Game Day Crows break the 2017 MCG hoodoo against the Bombers

[WetCrow1991]

Half of Essendon's goals are from frees that weren't there.

 

[MatthewB]

How was that not HTB?

because an Essendon player was tackled and not an Adelaide player

 

[Cromulant]

It really is not impressive, leaking so many points.

An average side that is injury hit.

It's been fine, jesus christ

 

[MRB37]

Essendon have looked ok since the sting has gone out of the game. This is all nothing stuff

Reminiscent of 2022 a bit where he'd be down by 40 and Nicks would "pull the lever" for us to go offensive in the final 10 minutes cause we had nothing to lose at that point.

 

[Burtonsgottago]

Need to tighten up down back. Can’t have both Laird and Milera.

 

[Mr_Moogle]

Sweet kick TT

 

[Donkey Magoo]

Filthy is very good at football.

 

[Redleg Crow]

This forward line can win a flag

 

[Cromulant]

Need to tighten up down back. Can’t have both Laird and Milera.

Lairds been good, Milera good to HT but ordinary 2nd half.

 

[MRB37]

It's been fine, jesus christ

I'd say the main difference is just Essendon more efficient this quarter inside 50. They've generally matched us in that area this quarter, we've just done a better job restricting them on I50's this week. 60-44 this week, much better result than last week.

 

[Smart Fella]

It's been fine, jesus christ

Agree, so much better supporting a team getting a well deserved, comfortable victory.

 

[Redleg Crow]

Wasn't that a throw by them in the goal square there?

Yep

 

[WetCrow1991]

Nice to win at the MCG after so many years.

 

[Redleg Crow]

Reminiscent of 2022 a bit where he'd be down by 40 and Nicks would "pull the lever" for us to go offensive in the final 10 minutes cause we had nothing to lose at that point.

Yep

 

[Moonwatcher]

Promising that Draper can find the ball.

 

[WetCrow1991]

Bombers too weak in 1 on 1. Feee kick.

 

[Cromulant]

Junk time.

Love it

 

[Scorpus]

Won every quarter now

 

[Redleg Crow]

Don’t worry about the Essendon score. We destroyed them

 

[Moonwatcher]

West Coast's score was 162 in 2013. Probably won't get there.

 

[SugarShane]

Now winning the quarter as well. Not at all bothered they've kicked 94 when we've kicked 10 goals more and won every quarter.

Cue is in the rack and we still have them covered.

 

[Mr_Moogle]

I love a sad Scott.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Don’t worry about the Essendon score. We destroyed them

Does limit our percentage a little.

 

[Scorpus]

Won every quarter now

Dammit
