The Tullamarine freeway was at its exciting best on Good Friday with the Bombers running out handsome 58-point winners over a listless North Melbourne.
It was part of the ‘Kick for the Kids’ Good Friday AFL Match , to raise funds to support the work of The Royal Children’s Hospital.
‘Better than the AFL players!’
The North Melbourne Kangaroos will feature in Good Friday AFL action again, as they take on the Essendon Bombers. This is The Roar’s guide to streaming the action online, or watching it on TV.
The Roos are back on the Good Friday stage for the third time, and face their third different opponent after the AFL predictably sought a #BigClub for their latest marquee slot following the disappointment of last year’s clash between the Kangas and the Saints.
It might be a bold statement after just four rounds of the season, but I’m sticking by it.
In what promises to be a match full of curiosity and intrigue, the resurgent Essendon Bombers take on the upstart Brisbane Lions at the theatre that is the MCG. Join The Roar from 2:10pm (AEST) for live scores and updates of the game.

Essendon coach John Worsfold believes his players felt the release of mounting pressure before their breakthrough win over Melbourne, not after it.

Match result: The Essendon Bombers have defeated the Melbourne Demons by 18 points at the Melbourne Cricket Ground to gain their first win of the 2019 season.
Oh boy. I doubt this is what the folks at AFL HQ had in mind when they scheduled this match for the third Friday night of the season, but I’ll bet they – and their partners at Channel Seven – are delighted with the outcome nonetheless.
When Kyle Langford and Matthew Guelfi both bizarrely left the field of play after the former gave away an unnecessary free kick in front of the interchange bench on Saturday, they were simply doing what all Essendon people wanted to do; stop watching the game and run away.
Match result: The St Kilda Saints have defeated the Essendon Bombers at Marvel Stadium by 11 points.
If you had have told me a week ago that I would be nervous about Essendon’s clash with St Kilda, I would have dismissed your comment as gentle ribbing.
Essendon’s full AFL preseason means their Round 1 disaster is particularly worrying for former Melbourne and Swans coach Paul Roos.
Essendon coach John Worsfold doubts the pre-season hype over the Bombers has affected his players, but will work on every aspect of their game after a woeful first-up effort on Sunday.
The anticipation is already building. The excitement is palpable. Rarely have we seen a match of the round like it.
