Game thread: VS Bombers.

[seano1]

Hird is gone.

Surely.

No answers.

Looks absolutely defeated in the box.

Yep I think our blend of new an old players and a coach that has been an assistant coach who has done the hard yards is the way to go.....Dons have imported players that are pretty finished and not playing their kids and hird who is learning as he goes....

and the best bit will be watching their fans start leaving at 3/4 time

Agree. If he's not fired by tomorrow then Essendon should be deregistered for total incompetence.

[St Loxton]

Armoooo, Bam lovely to watch 111 to 39

[Trev from the Bush]

Weller gain. 66 points up, over 100 by 3/4 time.

The Bummers beat us by 2 points last time; the game we should have won. That was the turning point for the Saints, they didn't know how to win.

This flogging has been a long time coming and signifies the changing of the guard. Bummer to the bottom, Saints on the march.

Armo goals, luvvin it!

Oh so not inject young boys with stuff to make them big and strong in 3 months then

[mullet]

oh good turned over just to see goddard yelling at someone again

[saintsRrising]

Got our accuracy on goal that quarter

[Austinnn]

Looks like the bombers are finally giving us that preseason match they owed us.

Hahahahahahaha!

Pity the poor old Saints cheersquad who must be getting a bit of a workout today. And for the tankers, don't worry, the young'uns'll probably fade late in the season and lose a few games for you.

[Bunk_Moreland]

Tankers will be sad.

After all we have nobody coming up,

Lonie - Hack
Sinclair - spud
Billing - hopeless
Bruce - useless
Membrey - second rate
Armo and Steven - not up to it
Newnes - terrible
Webster - dud

And those hacks in the resies who cant even get game like Goddard McCartin, DMAC, Acres, Eli, Hickey etc

We are gone.

Really terrible to be playing so well

[Bunk_Moreland]

DAVID KING - muppet.

Saints wont win a game this season -lol

Goddard is getting a game for Essendon. Good practice for next year when he returns to us for nothing

[magnifisaint]

If we smash them in the last quarter will Essendon be part of the minute silence at the end. Will their supporters stay

[Austinnn]

At the start of the quarter All Nicholson said on ABC, "Jobe Watson will be hoping he can inject himself into the action in this quarter"

You have to laugh.

Unless you are James Hird.

Then you really would want to inject yourself.

[SaintPav]

We're tearing Hird a new one!!!!

[kalsaint]

Time for #12 to get into the game a bit.

I agree but the counter argument is that the team are sharing it well. I want this for the future and if Nick gets 2 goals per game he has done his job.

[Austinnn]

We're tearing Hird a new one!!!!

Contract? More like tearing up his current one.

................and why is SCHNEIDER playing????????????????? Just taking money off the club and keeping a kid out.

Oh, and kicking a goal!

[mullet]

Essendon are playing like they are trying to get hird sacked

[bigred]

Should win by a hunjie here....



131 to 45

[MC Gusto]

This is tremendous!

[Trev from the Bush]

Can I add, easily Billy Longer's best game for the club. Getting plenty of the ball; 16 possessions and 30 hit outs 10 minutes in.

[dragit]

Watson needs a few AOD shots, seeing as it isn't banned and all... Looks fat and unfit.

[seano1]

maybe dons are tanking

[kalsaint]

Why is it that Saints lead in nearly all stats including contested footy but frees still favour Essendon? Don't we pay frees anymore when making the play? AFL need to look at these blody idiots.

At end of the third quarter Dons still in front on this one stat and the difference was growing, why?!!!

Still 10 to 6 Dons way?
