Review Round 19 - GWS Giants vs Essendon Bombers, Sunday August 9th, 3.20pm, Spotless Stadium

[Andre the Giant]

We just need big General to get a goal to cap it off.

 

[Land of the Giants]

Suddenly we've doubled their score!

 

[Andre the Giant]

Cooney you cowardly has been grub. Hope you get weeks.

 

[Scully2Folau]

Cooney is pathetic.

 

[Andre the Giant]

When we get our shit together we can be so exciting. Just need it for 4 quarters.

It will come

Forgettable first half. Good to see the boys fight though it and come out on top.

 

[Mr_McBoogerBalls]

Congrats on the win, good to see your young guys developing into the players you've wanted them to be - hopefully our young guns develop successfully in the near future also.

Good luck for the rest of the season!

 

[MacMum]

Big congrats...you did it!

 

[Scully2Folau]

Did enough for the win. Hopefully not too much damage to Scully and Cogs. Patton looked good, he was blowing in the second half but that's to be expected in his first senior game back.

 

[Cmarsh]

McCarthy's impact as sub was pleasing to see.

 

[van peebles]

Blokes in magoo's thinking they may have to be lucky to be in finals team.

 

[Ichabod Noodle]

Cooney a dog.

Good win in the end. Some flat out bizarre umpiring decisions. Leon will have to have another word with Wayne Campbell.

Big Sauce stood up, too a couple of great grabs and did more than ok in the ruck.

Hope the injuries aren't too bad.

 

[Land of the Giants]

I thought we'd win, but not like that. But a win's a win.

Can't wait for the derby.

Some negative coaching from the opposition but got there in the end, guess there's not much else to do when you are staring down the barrel of unemployment.

They selected Heath Hocking!! They were all about negating.
Honestly, both teams spewed up way too many unforced errors. (Giants better by hand than foot).

 

[Giant Pete]

2nd week in a row we have been well beaten in centre clearances and contested possessions. We should have smashed Essendon today. Steinberg and Cooney were our best players!

Challenging game to watch again, some poor disposal by foot by some and then 2 very bad rundowns from behind for htb decisions. During the first half it looked like the Bombers had too much space and were able to control the play and with improved shooting accuracy the scoreline would have been closer than it was.
Greene (2 hitouts from the little guy) and Coniglio the best mids and Corr turning into a dependable defender
Hope Wilson sticks with the club as his run and disposal can break a game open, he has grabbed his chance this year and Kennedy and Hampton have been forced down the order unfortunately. although with 4 games left they still have an opportunity play seniors and get another contract

All true but Kennedy and Hampton are contracted for next year

Its time for cranky Leon. To make sure they understand.

Congrats on inamedthegiants. He obviously has been very quiet. Was expecting the worst the way we were playing

He probably has a ban from the st Kilda board the big fella

Very interesting if this is regarding McCarthy

 

[Ellie Aquitaine]

I wonder if Essendon players get paid per disposal. They had 100+ disposals in each of the first three quarters, but so much went short and nowhere.

They went somewhere.... Backwards.
