Game Day Round 21 vs Essendon - Saturday August 5 @ Marvel

[Liriel]

"Eagles will feel they are in this contest". Very insightful from the commentator, considering we are 2pts up.

 

[bzparkes]

We're in front but Essendon have butchered shots on goal.

Fix that up and they'd easily be 3+ goals up.

 

[MaxHunt]

Lol so whinging about the bloke not hanging onto a simple mark getting a free but Oscar gets buried during the marking contest and nothing.

******* useless Vic campaigners.

You've never been to an Eagles home game I'm guessing.

 

[InTheWings]

That's another occasion where Oscar keeps going back with the flight instead holding his ground and easily milking a free for front on contact

Gotta feel that his shoulder injury is more of a concern than he'd like?

take anything atm dude

Nice to see some of the younger players in the centre square. They’re bringing the energy and run.

Referring to the commentators.

Clark with his 1 plodding gear as sub makes no sense.

He needs to be in the guts for a whole game digging in with his size.

I swear the sub these days is just given less and less thought. It used to be an actual tactical thing, selecting a burst player... nowadays they just chuck in whoever.

I agree with this 100%.

IS that the same commentator who kept calling Hewett 'Chesser' earlier in the qtr?

 

[Spange]

Do we sing the song we won a first quarter away from home?

Save it for the plane ride home

All good, so far. Playing well - T Cole, except for 1 terrible hack kick, has been excellent.

 

[the harry]

I agree with this 100%.

Particularly when Duggan starts on ball.


Is there a worse kick for goal in the side?

 

[RookiePick]

Kelly being able to play first receiver makes us look heaps better imo. Can use his smarts and strength to get into space.

 

[Mop]

Bailey Williams mobility on full display that quarter. The second efforts. He’s quite handy eh

Ground ball skills are really improving. Looking really good for a big man tbh

Came here to rage about losing yet again, having to switch to raging about losing Reid.

Well done Witho there

 

[Wooshaaaa]

F@rk me. This is like watching us 2 yrs ago when we thought this game style still held up only to have the cats dismantle it.

Witherden with a few choice words for XOn

 

[Westend]

Maric great skills and goal sense

 

[InTheWings]

Williams you star!

 

[Eaglemaniac]

Great work Bailey, Oscar and Maric. Should have been a free to Darling as he was being held without the the ball there.

 

[Dark Sharks]

Maric loves those check side kicks

 

[Mulldogg]

Well done for kicking it but he’s woefully one sided Maric. Nice right foot kick but would want to develop a serviceable left foot at AFL level.
