Unofficial Essendon Award Ceremony

[BomberDog]

Forget "Best Clubman" and those other dull prizes they give out at the B&F. Time to re-vamp the ceremony and give out some more entertaining prizes. I have made a few suggestions to get the ball rolling - but there is still a lot more room for awards at this event...you'll get the idea...


‘Waterford Crystal’ award for most fragile player: Courtney Dempsey

‘RM Williams’ award for corralling like a sheepdog: Jay Nash

‘Brookland Greens Estate’ award for smelliest umpiring performance: Sydney v Essendon (Rd 8)

‘Tiffanys’ white gold award for most pro-Essendon umpiring performance: Essendon v Collingwood (Rd 17)

‘Commonwealth Serum Laboratories’ award for most blood spilt for the team: Andrew Welsh (seemed to have his head regularly wrapped in bandages in the middle of the season?)

‘Halliburton’ award for most physical damage on the opposition: David Hille

haha, very good.

we could award the 'waterford crystal' to almost the entire essendon football club though, seriously.

Game v Port at the Dome or Rd 22 match against St Kilda. Take your pick.

That holding the ball non-decision against Port still sticks in my mind, the whole stadium stopped waiting for the whistle, including the Port players, then they finally played on and kicked a goal, topped off a shocking night, playing wise and on the umpires behalf.

Booing Nicholls every time he touched the ball was the highlight of our losing streak though.
