'The squib' Kerridge head over the footy and almost gets it kicked off for a free and calmly slots the sealer.

Some people on here have no idea. Kerridge is the last person you should be calling a squib.

Great game, what I saw of it. This year the OS streaming has been crap compared to other years. Chrome won't even load it here. I had messages on two laptops and my phone saying I had to be outside Australia and the stream wasn't available in my region (after watching two previous rounds and half this game).

I sent them a message asking for my money back. You others who said the stream was shit should do the same. Otherwise they will just do nothing.

Great hard-fought game by the boys. I gave them no chance, I will admit but I don't care.

Two BIG highlights for me this week.
Murphy's game after he wasted a lot of possies last week, topped off with two sensational goals.
Williamson.

Lesser highlights:
The back six won their game pretty well.
SPS had a couple of super touches
We played wet weather footy like they used to in the sixties and kept the footy moving forward at all costs.
We're 1-2, which is better than last year's start or at least equal to it.

Lowlights:
SPS handed off to Gibbs early on for a point. Gibbs has to let the kids have a ping if they are inside fifty. The older heads have to learn to trust the newbys.
I missed all the second half goals in between trying to resurrect the stream on various devices.
No song.

Bring on next week, hopefully with a better stream, even though I will be in Guadalajara.

This is our earliest first win for a few years isn't it?

Yes! Essendon* are a basket case.

Yep my bad!

One more then will be fine!

Williamson looked at home at AFL level. Coupled with marchbank, doc, plow, simmo.
Very very solid down back. SPS you're about to become a star kid

Fantastic!!
Just love beating the bombers.
Great games from the core midfield this week. Weather suited Kruzer and murphy and gibbs sensational. Thought our backline was brilliant - with White playing the best game I have seen from him for a long time. In the old days we would have fluffed those dinky chip kicks - don't think we missed one today.
Levi played well - just wished he could have held those 2 marks in the goals square. Our forwards are still the weak spot. Silvagni played well early but our midfield kicked every single goal. Having said that the forward pressure was good.
Just a good feeling to get a win.

EAD'ssendon.

great pic!!

Watson did nothing.. It's a different game without drugs

Reminded me a bit of late in 2004 when we beat them in the wet playing a similar style. Big outsiders that day too.

Was a lot like the first time we played them last year too. Was a windy day and we built a wall at half forward that they couldn't get through. We struggled to score though.

Good win but weather helped us
We our too slow but because of the conditions the bumbers couldn't spread as well
Keep playing the kids Bolts
Williamson looks good
Mac Looks good
PS looks good
Give Polson and Fisher a crack as swell

The crap that the media went on about the win against the hawks pissed me off
No end
They should have done a Cronulla and admitted their guilt earlier
But arrogance bites you on the arse
Anyway judging the Hawks stellar form the win was shit anyway

Can someone pass the salt?
