Gumbleton

...when is he going to be playing?

Wasn't he supposed to be ready to go this year?

Wahts is going on?

Re: Fyfe

If you remember correctly, in that same year's trade week, we got pick 16 for Lovett & pick 33 for Nash. Then that turn coat prick McPhee packs up & leaves after trade week without giving us a chance to trade him. If Lovett was worth 16 & Nash 33, then surely Freo would have given us pi...

Re: Honestly...get the f*** over it..

James Hird hardly carried himself with the distinction people come to expect from him! Basically stabbed Knights in the back... Yeah, and I would've handed him the knife if I had the chance.. Haha..I'm sure many would have. Personally I would have preferred if he came out said 'yes, I am interested...

Re: Fletch

Sorry to break it to you fellas..but McIntosh was the difference. He missed a goal that all professional footballers should get. Unequivocally that was THE reason we won...the rest of the talk is just conjecture and basically who played well in what (should) have been a losing game. Certainly not a...

Ballantyne

Should be suspended for bringing the game into disrepute... He is the epitome of what is wrong with the game. You'd think you were watching the Italian football team... Scarlett taps his chin and he goes down like a sack of spuds...I could not believe it! Pathetic...it is laughable actually and the ...

Re: Dane Swan

Dane Swan is dead set one of the most overrated footballers getting around! I reckon he is not even top 5 midfielders League or filth? If Filth you are a f****** idiot If league what do you make him sixth? We havent got one in the top 20 so he is doing pretty well Either way the guy is a super star...

Re: The Wire

My husband actually bought this on DVD on the strength of the awesome reviews but we still haven't gotten around to watching it. It's in the pile of shame with True Blood and a few other shows. Reading this thread it sounds like it's definitely worth a view. Oh, and Hi again. Sorry for dropping of ...

Re: Where has Filthy gone and will he be back?

I logged on this morning for the first time in a long time hoping to find a nice summary of all Essendon related news items from today's media publications, and then I realised Filthy hasn't posted for awhile. I understand there were some issues regarding Filthy over the summer but does anyone know...

Old favourites

I'm a new poster on here but have been a passive observer for quite some time...I'm hoping if someone can tell me where all of these old favourites are (seeing as I haven't seen them on the site for ages):

Keri
Essendon4Eva
Gatsid
Nifty
Cameron Clayton
