Game Day Round 22 - Essendon v Gold Coast, Marvel Stadium, 10/8/24, 7.30pm AEST

[Yoda_]

I don't know why we are playing Cox back, he was showing some signs fwd of the ball. I get necessity but geez hes a simple footballer

 

[Old man fletch]

its not a rule anymore. infuriating

That and htb. Lasted for a month. Although they seem to call it exclusively on us tonight

 

[mike14]

Still not seeing what Cox has at this level

 

[Yoda_]

Hayes is legitimately better than Laverde.

skill wise, probably
physically, nuh

 

[carnthedons]

DRAPERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

The Bryan gather and handball was even better in my book

 

[NoWuckingFurries]

its not a rule anymore. infuriating

not a rule anymore... again..

 

[Snake Charmer]

**** me that goal is a reset for Draper to become a big dumb idiot again

 

[Yoda_]

I genuinely hate this football club sometimes.

All the momentum, all the play and then dumb mistakes and lapses in concentration sees Gold Coast level scores 5 minutes later..

 

[jarka11]

backline is an embarassment

 

[Snake Charmer]

Cox has had enough I reckon lol

 

[mike14]

Doesn't look good for Cox.
There was something darkly poetic about Laverde and him crashing into each other...

 

[Vindicater]

Cox out might help us. Has been atrocious so far.

 

[fishardansin]

Laverde wanted Cox subbed too it looks like.

 

[Snake Charmer]

Still not seeing what Cox has at this level

Very few stick figures make it at the top level.

 

[southern_crusher]

Still not seeing what Cox has at this level

He has nothing, You cannot be that soft at AFL level.

 

[southern_crusher]

Laverde wanted Cox subbed too it looks like.

Best thing Lavs done tonight.

 

[Bjchan13]

Hobbs should be given the job on Rowell

 

[Beerfish]

Sare reckons Hobbsy's warm up is 'pretty impressive'

 

[fishardansin]

Fffff it is painful to watch Essendon

 

[mike14]

McGrath is another who has looked very pedestrian over the past month. He's always up and down to a large extent, but there hasn't been much up lately.
Also seems unable to stick tackles

 

[Yoda_]

Unsure if anyone picked it up but that tough collision on the young fella (maybe Menzie) and only McGrath put a pathetic amount of "shit" on the Gold Coast Sun.

Genuinely embarrassing how nice and timid we are as a football club. Merret tried to but then wanted to hide it. Seriously Grow a ****ing set and rub it in. So much for this "edge"

 

[Vindicater]

Peak Essington activated

 

[Snake Charmer]

Cox out

 

[jmoo wan]

he has two physios working his hamstrings before he’s even come on… i’m impressed with that

McGrath, Davey, Redman has lost the edge he played on. We really are a nice footbal team
