1hr til game time. Can't wait to knock off work and watch the game. Sunny day in sydney so if we get our run on conditions will suit. GO Bombers

[Royza]

Need to make the most of our forward entries. O'Loughlin was a bit of a talisman last week. Whenever he got excited the Swans fired up in what was mainly an average game. Looking forward to see Spike have a big game.

[Royza]

J McVeigh out! Definitely helps.

We're playing better than them just not converting opportunities. Two easy goals. Winning clearances too. Jobe Watson of course!

Goal Dyson as i type, beautiful dribbler. Hurley doing well.

Where is everyone ?

dont tell me we have ourselves a shootout

Essendon has to get tighter defensively. Looks like goals are flowing to readily the other way

How many of our 6 behinds were gettable?

I mean, 6.4 is a whole lot better than 4.6

we blew the chance to exert score board pressure against Collingwood last week and they blew us away after qtr time

[Royza]

Should be killing this mob. As always, poor conversion & dumb turnovers costing. Watson playing well.

Yep. Thinking same thing but we are dominating general play which we didn't last week. I think we were kicking into the wind the quarter because a couple of kicks held up or faded. Looking forward to a massive quarter.

****** ADAM GOODES!! SOMEONE TAKE HIM OUT! O'LOUGHLIN BY HIMSELF! Lucky he missed!

[paddyl90]

Great Goal Lloydy!!
