NB's were undermanned vs Essendon..Bombers VFL team is very decent.....Laverde has been injured for 12 months and only played three games this year, both he and Langford who were Essendons first two picks in the infamous Boekhorst draft did what they liked vs our combo of kids and bananas.
Bombers have a number of good kids including Francis and Mutch who are all big developed players that were just too skilled and advanced for our lot.
Macreadie...wasnt too bad considering the amount of ball Essendon had down forward....
OShea was our best player by a long way and should be playing senior footy...
Korchek.....Luenberger was too experienced and dominated all day...
Palmer.....poor IMO....Dons had Stanton, Hocking and Howlett in their team and they had a picnic and I thought Palmer didnt show much leadership.
Gorringe...took one decent mark forward and goaled but that was about it...soft performer..
Denis...few kicks down back but didnt do anything major and just went IMO...
Harry...no supply down forward then moved into the ruck...played ok, took a few marks but lacks some smarts IMO.
Gallucci...MIA
Lebois.....see Gallucci
Jaksch..started off well then faded
Sheehan....ordinary....kicking was poor too
JGM....not bad in patches especially early... but ended up on Laverde who was too strong and smart for him...
A game to forget.....we dont have the depth Essendon do and look very small...those chemicals must still be in the water supply at Windy Hill...
