    Why Were Essendon So Highly Fancied Before Round 1?

    Long-time member, first time positing in a long while. Something has me puzzled - Why we're Essendon so highly fancied before Round 1? This isn't a "hindsight hero" call, or an attempt to "stick it up" the Bombers or sink the boots in. I wondered this when Mick Malthouse tipped the Don's to win...

    Game Day Round 14: West Coast Vs Essendon

    Round 18: West Coast Vs Essendon Or: Going in Far Too Early with Fraser McInnes This was the worst game I went to last year. Or, I mean, the one that took place in 2018. I had to sit in the freezing cold while literal drug cheats smashed us. Then we pegged it back a little, and it ended up...

    Vic Clubs Playing Games at Old Home Grounds

    Now I might be pushing this but, with recent talk of the Bulldog's Expanding The Western Oval and talks of them playing 'heritage' games there. Should Victoria Clubs, and AFL clubs in general, play 'heritage' games at their old Grounds. Yes this might be a bit outrageous but I kind of like the...

    Reading about 193cm Jok winning the Saints time-trial but as usual his time wasn't posted. Why? There never is for any club in any year!! WTF!! How can that be so damned confidential.

    Consistency of rulings

    If the tribunal is to be believed then the reason given for why Naitanui was suspended a few weeks ago, that he should have considered his size compared to the opponent whom he tackled and hurt, should now be similarly adjudicated this week from the Richmond game. Zaharakis must be expecting...

    Analysis The mental ineptitude against so called "lesser" sides & general mediocrity of EFC (Since 2005)

    Let's try and have a sensible analysis of some of the reasons our club has been unable to win many of the so called "winnable" games since our last finals victory (2004). Below is a list of the games (37) where our club has started "favourites" (or equal favourites) against sides of similar...

    Teams Biggest Whipping Boys

    Every Team has at least one player that manages to get negative attention from the media and supporters. What are each teams most judged players. For Carlton, it is obviously a few. Jones, Casboult, Daisy and Rowe just to name a few.

    Pugilism: Sheedy's legacy?

    Under Sheedy, Essendon was the most dangerous team against which to play as players in the opposition team, especially key players, we're targetted to be "softened up." Sheedy once admitted this tactic in an interview. After watching three of Sydney's best sustain injuries due to excessively...
