Think Tank It's time. Essendon should no longer be known as the 'Bombers'

[COKEandCOLA]

It's irrelevant because they 'won trade week again'

Let's hope they keep winning it every year then.

Hello Bay. How are you? I am fine.

Now many of you will know a little of Essendon's chequered history.
The first relocated club, the first attempted merger (with Hotham), claiming a 'premiership' despite not playing in a grand final (1924)... and of course their terrible history with names.

There was time when they weren't the 'Bombers' but a rather more disturbing nickname: "The Blood Stained N...." well I don't want to use that word but here's a hint to it:

In modern times they are called the "Bombers" but surely we can no longer condone a club who have 'brought the game into disrepute' being named after one of two things: either death machines from the sky who kill (many innocent) people:

Or a scourge even greater than James Hird's history with Charters/Dank/French Mistresses:

The obvious solution is to rename them: the Essendon Mosquitoes (and no that's not a reference to the wooden, two engine aircraft from WW2).

Firstly they already use a mosquito as that mascot:

They're blood sucking parasites that use a long thin implement to enter the sub-dermal layer of unsuspecting humans, cause untold misery worldwide and are generally annoying to be around.

If anyone has any other suggestions, I'm all ears.

Blood Stained Naggers?

 

[Mofra]

Blood Stained Naggers?

Want to buy a vowel?

 

[Tiger2709]

Considering they pretty much blew up their club for him why not just be done with it and call themselves the Tulla Hirds

Thats a bit long why not shorten it to The Turds?

 

[Tiger2709]

Blood Stained Naggers?

Blood Stained Nigglers?

In full agreeance nothing more to add other than that is my favourite south park episode of all time.

How did they go in the JLT tonight? Did Shiel justify two first round picks, given the Hawks picked up a better player in Scully for a packet of BBQ Samboys?

Hawthorn truly will soon be a team made up entirely of pensioners and cripples.

And they'll still end up higher on the ladder than Carlol... truly

 

[Laphroaig]

Pfft.

We have green shoots.

And they are turning into shrubs as we speak.

Winning trade week is as excellent as "owning the libcucks" or whatever we're called this week

And obviously Carltank will still be dwindling away, on the bottom of the ladder where they belong.

Keep on telling yourself that princess, whatever helps you sleep at night.

We'll win another premiership before your rabble does.

True story!

 

[COKEandCOLA]

Nah, they prefer to use COLA to buy players.

Oh, wait.

I’m sorry to be the one to tell you the bad news but you didn’t actually merge with Melbourne

That's cute.

I'm happy to remind you that your players failed to correctly fill out their ASADA paperwork.

Run along, Tinkerbell.

And yet we were rewarded with the number 1 pick and are still a better team than hawforn

Didn't we beat your rabble twice last year?

At least you think you won trade week though.

Try again.

I love it when our bitches get uppitty

 

[Alphonse_]

Clarke talking up Sissily as if he is some kind of A Grade Superstar.

I'd be worried if I was a Hawthorn fan tbh

Being A Hawk fan these days is almost as embarrassing as admitting to being a Michael Jackson fan. (FINDING NEVERLAND -Hawthorn's quest for a flag in the next 10 years.

 

[COKEandCOLA]

That's what bitches do, it's not like they have anything else of note to get uppity about.

Who knows though, they may even win a final this year.

Maybe.

When did you last win a GF?

Heck, when did you last make one?

Of even a final for that matter?

I guess at you beat Essendon in a JLT match and they won trade week.

Must be happy days for you all.

BTW while I do admit, that Sicily is a smart ass and does indeed have a punchable face, his talent is clearly there for all to see.

He was destined for AA until his injury towards the end of the season and I'd challenge you to name a young player from your list, that has shown more than he has.

I wouldn't be getting to bloody cocky princess, your fall will be even swifter and greater than your rise.

You've missed plenty an opportunity, to have made the big dance and if anything you should hang your head in disappointment and shame.

Fake ass plastic sons of bitches!
