Preview Round 12: Essendon Bombers vs The Gold Campaigners* - Thirsty People Stadium - Sunday 2nd June - 4:00pm

Rowell is currently averaging 9 tackles a game. i hope the umpiring isn't the same as the hawks game.

He also holds onto the ball too long. Double edged sword!

Actually liking the new interpretation. Game is quicker and players have to make a decision quickly and not just clog up the game.

I am glad all our money is being spent in the footy department and not on n promotions

Excellent point actually!

mspaint away Essendon!

The concern for me is the centre square. We've gone from being a great team to one that's had it's pants pulled down over the past month in the middle of the ground. I would have a lot of comfort for this game if we see us winning more centre clearances.

This is basically the key to our season.

Our back 6 now looks amazing. Our team defense is working really well. Our forwards are finally achieving separation and we seem to have lots of avenues to score. We are mentally strong enough to grind out whole games.

If we can get our contested game back, including centre bounce, we’re a top 4 team. If we can’t we are coming very quickly back to the pack.

He also holds onto the ball and drops it when tackled more than anyone else.

If the rule is umpirer like the last few games and he does not adjust he should get pinged a bunch.

kick more goals than pacific fair and the game is ours,
simple math, nothing more!

12.13 to 13.4 - less goals wins. I'll just settle for a bigger score at the final siren

 

[jannissary]

no changes to the side yet.

could be some devious mind games from brad at play here

Totally agree. It's been an emerging theme since the GWS game.

Game Day - Round 12 - Gold Coast v Essendon, Sunday 2/6/24, People First Stadium, 4.00pm AEST

GOLD COAST **** Carlton. It took until the fourth quarter to put them to bed, but ultimately the Blues came away with the victory at Marvel. Mac Andrew is a hell of a player. Despite conceding four goals to Charlie Curnow, he looks like he's going to be a seriously exciting prospect to watch...
