Lol ... is this teasing? Some would say that this has happened at Essendon for donkey's.

haha that's a great point! lets hope that's slowly changing now

If we got #1 last year there is no way they will intervene if that does happen... but it wont happen

I guess with no pressure to get better you simply can run around and still get games when you have made a name already

What got me is we kept going to the boundary all day long... even with 5 mins to go and needing 2 goals they yet again went to the boundary and guess what... stoppage! I'm making the trip to Adelaide this weekend and if we dish up the same weak ass game plan again I'm gana be pissed

It might be time to put our AA backmen (Hooker and Hurley) back together and give McKernan and/or Stewart a run up forward. YES! I love hookers enthusiasm and attack up forward but his best is down back, I'd bring in Francis to go with Joe up forward. Just feel that's where we will see the most out...

I think I read today, Howlett has a slight hammy strain and has been ruled out

Etihad is free................

Agree!

Move the game and move it now!

We play them again later in the year, when the Gabba is free.... just swap and move on (but they wont)

His intercept marking and kicking is very good, but I agree, needs some size about him to create a full rounded game, I think he'll keep his spot.

My parents and a couple of cousins are in Airlie Beach, my family facebook chat has been going nuts all day, some of their video is crazy! It's still going at it's worst, such a long event with it only moving 8km/h.

Correct me If I'm wrong and it's the first game so still stocked but Hurley a few times seemed to be a bit lackluster, A couple of shepards here and there he didn't want to put on or wasn't quite focused on his awareness 100%, however that effort to chase down the ball and touch it before the goal l...

I'll be there!! can't wait, so happy footy season is back. A win and I'll lose my shit

Joined!

We just stopped dead after half time... I'm hoping that Woosha simply said we don't need to win guys, you've shown you can play let just relax and run out the game with no injuries, maybe a little too hopeful but it's all I have left Hurley and Bags going to ground was horrible to watch, turnover fr...

I said the same thing, bloody embarrassing haha! but even with the haircut his form doesn't really warrant a game right now... he needs to step it up

Pointless drawing conclusions after a couple of test sessions in Spain. Somewhat similar to drawing up a form guide during the JTL series. Red Bull's greatest advantage, aerodynamics, have not even been fully employed as yet and most pundits believe that due to A/D wizard Adrian Newey, this will be...

Etihad is really showing its age and need a fortune spent on it. Just to illustrate this, the internal TV packed it in for over an hour!!! I think they must've got a discount on TV screens because they were everywhere in the inner concourse! I can't remember them in those numbers from last year. ev...

10 years.

3 owners. You jerks owe me $40 for keeping this going.

pfft those jerks owe me like $140 first

I hope they do strike or at least something that messes with the TV coverage, hit em where it hurts! As desmondo said, start and hour later

I watched the first game and a bit of the others but I can already tell that my interest will fade pretty quickly without an Essendon team there.
