Round 8 - Essendon vs North Melbourne - Saturday 14th May 1:45pm - ES

[LF]

Wood out cold,hope he is alright he didn't move for awhile

[Mat0369]

Do you remember when if you were stretchered off you had to wait 20 minutes before coming back on?

[Gigantor]

Nice work from the bombers, hopefully they don't run out of juice and get blown away in the last quarter

[Mat0369]

I hate this deliberate interpretation. It's becoming an absolute joke now.

[RaisyDaisy]

Mitch Brown killing me

[Gigantor]

Come on Parish! Don't stop now!

[TomK]

One of the downsides to bringing in Merrett over a defender was that I had to field Brown. Mixed feelings atm :-\

[Big Mac]

Tippa having a decent last qtr, hopefully it translates to SC

[AaronKirk]

I haven't watched the game but a 14 point loss is a good result considering we didn't kick a 1st half goal.

[LF]

Another quarter Bombers would have won this,great last quarter effort from the Bombers

[RaisyDaisy]

All week I was bringing in Zerrett, and then changed my mind today

LOL I really need to stop making last minute changes

Zerrett in next week for sure

[Big Mac]

[Jukes]

Very proud of the performance today, lots of these youngsters definitely have a bright future in the red and black even with the returning players coming back

[Mat0369]

Mitch Brown killing me

Last week I loopholed Menadue and McCarthy, I decided to field McCarthy and he got injured for 14. This week I tried Ruggles and Brown and took Brown. It's icing on the cake of crappy performances since I also have Brodie Smith.

[AaronKirk]

I traded Docherty into my SC side and took Brown off field. Dea and Walla on field were respectable.

I am very much looking forward to 2017 as an Essendon supporter
