Lest We Forget.
Pies, should get up in the Anzac Day clash.
Either the Bombers will bounce back after "hitting the wall" last week, or the Pies will absolutely smoke 'em
We'll get up.

I think we are entitled to lose to the best side in the comp at their home ground.
All this BS that we were terrible and have hit the wall is just rubbish. They were really good early and the game was over after 10 minutes. From then on we actually played alright.
Go Bombers.

Yeah you lost to the best in the game, then you got smashed by Adelaide the week after :o ;)
I'll be picking the Pies with 0% confidence
Gee wizz, 2 sides that both think they are miles ahead of what they actually are.
Sadly only one side can get the reality check needed here.
Collingwood by a few points... But wow, its going to be ugly to watch.

Says the Eagles supporter? :P
I'm struggling to see us win this week, although we do tend to lift for Anzac Day games.

I think he is talking shower TBH. We were terrible v Carlton from poor coaching/gamestyle which didn't suit the conditions and then got blown away by Adelaide in the first term.
From 1/4 time onwards we didn't play too badly. We lost the rest of the game by 5 goals after being 6 down at 1/4 time. GWS lost by 56 points against Adelaide. Have they hit the wall? No they are going alright. I think there are 17 teams in the comp who would all lose to Adelaide at Adelaide Oval on current form.
I always expected us to be slow starting last week after the game on the Heavy 10 surface against Carlton.
We freshen up with a decent break and hopefully are ready to play well this week. There are no excuses for not running the game out on Anzac Day.
I don't have confidence we will win but the "hitting the wall" crap is just excuses. They should be fresh after 12 months out.

I don't disagree with you, I thought the Bombers fought the game out well last week considering their opponent. I also think they are a very good chance this week.
need at least 184 between Grundy and McGrath for the win. not confident
Yeah no idea who to pick in this game. Probably Collingwood for me.
Collingwood to win by 26
Brodie Grundy to win the Anzac Medal

I tipped Essendon so I hope they get up :P
It has been raining all night and morning, we know how well Essendon went against Carlton in the rain

In that game though, there were clear tactical errors from the team. Went for precise kicking and difficult manoveres. Can't see Woosha employing the same tactics today.
Also, there isn't meant to be the flood of rain there was that day so we should see a more even contest.
No late changes

Not ideal at all
Reckon they've seen how well Mundy/Fyfe/Neale going forward has helped out Freo's forward line so they're trying the same thing to support Moore?
Either way, don't like it lol
Get on the ball Pendles please!

Now he goes forward.
Bucks hates my SC! ;D

I reckon somethings up with him. But he's back in there now

I was just about to say the same thing
Reckon I've only seen Pendles once too
Flower me
HAHA Kelly - even put his hand up to say how obvious it was haha
Kelly knew that was deliberate straight away haha
Nah seriously wtf is going on
Have legit not seen WHE once and haven't seen Pendles in 10 minutes +
Hoskin-Elliott has been invisible. Pendles with only the two hand passes in the quarter so far.
Just saw a fraction of WHE's head for the first time
C'mon Pendles! I have you as captain.
Classic Treloar, clean break from the centre clearance, handball to the feet of a teammate 2m away ::)
Just saw WHE in the def 50 haha

Man I hope McNiece works out, 102k def rookie would be great in a few weeks
I don't reckon that was touched

Yeah no deflection on the fingers
I think Wells has remembered how to football this qtr
Terrible defence by Collingwood at that stoppage!
Settle down whe 2 handballs in a row
ABC radio just said the Brownlow medalist got a goal assist there, talking about Jobe Watson. When did he win a Brownlow?? ???

ABC radio? Isn't that just run by and listened to by geriatrics? They don't have great memory :P
Sidey!
Pendles and WHE
Please
Adams has been playing a lot of forward as well.
Sorry I ruined Pendles for everyone guys.
Why the flower do I keep tipping Collingwood ::)
how's the pick up by WHE
Hoskin-Elliott's pick up was ridiculous. Kick was brilliant as well but spud Moore dropped the chest mark.
WHE! Running bounce +2 points!
This is the worst I've seen Pendles play, and of course I have him as flowering captain.

Why didn't I captain Treloar.
TRELOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAR
Treloar has been huge
Treloar's tank is incredible
He is just every where every time
Pendles not even on 30SC! >:(
weak tackling attempt McGrath. pretty much let Treloar kick the goal
Keep going Treloar

He had been very bad, can't pick the ball up today.
Something is wrong with Pendles. Looks way off the pace
Game on the line - Pendles 2 goals and 8 touches 3rd qtr coming up :-*
Treloar, thank you
I think Sidey was 3SC at 1/4. Now 49 at 1/2 time
Carn WHE, big second half now the sun has come out.
Pendles doesn't look like getting near it.

Eagerly awaiting Buck's explanation ;)
They should bring in a rule that punishes a player who gets tackled and doesn't dispose of the ball correctly...
WHE hasn't scored a point this quarter!
WHE time to trade his arse out now
Quote from: RaisyDaisy on April 25, 2017, 06:17:14 PM
WHE hasn't scored a point this quarter!
I think they missed his handball....
WHE will be lucky to hit his BE of 49
Rough + WHE out this week for me
Premo mid and rookie in
You know there's something wrong with Pendles when Schade is scoring more than him
Needed Pendles and WHE to score 136 combined to win my Elxam match.
Looking at being 0-3.
:'(

Tipped the bombers which means if they win flowering West Coast will have cost me a 9 game multi :(

Feeling mighty confident as a Tiges supported I'd imagine, Toges? Looking forward to Dreamtime.
Essendon and Carlton are pretty even in terms of quality and potential, so I'd say their win in torrential rain may not be the result most of the time and it'd be generally more even.
Jukes faith never surprises me though, not sure FTC's quote is gonna hold him to much though, whether we win or lose. ;)
Lol Torp I'm not the one talking up finals chances ;)
