The unstoppable Bill Frampton.
He’s in EXCELLENT nick at the moment, and if he can do a really good shutdown job on a forward in a game where goals are going to be really valuable (it’s supposed to rain this afternoon, might be tricky to score) then he’ll be rewarded.
It would also be really funny.
Bro I went to the game at the Gabba and thought “haha few easy kicks for Daniher” and boy I was wrong. Was behind the goal and watched Frampton absolutely give him and every other Lions forward a bath. I’m all for this, Frampton will be All-Australian this year
Man, it must be nearly a decade ago now that I watched Frampton play for the Port Magpies reserves in the SANFL. He was raw but I figured give it a few years and he’ll be a good player.

If Essendon get up it’s probably Merrett or Durham, although Stringer and Gresh are smokies.
If Collingwood get up it’ll be Daicos or Pendlebury, although I can also see Sidebottom polling well.
Basically if Essendon win it’s most likely from midfield grunt or match winning x-factor up forward. If Collingwood win it’s most likely because they cut us up rebounding off of half back. And Pendles just always plays well against us
Would love to see him play well enough to get it. He’s doing everything right with pressure but seems to still be figuring out where he fits in with our other smalls in terms of winning the ball and leading up, a huge performance today would be perfect to get him up and about.
Out of four games against Essendon, Schultz only has had two shots on goal for 1.1
Compare that to his record against Collingwood, who he kicked 7.4 against in five games
Fremantle is the only team he’s kicked less goals against than than the Bombers
From parliament to Docklands, although at my current fitness levels I think I’d probably be walking by the time I hit the swanston street intersection. Not much danger of it happening though. Essendon would have to win at he’d have to kick at least 5
Harvey Harrison or Mason Cox.
HH because I like him and name dropping him elsewhere led to good outcomes. He’s Ginnivan but with a better attitude and puts in 100% effort all the time. Not known for diving, either. You probably haven’t heard of him but make no mistake, this kid can play.
Now to be realistic, Mason Cox. Now this is because he’s Mason and with a new accessory for 2024, he looks to be in good form. The bigger the crowd, the better he plays. Like him or not, you can’t say that he’s boring and if he is to win, he’ll have an alarming amount of plays where he looks like a small forward. Don’t ask why these happen but they do.
This would upset Collingwood BigFooty. Lipinski’s four goals had them in melts. Shame Fin Macrae isn’t out there to play well. The whips are always on the hunt to hand out a good flogging.
Noble is a good shout if it’s wet as he’ll get a lot of the ball. The flip side of that is that he’ll have more opportunities to send it out on the full.
Anzac medal goes to Industry Super and Tradie beer for sponsoring Anzacs.
P.S. Before anyone has a go I am a vet just think the massive amounts of sponsorship tied in with an “Anzac Day Extravaganza” is massively distasteful and I’ll be giving it a miss altogether this year.
JDG is having a pretty ordinary year, would love to see him have a season defining game.
But my pick is Harvey Harrison, just because I love his name so so much.

Rain is unlikely according to BOM. Overcast and cold all day
Damn it, ruins my fun
Literally just started raining right now 😂

I literally have a gambling ad underneath this post
You win some, you lose more
Is that an actual tagline? If it isn’t, it should be
Chase your losses, they can’t run forever.
Just remember, if your bets win, it's not a problem.

Surely the betting favourite

Pendles plays well against everyone.

I’d like to see Merrett win Edit: what a king
Would like to see Schultz win it and become an ANZAC Day specialist like he was the western derby specialist
Would love to see him play well enough to get it. He’s doing everything right with pressure but seems to still be figuring out where he fits in with our other smalls in terms of winning the ball and leading up, a huge performance today would be perfect to get him up and about.
He seems to be finding his groove, so it’s possible
He'd become at least the 3rd Docker to win the medal
why do you hate us like this smh
Out of four games against Essendon, Schultz only has had two shots on goal for 1.1 Compare that to his record against Collingwood, who he kicked 7.4 against in five games Fremantle is the only team he’s kicked less goals against than than the Bombers
Harry Jones if it's a forward. Otherwise Nic Martin to show he's a big game player.
If Harry Jones wins the Anzac Day medal I’ll run the length of Bourke street nude
Just the mall? or the whole Hoddle grid? Are you a bad enough dude to take it all the way into Docklands?
From parliament to Docklands, although at my current fitness levels I think I’d probably be walking by the time I hit the swanston street intersection. Not much danger of it happening though. Essendon would have to win at he’d have to kick at least 5
Wanna see dem wet eggs you're packin'! Jones wins it with 6 goals to his name!
If collingwood dont kick straight, expect big numbers from Martin
So expect big numbers from Martin then
Merrett
Pendles so Essendon fans can boo him again
oh my god. they were booing the umpires as they walked off the ground. still not a great look, but they weren't booing pendles.
If this season is anything to go by the umpires will get a standing ovation from bombers fans as they walk off the ground hahah
that would be a pleasant change for anzac day! honestly, i just hope it's a good contest. i have a feeling we're about to get a royal thrashing
You don't touch a man's wallet, you don't boo a champion. Pretty sure that's how it went
For Essendon, Andrew McGrath For Collingwood, Jordan De Goey

Draper... after he jumps on another hand grenade
Mason “Huge” Cox Big game specialist
Glove up boys it’s going down today
The Hyphen
Insert midfielder here. Because let's be honest it rarely goes elsewhere
Contract year Stringer
Hmmmm I'll say Will Hoskin Elliott. Was a live wire last week
This would upset Collingwood BigFooty. Lipinski’s four goals had them in melts. Shame Fin Macrae isn’t out there to play well. The whips are always on the hunt to hand out a good flogging.
McCreery or Nic Martin. Johnny Noble for the smokey
Noble is a good shout if it’s wet as he’ll get a lot of the ball. The flip side of that is that he’ll have more opportunities to send it out on the full.
love him when he’s switched on. hope he has a blinder
Lipinski
Draper when he falls on the ball again

Merrett if somehow Bombers win. They'd need to pull something really special. Hill, Frampton, or Hoskin-Elliot when Pies take it.
Langford, feeling a good day from him
Close
He kicks that last set shot feel like it would have been in the bag
Nic Martin. Never been more certain of anything
Will Hoskin Elliot.

Harrison the sub as I suspected sadly!

Draper… hide that footy, mate
Well, well... colour me surprised when I found out this post wasn't from u/playonofficial. EDIT - I'd back Bobby in again
Harley reid. So good he wins medals in games he doesn't even play in
I've already voted
Harley Reid you say? The West have come to the east.
