Best ticket in town - do it! I'm an AFL full member and love that, but my 2 sons are full MCC members (nominated at birth) and when they ask me to join them at the footy, cricket or even soccer I'll go at the drop of a hat! Great view, balcony passes, padded seats there and best of all the...

Don't think so as parents would prefer them to go to Therry. St Francis' alignment, in the last few years, with Oak Park and Pacco juniors hasn't worked for one reason or another. EDFL has only let them have 10s and 12s this year. Their 14s are playing with one of the Abers teams. Will be...

To make it more confusing the EDFL have allowed St Francis to enter under 10s & 12s this year.

Fair call

Go back to the 60s so lots of rivalries. Coll & Carl are obvious. Massive hatred for Rich & St K from the 70s which still lingers. Haw from the 80s is a no brainer. Foots & NM I actually don't mind even though their supporters think there is a rivalry. Geel & Melb are OK (actually a bit of a...

OK I'll ask the obvious. At what point in the first quarter tomorrow will someone say "Umpire Jesus isn't the only one being crucified today!" BTW congratulations to Keilor and Strathmore on their great initiative. Hopefully a huge crowd

Plenty of forgettable games but of the big matches the 2005 grand final. 2006only slightly better. Thank God for Geelong's style of footy in the following years!

Re: 2011 Trade/Delisting thread part III Yeah OK...just getting a bit slow in my old age. Although wouldn't mind that half forward line at Aberfeldie or Drouin!

Re: 2011 Trade/Delisting thread part III Which comp? Essendon District? Gippsland? Give me a spell!

Confusing season....lot's of positives but negatives as well. Loved the improvement of guys like Zaharakis (B & F maybe), Hurley, Collyer and Carlisle, introduction of Heppell and the consolidation of Watson, Monfries and Stanton. Unexpected wins are always great eg Geelong, as well as sound...

Agreed...what a bizarre thread! Some people are never happy

How dumb....forgot Hird

The best was Neale Daniher. Others at Essendon were Foulds, Watson, Long, Wanganeen and Mercuri

Serious question....forget the Essendon part. As I said he played all his junior footy with us (except 1 year in U14s) so the interest is real

Brock came from our local club - Aberfeldie - so have taken a big interest in him since he played with the Dees. You see him and the guys he is battling for a spot with every week and you all know things better than me. Can he get back in the best 22 or has the speed of the game passed him by at 25?

Don't remind me! Was at a restaurant in Victoria Pde for a mates 50th about a km from the ground. Had the game taped at home. Asked the owner not to tell me the result and he was fine. Come midnight, going home, then ran into this couple going into the restaurant for coffee smiling with Essendon...

Take your point but a huge amount of those seats were in the bar all day

MCC a different world on Boxing Day. Looks full at 10 am then seems to empty a bit..........but all smashing piss in the members bars and watching on TV until stumps. Still full though seats empty!

64 for sure - essendon airport & southern cross hotel

Re: Welcome to Keilor Park Bombers (Unofficial) I'm a bit slow......now I know what you mean!

Re: Welcome to Keilor Park Bombers (Unofficial) I don't follow your logic!

Re: Welcome to Keilor Park Bombers (Unofficial) Hope not.........windiest, coldest place on Earth in mid winter. Ask any EDFL player or supporter!

Forget this crap about the frees he gets. One of the best midfielders I've seen. He gets whacked so many times.....and I'm an Essendon supporter!

Love Hirdy - best player I've seen at Ess and I go back to the early 60s - but totally agree.........what was he thinking?

Thank God for Ben Collins' goal a few weeks ago on the final siren at West Coburg otherwise Abers, Douttas and West Coburg would now only only be separated by a tiny amount of %!

Maybe you should be drug tested.......or are you having one massive lend of us with some of your posts this season?

Old Rexy..........my first ever boss in the 70s.........memories. Loved his sport. Now involved heavily in the croquet club at Windy Hill!

Was at that game (actually a mate was runner for North that day) - but go back to the 70s when we had a very strong wind in the last quarter, in front at 3/4 time and you guys only had 17 men. I still don't understand how Barry Cable is not rated in the all time greats. What he did in that 30...

One of the best grand finals I have been to. Have also watched it about 5 times since (the wife and daughter are Cats supporters). Besides the kicking earlier I think the Saints lost it, and it played into the Cats hands, was when the many, many times the Saints bombed it into the forward line...
