Match report: Dons shred Blues to put heat on Lions
August 27, 2016 4:48 PM
ESSENDON could avoid claiming the wooden spoon after a Joe Daniher masterclass steered the Bombers to a 24-point win over Carlton.
The Dons secured their third win of the year with a comprehensive victory over the Blues at the MCG on Saturday, which drew them level on wins with the 17th-placed Brisbane Lions.
Lions are ahead on percentage (61.5 to 61) but if they lose to St Kilda at Etihad Stadium on Sunday by roughly eight goals or more they will be relegated to bottom position.
It would see the Bombers avoid finishing last for the first time since 1933, despite the season-long suspensions to 12 of their senior players for anti-doping breaches.
