Danish League 22/23

Thanks Esbjerg games is always welcome!

Just watched Odense's last game and everytime I watch them I get sad that trine Pedersen is retiring. She is such a joy to watch

Yeah I was thinking exactly the same. But ofc motivation has to be there. And I am also so pleased to see Elver finding back to her old level that it helps a bit. And Larissa also seems to be making progress.

Just hope that Højlund and Althea will be back this season too. If they are ready that is ofc, but I think Ikast has a much bigger chance if they dont.

Esbjerg - Silkeborg full game (960mb): https://www.mediafire.com/file_premium/1oarql62x24wgl7/ESB_SIL.mp4/file

Sad that Silkeborg was in the play offs when they then ended up with so many injuries. Think it would actually have been more fun to see Horsens there. Also since their homecourt and spectators are way better.

judging from their performance in the qualification playoff they would have brought little to no value to the  real playoffs. SønderjydskE was the team that actually got the most point in the "losers" playoff

Ok but with the goals Horsens had, they must also be way more dissappointed. They wouldn’t have been if they were in the real play offs.

Anol wrote:No, I agree, they can't be happy. And would horsens have lost to esbjerg by 42 goal aggregate, no they wouldn't. Would horsens have gotten a single point in the group if they had replace Silkeborg, probably not

No probably not but I would still count them more interesting as a possible surprise and with enthusiastic spectators. Its been hard to stay awake during most of Silkeborgs matches. Understandable because of the injuries on key players but not good publicity for the play offs.

Only if Reistad gets injured before the game. I doubt they will have any problems against Odense

Oh God....I just LOVE YOU, Dofer    

Thanks a million times

Thank you Mr007! Céline Dion sang about "The Power Of Love", but who will sing about the power of Esbjerg?

Dofer deserves a statue for what is good in life. We need such statues for the coming generations, to appreciate life NOW, and it's not so hard to bring a smile to one, that like water rings, spread the very same smile to 14 others I read somewhere

Dofer make us smile and appreciate life. Thanks a lot  

Odense very well knew that meeting a F4 team was ofc way out of their league

It helped when Kirkely reminded his girls that they are not totally helpless and utterly trash, but able to play handball after all (well, it was in danish, I might have misunderstood ofc), getting the score only 4 goals behind somehow, but it was just an illusion ofc. Odense is trash against a F4 team, always been, so the excitement Dofer was hoping for, just died...

Congratz Esbjerg

I guess it will change next year when you get the very best trainer in the handball world
