[pmac21]

So will we get fired up Essendon playing for careers or bumbed out Bombers just waiting for the season to end?

Think they just want the year to end. They will lie down and take what's given to them.

At least we don't have to play a fresh coach and a team with something to prove again haha.

Poor Rutten that toxic club is destroying a good man.

Bloody oath man agree 100%.

Wanted to throw my arm around the poor bloke. Druggos are going to basically kill him mentally it's tragic.

[Francois Jackson]

who the hell is Hind anyway. Who the stuff does he think he is.

Truck must be thinking bloody hell it was a good gig at Punt Road. Paid well treated fairly.

That club is a disgrace. They will crush Clarkos legacy.

Caro and Eddie reckon Rutten will be cut tomorrow.

Depends now whether Rutten will see out their final game and coach on Saturday night or if Giansiracusa will take over.

Lloyd said its political.  absolutely NFI the lot of em, all the way from sheeds down to jabba.

The best thing is hearing all these fools waffle on, and still i'm yet to hear one tell us that dudoro needs to go.

That bloke has 9 lives.

Actually Frankie I heard then say when they were waffling on about the "board coupe" that Duddoro has had a falling out with head of Footy Mahoney. So one of then likely has to go. I think we both know who it will be

haha yep. The dud lives to fight another day.

I only saw the link OER put up. In any case i probably would have switched the channel if i was watching it live.

Full credit to him for holding his job, though the real story is the sheep like the ceo, sheedy, lloyd hird, supporters who claim he is so great after not winning a final in 20 years.

No matter what happens, I'm gonna enjoy the footy this weekend. Richmond v Essendon. Dead rubber. Bigger trials to come.

Forget about their poo they've got going on. Richmond v Essendon, an old time showdown. Finals to come.

Get the beers in. Hope someone kicks 10!

Essendon v Richmond Preview

Laurence Rosen
SEN
19 August 2022

While Saturday’s clash between rivals Essendon and Richmond doesn’t really have much riding on it, there’s plenty of intrigue attached to it considering the week the Bombers have had.

While at the time of writing it is still unclear whether Ben Rutten will be coaching this week, there’s a genuine watch on how Essendon responds after a turbulent week following their 84-point hammering at the hands of Port Adelaide.

For the Tigers, their finals fate is essentially sealed – they’ll either finish seven or eight depending on other results.

It’s no stretch to say Essendon is a club in turmoil right now as they deal with a change of president, uncertainty over the coaching and a playing group that turned in two successive listless performances.

Michael Hurley’s farewell game will provide a welcome distraction and could provide a lift for the team, but we still expect Richmond to win this one easily as they sharpen up for finals.

Tip: Richmond by 37 points.
