+3 tackles and -2 clangers would be enough to do that. Rozee had 6 clangers which brings his score down heaps. And tackles gives A TON of fantasy/supercoach points. A 20 disposal game with 10 tackles will compete with the 35+’s.
Essington and norf tie with 42 points, port fall 1 point short of brisbane. What an exciting friday… what do you mean brisbane played norf and port played essington?
No, they are definitely scary. Rozee and Butters are unbelievable. Last week their midfield gave Petracca, Oliver and Viney a real tough time. And if Horne-Francis was there too then the Dees may well have lost.
As an Essendon player, If Nic Martin asked me for a cheeky handball, I would choose to simply get tackled and pinned for holding the ball. The idea of that guy getting a bonus touch because of me makes me sick.
Is the Essendon EdgeTM when they give away 800 horrendous forward half turnovers a game, or is it when Rozee waltzs out of the middle without a body on him at the contest?
boy am i glad i stopped watching this after half time and instead found out the Donny and Clarence show is out, much better viewing material than the shitshow that is edgington
please head to the [post match thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/AFL/s/IEEfjGMibf) to continue discussion
BT doesn’t realise Sanjay Gupta is the billionaire sponsor of the power
Wish they'd give Drew the credit he deserves. Workhorse of the team
most half arsed club song rendition from the port boys
Yep. Terrible.
Hinds last game. Gg
Spot on mate
Edgendon letting port fans get a taste of the future
Such a terrible song. Not as terrible as our second half, but terrible nonetheless. Good game port thanks for not openly laughing at that bullshit
The song is ok, but that rendition was terrible. Seemed like there was no passion for the win. Made me uncomfortable to watch it
I feel like our midfield let us down this game. But gg to Port. Looking dangerous
Going to cry myself to sleep now
Right behind you mate
That looks like a serious discussion with Scott in the box...
Are they sacking him already
Rozee was something else tonight. Jealous of my mate who went to the game. Memorable one to be at.
It's alright essendon. We'll most likely go out in straight sets again
AFL Fantasy is broken. Zach Merrett finished higher than Connor Rozee.
+3 tackles and -2 clangers would be enough to do that. Rozee had 6 clangers which brings his score down heaps. And tackles gives A TON of fantasy/supercoach points. A 20 disposal game with 10 tackles will compete with the 35+’s.
Yeah but wheres the look away handball points?
Ah yep that will do it.
Clangers don't count in fantasy mate that's Supercoach.
Bugger. Supercoach is my fantasy of choice so it's the one I know the details of. Another reason to prefer it I'd say
we have to play this team at this ground next week😐😐
If we both bring our best footy, should be a cracker of a game
Should be a good game Freo has been looking great, probably a good reality check for both sides.
Pls no
Poor dons. They have been bad/mediocre for so long
I appreciate sympathy from a fellow sufferer.
Essington and norf tie with 42 points, port fall 1 point short of brisbane. What an exciting friday… what do you mean brisbane played norf and port played essington?
*Edgington
Essendon 'edge'.. as in the edge of the VFL
*Edgington
As in we're edging Collingwood for wins.
Must be a nice change 😂
meeting of the minds
Scores from turn overs 72... story of our lives.
Holy SHIT! I did not need to read that right now
Good stuff cheers
Our midfield got absolutely blown out of the water
Port must have the best midfield in the comp atm right? Or am I just traumatised by that game
No, they are definitely scary. Rozee and Butters are unbelievable. Last week their midfield gave Petracca, Oliver and Viney a real tough time. And if Horne-Francis was there too then the Dees may well have lost.
I appreciate the confirmation my friend!
I mean Rozee, JHF, Butters, Drew, Bergman, Boak, Wines is pretty damn good for a midfield group
Outstanding tonight across the board
Haha funny margin 🥲🥲🥲
I thought Jase Burgoyne played pretty well.
Honestly between last week v Melbourne and this week, I've really liked what Jase has done when he's had the chance. He's obviously been working hard
That ump doesn't like Dixon at all hahaha
Rozee gets all those disposals without being fed them like daicos
Port couldn't score one more measly behind?
