Whilst its hard not to get ahead of ourselves, I really, really hope that we can maintain this intensity and pressurised game plan all year back and get some payback on Clubs who have been flogging us off the back of Priority Draft picks, handouts, AFL Largesse (partially from OUR gate receipts) after watching the AFL dismantle our Premiership Team in 2001 and allow the Bears to retain theirs......................................................
...........starting with AFLSSR#1 Lovechild this week.
I want to rub their noses into their own dungheap starting with "Give Me a Free" Figjam Goodes and stomp all over them. I want to rip out their eyeballs and skull**** them.
I can't get over the cheating umpires last year who gave them the game, our bad luck with 2 hammies (Hille & Gus) within a few moments and playing on that toy ground. And again we get them up there early as against at Jihad Stadium in R20.
Tear em a new one boys!! It will be most "Ün-Sydney" like. (When I hear it I hurl instantly ).
The arrogance is back in Essendon supporters and the other team supporters are getting their feathers ruffled! I say keep it up! I just hope the results on the field continue throughout the year! I'm definitely over being a laughing stock and I think many people are scared of what could happen!
Once again it's Sydney in Sydney. I think I read a stat last season where we had only played Sydney in Melbourne something like 3 or 4 times in the last 10 years FFS

The ground is very narrow, and suits Sydney's stop start play more so than the SCG. Hardness is more important than speed at this ground, and Watson, Lonergan, Hocking are going to be critical.

Yes that's correct - it's probably less than that. But the f****** finally come here later this year. I think 2006 was the last time we did play them year - 5 years ago. What a f****** joke.

Yeah, I was there that day. Worst thing was (other than forking out a fortune for the weekend) that I took my now ex-missus to the game. She was never much of a footy fan, so to take her to that game and see such a putrid display - priceless! I walked out at 3/4 time, to the obvious dismay of a fellow supporter who said "Pretty poor form leaving this early.." To which I replied "Can't be any worse than the shit the boys are dishing out on the field. When they make an effort, I will. At least those bastards didn't have to pay for their flights.."
Never been into umpire bashing, but it was evident that the former white ferrets had it in for us that day, it was a shocker. Will be there on Sunday. Cant wait. I would love to see sydney humiliated and destroyed. Think it will be a lot tougher than that however. Swans feeling the pressure of the GWS giants up here. Swans support becomes very, very thin when they are not winning.
Hopefully the boys will do the business and start off a string of many away wins this season. If they cant maintain the intensity they showed against the doggies, we are already 50% there.
the big question is... who will be umpiring???????????
GO BOYS.
pull their fancy red and white pants down.
My "FW" husband is Sydney, we have always been rather Polite when we play each other. This year however, due to all the ..shall we say..healthy amount of publicity Essendon has recieved over the last 6 months, he now hates us like a true Collingwood supporter. This now means our fake "playing nice" is out the window and i am free to hurt and maim....i have been dying for this moment and this game is my perfect excuse!!! Bring it on Boys!! xx
