| 4-1 | 2-3 | 1-4 |
Essendon had their best win of the season last weekend beating Sydney 71-63 in an absolute nailbiter. Nic Martin, Andrew McGrath and Mason Redman all exceeded 30 disposals in the game while Zac Merrett kicked 2 goals from 19 touches including 4 clearances.
The Bombers had 10 centre clearances to the Swans 5, a statline they have struggled to impress with so far this season. Despite the victory there will be some talk about how they let a 39 point lead slip to 8 at the siren, against a team that couldn’t kick a goal to save their lives and were giving out 50m penalties like lollies.
Essendon have won all 3 games at Marvel so far this season but will need to improve on their scoring if they are any hope to continue the winning trend. They average just 79 pts per game in 2025 hitting triple digits only once in 8 games.
