Bring it on bitches! I tipped us.

My mate - the Tasmanian Bachelor of the Year - is up at the game today. If you see a group of guys - and girls- in bright orange gear, all looking a bit seedy that's them

Hope Scarlet gets cained by Lloydy...

Only listening at this stage but sounds like Hille is having a decent sort of a game.

If Chook lets one more bounce off his chest I'm gonna shit. First one was trickier, second one was a simple bloody chest mark. If you're playing up forward, it isn't all about presenting... but taking the bloody mark!!!

Kids are exciting thus far, I thougth Schwartze hated Essendon? Just about pisses his pants everytime he sees us play.

Sounds like we're getting smashed at stoppages but manages to clean up well enough. A lot of the ball being played in our forward line but we're not capitalising. Getting it forward but no score on the board, whereas they move forward and generally get something on the board.

Sounds like we're getting the raw end of some umpiring at the moment too. Ryder just got slammed into the fence?

We sound as if we are really in this game and are matching it, sorry if to state the obvious just got back from work

Same old problem falling down at half forward. Getting the ball forward well enough but then instead of hitting a target inside 50 we're brain fading and the rebound results in a goal against. Bugger!

Who is Ablett's opponent? Sounds like he doesn't have one. If that's the case there's a real problem with our setup.

That's pretty much it boyler room. Nothing really in the forward line, Chook is suffering from the fumbles and most of our action is haring out of the middle.

Rama and Ryder are both having a pretty good game thus far, McPhee has showed some form. Froggy has had a bit of it too.

Is anyone here wanting score updates or can everyone see/hear it?

McPhee causing problems for Geelong across half forward. Beating Milburn comfortably by the sounds... but kicks a behind and now Geelong rebound and Ryder releases the pressure with a good mark in defense.

For crying out loud... Just gave away a free inside 50 instead of having a shot we're letting them rebound easily.

Their bigger bodies are having an effect early inn terms of breakingb tackles etc. Couple of shocking disposal from Stanton and a realy poor effort by him that resulted in Kelly contemptuously throwing the ball at him.

Paddy doing well on Mooney, Rama, Dempsey and Dsyon all getting a bit of it.

Misses are costly must peg one or two back ASAP.

Trent West kicks a goal for Geelong...

Gee 4.3.27
Ess 1.2.8

Still giving away those bloody in the back free kicks....roll the buggers over and keep out of their backs for god's sake

Post by **Megan** » Sun Mar 30, 2008 1:37 pm

BR will get back to you when I work it out, he's up to 9 possies and shitting all over us.

I reckon Chook is nearly our new Bolton going off this game...

Splodge · Post by **Splodge** » Sun Mar 30, 2008 1:37 pm

Started well but sounds like Geelong starting to take control

Still think there's more to come from us today

Qtr Time
Geel 4.4.28
Ess 1.2.8

Holy crap - Cats are F****** lethal on the counterattack and from the stoppages. Our intensity is great but it just bounces off the Cats. I think they've won every centre clearance.

Interesting to see how we respond to that intense opening quarter where we went tackle crazy. I hope we aren't too buggered.

Did Knights forget to tag Ablett???

Lucky to be this close at 1/4 time. Geelong are looking every inch the reigning premiers.

Davey gies away a high tackle with a second to go... siren goes.

Hunt has a torp from 70 or something... and latched on but went for a behind.

Quarter Time
Geelong 4.4.28
Essendon 1.2.8
