Prepare yourself and know it's just a bump in the long road.

Nothing can prepare you for walking out of the G after losing to those pricks.

I reckon their mid season slump is here.

They have actually done well to be as competitive as they have been but they are overdue for the wheels to fall off.

It's week 6 - they obviously wanted to beat the rush.

I hope our players are not thinking the same and are expecting an easy kill cause these pr1cks give there all against us.

Imagine they purposely went out in 2nd gear against the pies to save themselves for a game they really think they were a chance in.......against us.

They lost last week because they played crap. They are ripe for the picking this week. If we lose, we'll have no one to blame but ourselves. 

I know I'm in the minority, but I've never really bought into the whole "arch enemy" concept. Malthouse said one thing that I agree with - which is that in a truly national competition, with no or limited zones, various drafts etc. these old territorial battles are a thing of the past. If the players are more "pumped" for this game than any other one, then something is wrong.

Our players are smarter than that, particularly with Bolton cracking the whip, and I don't think the Essendon players are smart enough to plan for the next game.  They thought they were in with a chance against the struggling Magpies and the loss will really get them thinking about how far off the pace they are.

Of course, we have to find a way to kick a winning score.

We'll win easy but not by a lot.

The Bummers are a week to week proposition and are in survival mode until end of season - that's about as far as their planning probably goes. We need to go out there fully pumped and prepared to put in 100% for 4Qs. If we do that and really pressure them then we should win OK.

A loss to this mob is unacceptable.

I was there when Lloyd and Judd clashed head's.

But yes they will be incredibly ravenous this time around. quick trip onto BB and Bigfooty show they do not rate us at all.

Remember it was 30 Degrees and 90% humidity, hard big ground and a long flight back. 7 days vs 6 Days helps us though.

Big test for Bolton here to get them up and playing for 4 quarters.
