74,500. Not bad considering there were a lot of empty seats in our members reserve in the Olympic Stand. Game had have been played Saturday afternoon would have drawn another 10K. When we're 1st Vs 4th (like Collingwood Vs Carlton last week) we'll get 90K. Yes the game was shit after half time and c...

ticketek has NOTHING available in the AFL Members now. SOLD OUT

I guess they might end up selling some standing room but i'd be getting there early if you're an AFL member without a reserved seat.

Looks like a crowd in excess of 80K now.

And in 1993 our fixture went: Carlton X2 Collingwood X2 Sydney X2 Bulldogs X2 West Coast X2 Same as this year Only difference being 1993 we played Geelong twice this year we played Richmond twice. (of these we won 1 and lost 1 vs Geelong and this year did the same Vs Richmond). 2nd time around our f...

Wonder what Hirdy will do when we win in Perth against the Eagles?

Wave his jacket above his head????? Nah been done before. When did that happen? Oh yeh 1993

tickets will sell out for next two weeks with HUGE games Vs Carlton and Collingwood. Carlton do the unthinkable and pull off a win Vs Pies tomorrow and we'll see close to 85K+ next Saturday night. Still Premium tickets in P2 on sale at the moment for the Coll Vs Essendon but i'd get in early if you ...

The worse for me was when he wasted time and ACTED as though he was going to give the ball back to Hibberd only to stand cm away from it, crouch over and then walk away leaving it to Michael to collect himself. The smug look on his face really need to wiped off and in the end the team did it. Really...

We have both teams coming up back to back (as we have the past couple of years) in Rounds 18 and 19. IF we could be guaranteed (yes I know we can't but let's for interest say we could) one win from the two which one would you choose? Many Essendon fans (myself included) say Carlton are our greatest ...

He knows he aint no champion and certainly not our best player - said so himself.

VERY IMPRESSIVE tonight on OWAAT.

Hoping we finish 8th and get to play Carlton (who will drop to 5th) in the first final at the MCG for both teams in a LONG TIME. Carlton have Dogs, Pies, Bombers, North, Melbourne, Freo (away), Hawthorn and St Kilda to come. Not sure they will win enough to secure a top 4 spot when you look at West ...

Great to see wondeful Melbourne and North Melbourne people onboard tonight (cough cough w@$k fest for Gary and James) and next up we get to sit through Sammy Newman interview his best mate Tricky Ricky to try to gain some public respect back. Had enough already. Oh as much as I despise Collingwood I...

If you didn't know we're actually playing tonight. The papers, tv and radio have all been about Melbourne. Their plight on the field, their recovering President off the field, their debutant tonight and not a thing about us. They've got so much to lose tonight both on and off the field I can't wait ...

Wouldn't be surprised this year that'll come close to averaging 80K for our games at the G. Unbelievable really. 78K Vs Carlton 89K Vs Collingwood 84K Vs Richmond (Pies only got 58K Vs them on a Friday night) 60K??? Vs Melbourne (if they beat Carlton this week add another 10K) 80K+ Vs Hawthorn (away...

All of the top deck in the Ponsford is GA as is Q1-5.

Outside of that yes only available for booking is top deck of the Olympic and there's not left of that.

80K+ I'm thinking.

Oh and Dons by 32

Chance Bateman (realise he is a premiership player but bloody hell he is hopeless - very little impact on games)

Got a feeling he is going to kick 5-6 goals this week.

We're not really playing kids (outside of Heppell) who are in their first year of AFL football. Zaharakis is even in his 3rd season. Melksham 2nd. We have a lot of a players who are in the team who are into their 5th + seasons (Paddy, Monfries, Jetta etc). The kids were able to deal with it in 93 an...

We're 8 rounds into the season and thus far have won 5.5 games (only losing the two). Really we've only been 2 kicks short of having 7 wins out of 8 and even the Collingwood game we took it up to them. Pretty amazing considering where we've come from last season (14th with 7 wins). I predicted we'd ...

What is the biggest WOW for you during the first 6 rounds (quarter) of season 2011? Here's some that might get the ball rolling. 1. Gold Coast's first win/comeback against Port Adelaide AWAY. 2. The demise thus far of the St Kilda Football Club. 3. Essendon's 15 goal first quarter Vs Gold Coast Suns...

I tend to agree with a fair bit in here and the most pleasing thing about everything at the moment is that the SCUM think that they are better than us... :lol: I am sure we have brighter prospects than them (in terms of winning a flag in the next 3-5 years), but i still think they'll finish above u...
