That is probably not the ideal start Dean Solomon would have envisioned for the Bombers.
Essendon have gone goalless during the opening quarter of their clash with West Coast. With 30 seconds left on the clock, it looked the Bombers were going to end up scoreless, but a behind from Archer Day-Wicks finally put them on the scoreboard.
The Eagles currently lead by 16 points.
Meanwhile, Archer May has been ruled out for the remainder of the match with a shoulder injury. The weather is also hurting both teams tonight, with incoming rain on the forecast.

West Coast lead 2.5 (17) to Essendon 0.1 (1).
