Marvel Stadium, Saturday, April 3rd at 4.35pm
Surely they have had a rev up. Surely they’re going to snap out of it. Nope. No. That feeling of waiting for the light to switch on; for the players to wipe the sleep out of their eyes kept lingering. But the red and black carpet just kept being rolled out.
Almost like a carbon copy of the Melbourne game, the Bombers were on the board in a major way within a minute. That was just a taste. It felt like a full several minutes before a disposal was registered for the Saints. The centre clearances were like a drive-through service for nimble Essendon midfielders – except for when McKernan was giving away free kicks for them. It was a bruise-free as it gets. The midfield looked completely flat footed.
A couple of Billings majors in the first term – one of the few who seemed to come ready to play – and the quarter time margin of 19 points felt extremely generous. However, another six goals from the Dons (this time with only one in reply) confirmed Saints’ fans’ worst nightmares. Some of the faithful exited the arena at half time.
