Re: Changing the Club logo??

.... Leave the logo alone. Blow up the pokies. People have a choice when it comes to the pokies you know. Addiction and choice don't go hand in hand though. Some can walk away, many can't. There is plenty of help out there. The club cannot be blamed for people becoming addicts. A little personal re...

Re: Round 15: Essendon V Freo Shockers

Draper under an injury cloud and needs to pass a medical test and pull up OK from training. I wouldn't be surprised if Bryan comes in if Draper doesn't make it and the Dockers name Darcy. Perhaps yet another "injury during warmup" requiring an emergency to replace a much shorter player. I...

Re: Changing the Club logo??

If our modest success so far this year means that the CEO and board have nothing better to do than to f*** around with the logo... FMD They would be better off focusing on the club's reliance on pokies. It it not only embarrassing that Essendon is only one of 4 AFL teams with pokies (190 in total, ...

Re: Changing the Club logo??

Who do they mean by stakeholders? Those Essendonian wankers?

I don't mind if the club changes the logo but the suggestion that fans are uncomfortable with the war plane is ridiculous.

Re: Round 15: Essendon V Freo Shockers

Pretty big game in terms of ladder position. Those inclusions would be handy with Fremantle likely to have Darcy & Brodie back.

Re: Big Ange Postecoglou

Just for the record in Scotland,I go for Queen’s Park. Have done for years,before they turned Pro. Not quite ready for Premier League yet,after making a Hash of the final stages of the season. The SFA can breathe easy it doesn’t need Hampden Park just yet! I heard that Queen's Park will be using Ha...

Sure does.
Desperately looking for excuses - is it because we regularly bench AFL listed players because of managed minutes?
Holding all 3 AFL emergencies over on Sunday may not have helped.

Re: Kyle Languid

Interesting first page of this thread with Begley & Francis mentioned... :|

It's good to have Kyle playing where he should be playing more often but also embracing his ability to be flexible.

Re: R13 Essendon v Carlton

Great performance and win. Set up with our pressure in the first half and then that burst in the third was magnificent. Merrett moving forward and placing the trust in the kids for the second half was a great move. Hobbs & Caldwell were outstanding. Nick Martin is quickly approaching elite stat...

Re: Mid Season and End of Report 2023

Geelong are also beatable. Especially this year, the way they've played. We'll be better switched on in Q1 next time. The trick will be to play Kardinia Park best. We will be lucky to get 50 Essendon supporters in there. Going to be tough but could be an all time great win considering our recent re...

Re: Mid Season and End of Report 2023

So long as we don’t go ZIP - 4 in our next block of games(start with 4). Fremantle are Beatable at Perth Stadium and whilst we shouldn’t assume a Win at Home against the Crows is a lock,we MUST NOT drop that one. Either side of that is tough.We’ll be up against a Port side in red hit form and chock...
