Essendon Bombers vs Geelong Cats Preview
A quick turnaround for the Dons who were blitzed by Magpies and Diacos’s (or Daici) on Anzac day, as they dust themselves off to take on the Cats at the MCG.
The Bombers head into the game as underdogs, despite much improvement this year as the Cats appeared to have resumed their winning ways, shaking off that premiership hangover.
The 15.5 point line offer from the bookies suggests we expect a close one, but Geelong has been belting teams of late and will have a decent break between games compared to Essendon.
The Cats should cover this one.