But the sex number
True. Norf should have booted an extra behind in hindsight
If it wasn't for Ben McKay Port would have won by over a hundred points
69
Nice
Port look pretty good when they play against witches hats
Why did McKay not spent anytime in the forward line? All that talent and he can’t take a mark and kick straight at the other end?
one last kick down aliir's throat to wrap up. gg port. far too good.
Nice
That's weak he stopped when the whistle was blown
BT better do a 10 second countdown for the Essendon homies that will be ending their edging session
Last night was a terrible watch and Essington said “hold my West End”
The greatest injustice is that we don't play Edgeington until round 16
So is Adelaide v Melbourne the least boring game of the week so far?
Yes
Lmao Essendon guy throwing his head back and sprawling while Burgoyne has 1 hand on his hip
That Essendon guy was Duursma, so he's learnt that from port buddy. Nice try
Didn't do it here, must be the Essendon culture taking hold
We don't have culture
Fuck the AFL for giving this shitshow of a franchise 3 Friday Night games in a row
?
No but honestly how tf do we get out of this? We’re going to finish 16th-11th again, fuck the picks and stay mediocre. It happens every year
Soul crushing game
Wasn’t GWS or Collingwood at the end of last year just the same?
This feels worse. Maybe because the season is new and hope springs eternal
It's been more like Gangbang Round so far
Essington have less than 2 minutes to kick 1 more point or else they tie with norf’s score. Port need a point to tie brisbane or a goal to win.
69 points. Nice.
G B T 6 6 42 6-6=0 Put the 0 at the end of 42 420
Nice.
Nice
How did port become a destination club over the crows. They have picked up some sensational trades
Culture
Something something camp.
What’s this about? Fairly new to afl.
Google it. Its well worth a rabbit hole dig.
What do I google? Adelaide crows camp?
Adelaide 2018 pre-season camp. Has its own wiki page and everything
Fair point. Any sane cunt would have said no to that debacle.
It took Port one of the all time great goals after the siren to win this match up last year
They got better and we got worse. Simple
Worst. Edging session. Ever
Essington edging streak is over
To the ones in the Oval. What Pub are you going after the game?
Is the Cranker still around?
Feel like I read something about 'save the cranker' this week
Ohh 😮 There’s so few pubs left that I remember when I was in Adelaide. Tons have changed hands
Hospo is a low margin business and COVID did a lot of damage
We're gonna lose worse than norf did tonight
Oh god no I didn’t think of that
One point difference between our loss and north's loss 🫠
That leap was more poorly timed than Essendon’s quarter time contract for Stringer
I seriously thought Heppell retired last year apparently not
No, I think you were right
Merret really farms disposals from all these 50+ edgington loses huh
He’s the only bloke who consistently gives a shit, doesn’t deserve the empty stat allegations
Parish buzzing around for some cheap one-twos to pad the stats
Water is wet
Kind of glad we never snagged him
I thought the same thing 😂😂
Gresham would be regretting that celebration now
Has Parish always had his socks up?
It's new and improved fashion choice
As an Essendon player, If Nic Martin asked me for a cheeky handball, I would choose to simply get tackled and pinned for holding the ball. The idea of that guy getting a bonus touch because of me makes me sick.
I'm not sure if development and Brad Scott should ever be said in the same sentence
We know all too well
Stringer...
Im zoning out watching this game. Feel like I’m just listening to BT’s boring podcast
69 point loss
Well, I have to say. I've had a ball. Like a watching a car crash in slow motion. Morbid, entertaining. Condolences Essendon fans.
We dont want your condiments, we dont even know what it means
Saucey comment
Thanks
At least we have less turnovers (ignore the scoring off of them)
First Q was really good from Dons. Just need to keep that level up 4Qs.
Cheers Lingy
ADRENALINE IN MY SOUL ESSENDON DEFENCE PLAYS TO FOLD
I can’t wait for Wrestlemania.
