One positive is that I get to spend most of the weekend enjoying myself before I have to face reality.

The Friday night losses are a shocker, you spend all weekend wondering when are the going to call the media conference.

What has happened to Matt Kennedy????

What has happened to Matt Kennedy???? 

He, along with most of the list, seems to be enjoying a rather fallow period.

What has happened to Matt Kennedy???? 

Playing injured IMO.
Spent a lot of time on the bench getting worked on last week.
Played with a strapped calf
Saw him limping significantly at one point during the game, which i called as an injured calf.

Shouldn't have played him, or Cripps.
Shouldn't have played Durdin the week before.
Playing all these injured players doesn't do us any favours.

OBrien (omitted)->Binns
Cottrell (omitted)->Hewett
Boyd (omitted)->Cowan
Silvagni (int)-> One of Lemmey OKeefe Mirkov Akuei (or not bring in any additional hieght and Young covers ruck)

Watching Essendon play Nth and not impressed, same soft outside rubbish brand as per usual and the only way we will lose to these muppets is if we dont turn up and play the same soft bruise free rubbish they are playing.
Yes they have pace but they have nothing notable down back and are relying on non specialist forward players like Langford to kick them a winning score. This is a game I feel overly confident about us winning, they wont make the eight imho and as bad as we are at the minute we have more high calibre talent then they do and I can see us rolling the bombers by 5-6 goals.
We probably wont make finals but we can help prevent EFC making the eight and I'll take that as positive out of 2023..

We might struggle in the ruck if Pitto isn't back, I presume he'll be after the bye and it would be silly to prematurely risk a ruck with a fractured hand.

I expect us to pressure their runners, might be another big job coming for Cincotta on Stringer, and for Weiters, McGovern and Kemp I hope to see a night out on intercept marks because CheatsFC tend to do even less damage than us when it comes to possessions.

If we can actually kick it near the side of the barn I don't see CheatsFC stopping Charlie or BigH.

They got home by a bee's dick in the end against North.
We can beat them.
