Roast Essendon in no mans land

[Engimal v3]

Expert in irrelevance.

One win in your last 30 games. The one win cost you a once-in-a-generation player. Longer premiership drought than us. Haven’t beaten us since we had a team of tops ups (2016). Lowest VIC crowd figures.

You’re well qualified. No wonder you’re obsessed with every Essendon thread on here.

Good grief, put it in your diary!

Lid should be off. F*** the modesty, embrace arrogance.

Yeah that couldn't possibly backfire for the fans of a club that hasn't won a final in 7200 days.

There's no way it's been that long. Provide proof.

 

[HirdyLannister]

The media circle jerk pumping up Essendon is sickening, the media trying to build us up to crush us in 4 rounds time.

Lid is staying well and truely on.

I was rounding up slightly

Even if you are top of the ladder?

Wow, that's so humiliating

 

[eth-dog]

Wow, that's so humiliating

You know what's really embarrassing? The fact that we've not won a final for 20 years and yet we've won a flag more recently than 7 other clubs. How embarrassing for anyone that supports any of those clubs.

"We're less shit than North" isn't the humble-brag you think it is.

 

[Yoda_]

To be relevant is to be a premiership contender. Winning an elimination final from the bottom part of the 8 is nice but ultimately meaningless if that's your ceiling.

The Carlton cohort on this very football forum think its the be all and end all though

 

[eth-dog]

"We're less s**t than North" isn't the humble-brag you think it is.

It's because I wasn't humble bragging.

 

[Yoda_]

Wow, that's so humiliating

Worshipping this stat like its some sort of useful metric is what’s embarrassing

 

[Westlo]

lets be real the only stat that matters is premierships and it's a pisstake seeing people still waiting from 95 and 99 try and shit on us.

If richmond had just won 1 finals in 2017 breaking their massive finals drought as if fans from other clubs wouldn't still be shitting on them. the only reason we stopped was because they won a flag. like even if we jag a final this year the oh you haven't won a final in 7200 days is just going to change into you haven't won a flag in 24 years (just sans north and blues supporters)

cotchin kicking against the wind and getting smashed by 90 points isnt less funny because they win one final, it's less funny when they win a flag, especially 3 in 4 years.

Has Chief got a contingency when BigFooty crashes when Essendon finally win a final?

The server will implode

It's smart to have contingencies, but this is some doomsday prepper lever stuff.

Besides, who knows what server technology will be like in 2035..

Hopefully after the 8th push for a premiership in 2031 the server will be fixed. Unsure what 2035 looks like but im with you, who knows

What stat?

Too true

Everytime I hear someone say this day counter, I hear Rainman counting stuff

Idiots continue to reference this like some sort of usefulness

It's relevant in the context I used it; discussing how lippy Essendon fans should be. Because if they get lippy now and that counter doesn't get reset in September then it'll be pretty funny.

It’s as meaningful and useful as metres gained in real life. Looks nice on paper but ultimately, it’s what it ends up doing that matters

Lid is staying firmly on until we win another premiership.

Then you better believe us Essendon fans are going to rewrite the book on being arrogant smug assholes.
