If we don’t win this by over 30 points, I will be worried about our chances in the finals. I can see no excuse for not winning this by more than 5 or 6 goals.

Finals time: the spuds are thinking about sucking suds, while the studs are thinking about [can't think of rhyming word here]

Congrats Josh, You are a legend. Id love us t destroy these pretenders by about 77 points , but will probably have to settle for around 33 points. Just win, NO more stuffing around, terminate these pricks, and shove it up the commentators arses. Go Woods !!

We need to Keep them below 70 points and kick 100 plus to show that we’re back on track.

Our defensive profile means we are actually worse than the Bombers right now. That said, we need a big win for our confidence because the Bummers have put a big cue in the rack tonight. A loss and it's all but season over.

^Agree Damian. Our defence has been compromised with the loss of both Moore and Murphy. We need to see a major lift from our midfield, both offensively and defensively. More midfield pressure to ensure that our defence is never overburdened.
I think keeping Essendon to a low score is even more important than kicking a super massive score ourselves. Defence is the main area of the game that we need to radically improve before going into finals.

Confident which means I will be disappointed. Sorry all. My fault.
