Essendon = Entitlement

they will respond... might be for 5 min, 15min, 125min. Yeh we know its a terrible start / season but never disrespect your opponents. Lets do what we have done so well over 3 weeks now. Run and carry, mix of chaos and tempo footy, winning contested ball (that was refreshing on Saturday) and getting 50 % less free kicks than the opposition.

We need to build on the fact we have had Lambert, Cotch, Dusty and Prestia all back. Graham is running his rear off and Shai, after Q time is was brilliant. Two rucks is working OK, can and will get better. Gibcus comes in for Balta and we just need to make the supply to 2M Peter "dirty" ... pressure pressure pressure.

TP agree with you wholeheartedly.

For how long they can will be really up to us.

Be 5-10% off we lose.

2 metre P is a real concern for me.

The media will continue to come hard till bounce time Saturday night.

Judging by the media pump up already (it’s only Monday) and the focus on them, this is gonna be Arsendon’s Grand Final.

I hope we come out and nail 5 on the board before they know what hit them.
I want to take great delight in watching their supporters absolutely turn on them.

Can anyone recall that prior to when Heppell was drafted, he told the tigers a story which led us to overlook him Bombers gloated about it for years after how they outsmarted everyone

One f my finest football,achievements was to have some 'friendly' banter with two different bomber fans which morphed into them having a verbal stoush with each other with me just watching like a tennis match.

This is what needs to happen.

Even if the Tigers put 3 on em quick smart they'll get the wobbles up.

As long as we dont let them put 3-4 quick ones on us whilst we get our heads in the game like we tend to do every now and again.

The Bombers really stuffed up their Dreamtime jumper by not designing it as a clash jumper despite being the away team.

Plenty going wrong at that club.
