwell , Merrett

 

[Petrify]

Perkins barely played on ldu last week

What? He was literally going h2h with him

 

[Mootsy]

Just keep it simple.

Kick, mark, goal.

 

[Happyskeret]

He looks at home there, doesn't he. I wonder if we should move him up to a wing to cover Cox and bring in Harry Jones?

No put Jones on the wing I reckon.
