I think we all better get used to losing because the only game that we have a chance of winning in the next month is against our bogey team Port Adelaide at Etihad. After losing to Fremantle here, I don't give us much of hope of beating PA here either.

I thought this was one of Knight's more impressive performances as a a coach after a loss. At least he tried some different things after we got absolutely thumped in the second quarter. There were some disappointing aspects such as having Hille ruck against Natanui and Cox against Ryder. Should have...

Haven't posted for awhile but really need to vent my frustration. Alarm bells were ringing when we got smashed in our Round 1 NAB Cup match. Ruins my whole weekend when the Bombers lose and it depresses the shit out of me. Let me preface this by saying that my mind was saying that we would lose by o...

You know the drill though Splodge, they're going to blame the lopsided free kick count for their loss today. I will say this to the filth, maybe if they paid the holding the ball and incorrect disposal decisions today (they only pay the throw when they feel like it sometimes), we might have tripled ...

Lucky Jetta kicked the first of those goals... he was pretty sloppy today! I can't remember what quarter it was but he should have turned to face goals to take a shot. Instead he runs backwards and passes it to a less advantageous situation. What that tells me is the complete lack of confidence - J...

What a contrast to the same time last year? Last year I thought we were going nowhere. Watching Collingwood and Essendon today, I believe Essendon has so much more upside to come than Collingwood. So how things have changed in a year. But jeez they made it hard on us, we should have buried them in t...

I will fully accept that he's out of form and I probably feel everybody has written him off in the media after a handful of games. He needs a lot more weeks to come good than that and then people can start making their minds up. Scotty has been so important to our structure over the years, I think h...

Not only did we have desire but our pace absolutely killed them tonight. Our players worked their butts off tonight and it really pissed me off the way some of the Carlton goals came from their players cheating ie refusing to follow their direct opponents and getting easy possessions when we turned ...

Go you Bombers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You're completely wrong- they're not STILL bitches, they're OUR bitches

Yes disappointing end to the season but at least this season has convinced me that we have some solid young talent coming through. I was sceptical about Knight's appointment and thought we had to select somebody not involved with our club who would be able to be more objective with our playing stock...

Mckinley going to be a very good player for West Coast but he was kicking everything today. What I found frustrating was has beens like Fletcher, Braun and Lynch shat all over us today. That attempted tackle by Lloyd on Lynch was one hell of a squib effort but that prick goes on to kick the goal. I ...

I would like Essendon Football club to make a statement by trading Lovett despite being a big fan. I don't care if we lose in the short term but I think it will have a positive effect on our young playing group. They'll know that they have to give 100% to EFC and anything less is unacceptable. He's ...

Those last 5 minutes showed why. The good players kick those goals. No guts. No nerve. No application. No anything except a shitload of wasted talent and waste of space at EFC. And he lets down the other 18 fit blokes left but also the other 20 injured team mates. f*** off you poof. :evil: The last...

Had an opportunity today to prove that he can play senior football and blew it again. Will get another game next week because we are missing so many players injured. I used to be a big fan of Dyson but I've long since given up on him.

Gave them too much of a start. Bowden epitomises why we hate them. No - the umpires gave them too much of a headstart along with Scott Lucas; first three goals from free kicks that weren't there. Kane Johnson - dives into Slattery's legs and gets a free kick. DISGRACEFUL! I was really very upset wi...

Sometimes when players piss you off enough, you eventually get tunnel vision - you only see/remember their mistakes. For me, the passage of play that I most remember is the missed tackle on Collier(spelling?) which led to him kicking the goal. This has happened a couple of times now in the last few ...

Anyone listen to this whingeing c*** tonight?...every Bomber free kick was soft and needed to be looked at by the umpires and rules committee. Yep, really started to piss me off considering that Brisbane power forwards ie Lynch,Bradshaw thrived on free kicks from holds that they always seemed to in...

Yep Lucas was absolutely torn apart by Grover last night - I found it very frustrating to watch especially when he was putting hands in the back. He should really have come to terms with this rule by now. I knew he was in for a shocker though at the start of the game, when we must have kicked it to ...

OK we all agree 100% that Dwayne Russell is a wanker and known anti- Essendon identity. What really pissed me off was when Welsh was on the ground with his head over the ball and Sandilands slid in with his knees. "Nothing to answer for" - f*** off Dwayne Russell, whatever happened to prot...

And Robbie, I would just like to add that the next time I see Pratt that I would like to see him behind bars and not enjoying the pathetic cheating and soft c**** that call themselves Carlton Football Club. Hell, if it's good enough for Wheatley, I'm sure it's good enough for Pratt. PS - No BBQs for...
