00:01
We are off and underway at Etihad Stadium.
02:00
We have the first shot at goal and it's taken by the normally reliable Breust. On this occasion, however, his snap at goal goes out of bounds on the full.
02:45
GOAL BOMBERS - Hurley goes to Bellchambers who leans back in front of Hodge and takes the mark. Bellchambers just squeezes the kick through for the first goal of the night.
03:40
SCORE GOAL - Bombers (Tom Bellchambers)
05:00
GOAL BOMBERS - Myers with some handy agility at ground level. He gathers the ball, sizes up the big sticks and goes BANG! Essendon have started well.

SCORE GOAL - Bombers (David Myers)
06:45
SCORE GOAL - Hawks (Jordan Lewis)
06:50
GOAL HAWKS - Hawthorn are on the board. They continued to work the ball forward with ruthless aggression. The half chance comes out to Lewis who bends it back beautifully!
08:30
GOAL HAWKS - Welcome back Mr Buddy Franklin! 25 metres out directly in front is where he lines it up after taking the mark. The kick is no problem and it's high fives all round.
08:34
SCORE GOAL - Hawks (Lance Franklin)
09:40
Franklin and Carlisle renewing acquaintances in a not so friendly manner.
10:20
SCORE GOAL - Bombers (Paddy Ryder)

13:30
GOAL BOMBERS - Essendon working hard and the Hawks are slack in the marking of the man. Stanton receives the short pass and slots it through for Essendon's fourth goal.
13:33

21:15
SCORE BEHIND - Bombers (Tom Bellchambers)
21:20
BEHIND BOMBERS - Bellchambers takes a contested mark inside 50. He is normally a reliable kick from 40 metres out but on this occasion he makes a liar of the writer.
22:00
