Too far for Baker now he's on to it, now he’s got it, OPEN GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Dons are in front by one point at the 8 minute mark
Re: 2024 R12, EFC v Gold Coast Suns
I am not sure Jones and Caddy can be in the same team with Langford and Wright.
I think I'd prefer Parish over Jones.
Oh crap - Just looked it up and saw that, as of Saturday, Parish is out for at least 3 weeks.

Re: 2024 R12, EFC v Gold Coast Suns
Jones has to come back in.
If that’s too tall, then Caddy has to go out.

This is no slight on Darce,but we've been getting results without him lately.Hope he can slot right back in,when he's ready!
Re: 2024 R12, EFC v Gold Coast Suns
Suns, scum, bye.
Re: 2024 R12, EFC v Gold Coast Suns
That may be true - but we only played both the bottom and second bottom sides ... and didn't win by very large margins.grassy1 wrote: ↑Mon May 27, 2024 6:07 pmThis is no slight on Darce,but we've been getting results without him lately.Hope he can slot right back in,when he's ready!
It may be important to have someone who can do their work at bounces and win clearances when we play the more competitive teams.

Ok,fair enough.Let's see well they go without him for 2 more weeks before the Bye and with him,after it.If he returns that is,......s'dreams wrote: ↑Tue May 28, 2024 11:21 amThat may be true - but we only played both the bottom and second bottom sides ... and didn't win by very large margins.grassy1 wrote: ↑Mon May 27, 2024 6:07 pmThis is no slight on Darce,but we've been getting results without him lately.Hope he can slot right back in,when he's ready!

We got slaughtered in the packs against Richmond. He and Merrett work really well at the stoppages. That was missing against the Tigesgrassy1 wrote: ↑Mon May 27, 2024 6:07 pmThis is no slight on Darce,but we've been getting results without him lately.Hope he can slot right back in,when he's ready!

Re: 2024 R12, EFC v Gold Coast Suns
I think Junior Froggy needs persistence. He’s contributed a Gail a game for the past few weeks, and appears to be getting the hang of it. He’s produces as much, if not more, than Menzie this season. Unless Jyes had performed better INT the VFL, I can’t really se why this would happen…

Re: 2024 R12, EFC v Gold Coast Suns
I do think a Goldy needs a rest. Bryza deserves promotion with good VFL form, and maybe Reid come s in for Poppy
Re: 2024 R12, EFC v Gold Coast Suns
Caddy is ill and Goldy is either carrying an injury or has been rested from intra-club match practice to extend his ability to play.
Cox has been cleared to play, so it looks like he will be returning.

Change your tips!BRAD Scott is hopeful Essendon has avoided catastrophe by implementing COVID-style protocols after a virus threw up an unexpected hurdle in the club's preparation for the clash with Gold Coast.
Scott is operating with drastically reduced staff numbers this week, but on Thursday insisted no players would be sidelined by the virus.

IN Jones, Bryan, Roberts, Menzie,
OUT Caddy (illness)
More to come I suppose.

Late Change.
Out: Goldstein (Managed)
In: Bryan
OMG - like this wasn't telegraphed once the Suns omitted Witts
FYI: In the VFL
Bryan has kicked 3 goals in the past 2 games.
He has also averaged 21 disposals, 40.2 hitouts and 2.2 tackles per game in the past 5 games.
OK. It is only the VFL, but those are sustained monster stats for a ruck.

A win today is huge.
Congrats to Bryan...not a game too soon.
BS says Goldie rolled his ankle in Q1 last week.
Go Bombers.

Re: 2024 R12, EFC v Gold Coast Suns
I am getting a little worried about the new strategy of not standing the mark... allowing the Suns players to run on
Happened 4 times so far this game.
Hasn't hurt so far, but is troublesome.
