Game Day West Coast Eagles v Essendon, Finals Week 1 - 18:10 AWST, Sep 05, 2019

[caitsith01]

This has been borderline unwatchable trash from a neutral perspective.

 

[WWSD]

Everyone spare a thought for...

Jade
Jobe Watson
Loken
Saint

 

[Great8]

I've been dreading this game for 2 weeks

2 weeks only?
We limped into finals after a garbage season and would have been killed by any of those in the 8.

 

[Knox Harrington]

Rioli the cheat claiming a mark he dropped.
Shameful unsavoury behaviour

 

[SayerTheCreator]

Surely not. Even the powers that be would prefer NN marketing for finals.

Sad but true. Not sad because I want him rubbed out but sad that different rules apply based on marketability

 

[Lsta062]

Umpiring has been pretty good today

 

[Sleutheren]

well if the umpire knew he didn't mark it, he should have done Rioli HTB for being a deceptive knob.

 

[FFB1]

This telecast is terrible.
Eagle player gets slightly injured gotta get the cameras on him.
Mitch brown injured. Nothing.

Who?

 

[Crashy]

This has been borderline unwatchable trash from a neutral perspective.

thank god for the cricket

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Essendon will be a much better team when that Fantasia for Wines straight swap goes through.

Oh Lloydy

 

[WCfan22]

they're not junk time now.
It's all about momentum from here on in.

Yeah I know there's a spanner on here bagging out our goal kickers. I was taking the piss

 

[estibador]

Always good to see a loser gracious in defeat !!!

That guy is consistently the worst gameday thread poster I've seen on this site, and we all know there's a lot of competition for that title.

 

[Disco_Stu]

Dons just missing something.

[WWSD]

The Pies will beat them next week.

I don’t know about that. I think the Eagles key forwards could trouble the Pies back six.

 

[Jobe]

What were people really expecting here? No shit we were going to get thumped, we lucked out even making the top 8, hell we finished with 90 odd percent.
The culture surrounding the club is putrid, massive overhaul required.

No even an overreaction, simply the truth.

Oh agree

 

[Upgrayedd]

NicNat's response was the most dangerous thing a player has done on a footy field this season. Terrible precedent if you can try to end someone's career because they pulled your hair.

The tears.

 

[Generalissimo]

Umpiring has been pretty good today

A few dubious decisions early on, but after 1/4 time they've been very good indeed.

I wish I could tag Nuffies on AFL Pages

 

[sobrave]

Ling talking shit.
Don't mention Hurley and hooker being cooked, no ruckman, a soft midfield with a bunch of downhill skiing outside runners

 

[Snarls Barkley]

This telecast is terrible.
Eagle player gets slightly injured gotta get the cameras on him.
Mitch brown injured. Nothing.

They said he hurt his calf. What more do you want? A 'Danger cam' box in the corner?

Although the telecast is always putrid

 

[captain blood 17]

It's refreshing to see the majority of neutral supporters coming together and enjoying what we are watching.

Essendon are miles off contending for a flag, even more than I thought actually.

As far as lists go, Carlton has a better list than Essendon.

Rip the band aid off and start again

 

[Disco_Stu]

Elliot Yeo has a bit of the T1000’s in him. Cold. Emotionless. Doesn’t stop coming. Good player.

 

[juss]

This has been borderline unwatchable trash from a neutral perspective.

Are you surprised? 8th was always going to be smashed by 5th this year when you look at the teams that were trying to scrape into the 8 compared to the top 5.
