Good team spirit shown there - almost everyone got around the lad after he kicked the goal. |

Atu (R2) great tackle. Bombers VFL players sooking about the decision, give away a 50, easy goal. _________________ Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down. |

And our best break from the centre all day gives Wells a set shot. |

Quaynor did beautifully at the back, there. |

Quaynor does well again. All of a sudden, he looks like he could play senior footy this year. |

Looks like this game is unfolding as I feared it would.
People shouldn't be to surprised as our VFL form always appeared woeful in the preseason and only continued into the regular season when we barely got over the line against Coburg who won 1 game in 2018.
The reasons for today would be varied and range from loss of solid VFL performers in the off season (Hore, Borthwick, McLarty etc), injuries to some of our more promising junior talent in Sier, Murphy, T.Brown and Appleby, relying on two raw Irish imports to provide key position depth, loss of Dunn, insisting on using Goldsack up forward (not sure about today) and an overall injury list 4 or 5 deeper than the Essendon opposition.
Given we often see a correlation between a strong VFL team and successful AFL season it is a bit of a concern but we now have a rather long injury list again and it would appear our depth isn't as adequate to cover for it at VFL level this season for some of the reasons outlined above. _________________ He's mad.

Essendon will kick a goal from a mark in the goalsquare following another pointless turnover in midfield. |

13.9 to 7.11, at the 14 minutes mark of the final term. Essendon will win this easily, now. |

Good goal by Sam Ralph and it's just 28 points the difference, again. |
