Game Day Round 15: Wet Toast v Essendon, Domain Stadium, Thurs 30/6/16, 8.10PM AEST

Free kick count should be interesting

 

[eDPS]

Zach Merrett 8 tackles already

 

[Runk]

Can anyone tell me why a team that wears black and red, needs a clash strip against a team wearing blue and yellow?

Because money

10-2. Both of ours have come in our back half.

They shouldn't. I don't like us wearing this against a team with their colour scheme at all.

 

[Eleven 38]

I think the umps have been better towards us than normal, sure they've only given us 2 frees, but west coast only has 10, normally they've had 7-8 frees inside 50 and 6 goals from them by half time

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

1 free to Essendon in a half?

What a joke.

Reds a dark colour - or in other words - no.

Logic doesn't apply when it comes to the AFL hierarchy. A gaze into McGlachlans eyes is likened to fisting your own arse.

 

[Barry Roundhouse]

Will Zaka be in trouble for that punch or?

Tom lynch got a $1500 fine for his, so he better ****ing not be.

 

[duckdog]

Anyone have the stats on how many inside 50's we've been paid this year? Regardless of whether they were there or not I can work my way back

 

[rumply]

10-2. Both of ours have come in our back half.

Hmm, most of theirs were probably there, just not getting the equivalent paid our way

10-2. Both of ours have come in our back half.

Including the one in the last ten seconds - umps had to double our tally before the siren.

It's the ones where Essendon get a string of play and then they pluck one that are frustrating.

 

[Kakkle]

Dare I say it, Bird BOG for us?

 

[Mercurial89]

Holy shit! They are literally showing dea as a listed player......

That one against Zaharakis was ridiculous.

Watch it get evened up when its out of reach. They must have taken the 1.01, or the line

 

[DHRD]

You know what stat i love? 9 tackles in fwd 50. We're putting lots of forward pressure on them.

 

[Runk]

I'm gonna just say it, it's the elephant in the room: Jackson Merrett is playing real well and one of the reasons we are in this still in this

 

[rumply]

They were weren't they

 

[MiguelM]

Need more from Zaka, Parish.

 

[Knighta21]

Plenty of positives in that half.

Clearance work been great, probably Bird best game for the club so far.

To the gut is fine apparently (see hawkins then Talia??)

Yeah that was horrible, 10 not over the top, our 2 should be 6ish by my rough count

 

[yaco55]

Team has been very competitive and are doing well in the pressure stakes - Ball use is solid, though a bit shaky from defence - Still some issues with aerial balls in defensive which has cost us 3 goals - Tippa hold your feet.
