The Moment: Rnd 10, 2025 vs Essendon

[Yankee Hotel Foxtrot]

The moment; the best, most courageous moment that caught your eye in tonight's game against Essendon.
Was it the moment that told you 'we've got this' or 'we lost this one right here'? Or was it the moment that you went 'wow....that is crazy courage'

Was it a collection of moments or perhaps one you felt had greater significance outside of the actual game's result?.. Or maybe it was a downright gobshite game, with little to crow about...but you know, you're still down to get your post count up

Too
Small

West too small. Objectively the only correct answer. Amazing

VDM sucking in both Redman and the umpire was an early moment which brought joy.

When did the fat lady sing for you? I'd have to say Ed's one hander early in the second quarter to make it a 9 goal game had me feeling pretty safe.

[GVGjr]

As Jazza said, Vandermeer sucking in both the umpire and Redman for that extra goal.

Tim English winning the ball on the goal line and tunnel balling it to Libba. Fantastic stuff.

The first time Essendon tried and failed to transition from d50.
Didn't get through for 45 minutes or more.

I said to my mate, “hang, on they don’t know what they’re doing here.” And they didn’t.

Tied with Baku’s speccy.

When the main umpire blew the whistle to start the game .
He put in more effort doing that than any bomber player all night .

[Bornadog]

When VDM sucked in the Esendon player and we got the extra goal from the free. Essendon looked dejected.

The first goal. Bont with a masterclass stoppage goal that few can kick.

From that point on they knew their mission for the night was impossible. Deep down they know they are pretenders and they just needed the great man to remind them.

Nine goals in a row and their worst fears were confirmed.

His second goal was also a beauty. To gather a contested ground ball and turn to get a 30m snap away under pressure, all in one movement - I thought he had a 'quiet' Bont game (with 25 and 2!) but that moment was pure class.

Westie showing how high Roberts is. What an elite forward hes become.

[azabob]

Ed Richards goal in the first quarter where he went left, he went right and snapped the goal in the middle of what seemed like four bomber players.

Nine moments ie; those first nine goals and giving them nothing in return