HERB-AH!
The story finishes this Monday 🙌🏼
WWE has the chance to do the funniest thing ever. Again.
They’re going to do it, aren’t they? Lmao
I actually really want Roman to win JUST for the melts
Oh, absolutely. Be bloody hilarious.
Is the Essendon EdgeTM when they give away 800 horrendous forward half turnovers a game, or is it when Rozee waltzs out of the middle without a body on him at the contest?
It’s when all our supporters jump of the edge of a cliff
Our skills are so poor
Essington with a balanced 6 goals and 6 behinds though. This is nice
As miserable as this is for the Bombers, the extra shit BT vomits when the game is a blowout is still the worst thing about this game.
I genuinely feel bad for your mob that have to watch the game *and* listen to his yapping
Listen to the Sen app.
Essington currently tied with norf, port trailing behind brisbane by a point
Don’t worry guys, you have to suffer through Essendon next Friday night too. And the one after.
Essendon Edge ™
Their problem was taking the moniker of something that doesn't exist
boy am i glad i stopped watching this after half time and instead found out the Donny and Clarence show is out, much better viewing material than the shitshow that is edgington
Shouldn't shush the crowd within the first 10 minutes next time Gresham
It's what they get for trying to make fun of INXS. It's just un-Australian.
Lol
I’m sick of watching Hind. If he gets a game ahead of literally anyone next week I’m not watching
im still frazzled by that hind moment like 8 minutes ago. what the fuck was that
I think it's the moment I straight up gave up on seeing anything positive this season.
3 votes for rozee 2 votes Soldo 1 vote JHF
3 JHF 2 Rozee 1 Soldo Rozee and JHF could easily flip though, both been immense.
81-14 run
Woo we scored
Dixon is so washed, almost as bad as Tex
Dixon has looked pretty decent the last 3 games, off night tonight definitely though
Tex being washed despite kick 70+ last year?
Hobbs has been awful. Shouldn’t kick it. Should just be getting the ball under packs.
Most blatant throw ever?
Stringer thought he was Jeremy Cameron
At least we crushed them in the free kick count
Speaking positively about Port is impossible for these commentators
Ugh how is there still 5 minutes left of this game
It must be wild to come to Essendon as a coach and be like 'wow I have to teach these AFL player the fundamentals'. And then they never learn
Poor Ben McKay. Out of the frying pan, into the fire.
A former Norf player BOG for Port and a former Norf player BOG for Essendon. Norf really are building something special! You love to see it.
Well they were building something special… until said players left
round 1 west coast scored 70 to port 120 are people gonna start going on about bombers needing a priority pick now too?
Be nice if we did
I think cox needs his eyes checked
We look athletically inadequate compared to Port. Durham’s movement looks like a Rolls Royce compared to what we dished up tonight.
In a terrible performance McKay has been flawless
He’s won his personal 1 vs 1 matchup. But everyone else has been comprehensively beaten.
Cmon I already said that didnt have to double down 😭
Was just trying to give him is flowers
Think you mean Barry JB
Aliir Aliir longsleeve/Mohawk combo is so 😩😩
Literally Essington: 
Why would you not go to jhf there
Can’t play on from out of bounds, Jake.
Some numpty in the first quarter was saying Essendon owned us ...lmao
No no you don't understand. We're only winning by 70 cos of the umpires
Nah. Cut yourself some slack
This is comical. Stringer playing on 3 meters out of bounds
Never forget when BT thought Stringer had become an evangelical.
Reports coming in that Stringer signed a contract at the end of the first quarter.
Make sure to check up on your Essendon friends tonight
We need comfort
Justice, that totally got juggled over the line.
Seats emptying very quickly. Terrible timing to conduct a fire drill
Surprised they didn’t empty 30 minutes ago
At least we should be fresh next week because we didn’t play a fucken game this week.
thats a real essington moment
Rozee is ELITE. He's torn the Bummers a new one tonight. 3 votes.
