Might just be me but I have a bad feeling about this one. Heppell and Hurley are big ins and I can see Saad walking it out of our F50. Conventional wisdom says that we are still a stronger, better-drilled side but with 3 of our top 6 most important players (IMO) riding the pine, I have a bad feeling about it.
Someone convince me otherwise - I got a knot in my stomach the size of a bloody rock

Heppel and Hurley arent going to turn the mediocre Dons into world beaters. They're underdone and have maybe half a game in them before they are cooked.
Saad is quality but he basically has no one worthwhile to deliver the ball to upfield.
Chill out. They're witches hats.

Are you a relation of TY24 ?
So Draper is rucking solo without Bellchambers. He’s done that in 3 of his 4 games. In those 3 games he’s lost the hitouts by an average of 11 per game. That would put Essendon 2nd from bottom in hut out differential. Ahead of only the feared Tim English/Dunkley ruck combo...
though the bombers actually were ahead in clearances in those games.
Eagles have the best differential in the league in hit outs. Nic Nat needs to, dominate him tonight, and not only in raw numbers but must give our mids first use

Thanks man. I do think it's a danger game but I would love nothing more than Bailey Williams clunking a few and TB giving Joey a bath. I'm usually pretty pragmatic and realistic but struggling tonight!
Nah, the Bulldogs and Saints games are danger games. This one we should win comfortably without getting out of second gear.
As long as we arent thinking a week ahead as a playing group, we'll piss this one in.
I think that's where a bit of this anxiety is from - Dogs and Saints games are danger games, which reinforces the importance of getting out there with a W tonight - knowing what's to come
Why would Hurley be underdone?
He's missed one game.
"No one worthwhile to deliver the ball to".
You don't rate Daniher, Stringer, Hooker, Tipper and Mozzie?
For a side which has only beaten 16th and 18th in Qld, I don't see where your (over)confidence is from TBH.
I hope you're right though

Agree, the bombers forward line is pretty scary really (for an average side). Daniher makes a huge difference. Massive danger game.
Stringer worries me. Just the kind of player to bob up and have a season best game against us and kick 6. To then do absolutely nothing for the rest of the year
Remember HoneyBadger35 - maximum bias this week. We need to hear how great West Coast is and how sh*t Essendon and the umps are at every single stoppage. Relying on your "Westo Bias" to get us over the line.
I expect you to tell every Bomber and umpire to piss off at least once.

Going to be interesting with the way the club sets up with so many running defenders named in the squad.
The high defensive press went missing after quarter time against GWS and didn't appear at all against Richmond - I suspect it could be back in a very big way tonight.

Love the idea of badge and co. doing commentary. However last game it was out of sinc with my povo channel 7 coverage, will this be the case tonight?
Probably. I still listened to the commentary though. Was cool to listen to stuff after it happened, like the Richmond 65m kick. Loved the "starts his run up.....thats bullshit".

Hey mate - unavoidably, it will be about 15 seconds behind the live Foxtel/Channel Seven feed because of the way it broadcasts. If you can pause your TV, we explain in the call how to sync it up.
Otherwise it should be live to Kayo if you have that option!

I'm quite nervous for tonight's game. Essendon are a dangerous team when they find momentum and we're not running at full strength. It being another night match in Queensland dents the confidence too.
Head says Essendon by 10, heart says Eagles by 27.

Is there a way of playing the commentary back on delay? I'm going to miss the game and will be watching replay later tonight.Rumours beginning to swirl that a local favourite might be joining us on the call tonight.
Mute your TV and listen in from 6pm.

Sorry mate. After a triumphant 10 goal win you might be inclined to catch a replay, in which case you can listen back on demand!I cannot
