Round 9 - Bombers v Swans - Friday May 16th - Etihad Stadium.

[AaronKirk]

Effort and intensity... 2 words that the Essendon Football Club do not understand.

We need to lift our work-rate to get back into the game. However we have not shown any level of acceptable work-rate since round 3 so I don't have much confidence.

Could get really, really ugly if we don't lift.

Who is this Lance Franklin and what did he do with the Lance Franklin from last week?  :P  :o

If he keeps it up there will be a lot of talk about a Higgins/Buddy straight swap!

I've had him all year in DT/SC :-\ and will definitely get him in after his bye in AF

You poor barbie! At least he seems to be coming good.I hope NicNat does the same for me one day!  ::)

Yeah, but now that everyone else will just get him. He was meant to just start good! Haha

Yeah, there's that feeling that 'I've been through the bad times, how dare you all get him cheap!' It's worse when it's an injury that let's everyone get your star for peanuts.

Please no repeat 2012 Swannies when Essendon kicked like 11 goals in a row :(

[Slashers]

Ambrose seems to be getting a little screwed. 16 even for 3 marks and 2 tackles seems low even if he shanked his 5 kicks and 1 handball.

Lock Rory Davey into your fantasy teams in about 15 years.  ;)

Haha, I was down the pub this Arvo and that game was on the tv. Swans killing them, glanced up 20 minutes later and thought "Wow, now I remember!"

Alwyn have another kid?

[Mat0369]

Ryder has looked dangerous at FF. Probably should have clunked a couple

[Nige]

Alwyn have another kid?

Not even close.

Kid looks like Jack Riewoldt.

[kilbluff1985]

Yeah, I agree. I haven't been watching but that seems a bit ridiculous...

[Mat0369]

Something tells me Essendon are spastic enough to take off a runner and replace them with Carlisle

[Mat0369]

How the hell is Ambrose on 9?  :o

[Mailman the 2nd]

Umpire  :o
