WHAT WE LIKE ABOUT ESSENDON

13.11 (89) to 5.11 (41)



THE GAME

There are 2 broad groups of Collingwood supporters: those who hate Carlton the most and those who hate Essendon the most

Both are noble dispositions

This week we’ll witness tear-streaked Bomber Kiddies with their Gnashing Grannies

Throw in their coterie of Corporate Toadies and they have an arrogant, horrible fanbase

Maynard will be on Naicos watch: expect anything from Terry Daniher invading the ground to try and king hit him to Danksy loitering in the tunnel with a syringe

Whatever it takes – dickheads

This is a fragile Essendon team, incapable of performing until their season is lame duck

We have everything to play for, finals beckon, and it’s not nearly 7,000 days since we won one

Jamie gives a rat’s about every contest and will go on the rampage this week

Pendles is hungry for more flags and has Gnome Harvey's record in sight

And Johnny Noble would take a bullet for you then turn up the next day to help build your patio

Good on us for refusing to bottom out

9 IN A ROW AND IN THE TOP 4


Collingwood by 64 points

Let's gooooooo Pies!!!!

Now with the freo draw we can move into the top 4 and not worry about our crap % happy days.

It was probably the best possible result for us.
As you say, if we win we're top 4 & 3.5 games ahead of Richmond.
Will they finish ninth again?

Be still my beating heart.

Incoming 6+ goal victory. Nice and relaxing

 

[Prestigerrycomo]

If we’re serious about this year, this is a game we don’t drop

 

[jonbe54]

I do like an early GAME DAY THREAD but this is ridiculous

Obviously WalterBlaknWhte isn’t on ignore

Early game day thread is likely an ignore-worthy offence.

Most of my posts are ridiculous

What do you expect with an Arts Degree ?

LOL Walter all good . . . this could start a trend mate - the possibilities are awesome.

Bloody hell, this made me burst out laughing.

Let's smash the bloody bastards!

Incoming 6+ goal victory. Nice and relaxing

Just like the last two weeks … oh wait.

We’ll win this, that’s for certain. What’s less clear is whether it’s a nailbiter and we win by one kick, or it’s a blowout and we win by 2 kicks.

 

[unplugged]

I'm trying to revert back to early season when I'd go into every game expecting to lose, so that I wouldn't be disappointed if we did. We just weren't supposed to be good this year.

Key word: trying

Pies by 52.

Or a loss?

Or Pies by 61?

Or a loss?

Or Pies by 90?

Ash Johnson will kick 7 after getting the nerves out of his system last week. Have faith

 

[Rorzza]

Yep, if CFC are a genuine top four team losing to Essendon isn't an option!

 

[Horaceg]

after so many straight we are well due………………..…..….


……………..for a percentage booster, go Magpies!

 

[KinderSmock]

Essendon have been alright the past few weeks but we're also beginning to really grow. We know we can win. The belief is there. It's about the polish now.

 

[TheGreatGrundy]

Obviously WalterBlaknWhte isn’t on ignore

Yes, he has slipped a couple of notches on my respect meter.

 

[Vicky Park]

Tomorrow will be the first of our really big wins. Not because we care about percentage. Pfft. It’s more about practising for September.

We’ve been toying with the competition up until now, teasing the opposition with the tantalising prospect of winning - and then snatching success from their grasping hands.

We’re over winning like that. Time to flaunt our brand. Tomorrow we move to the next stage of Fly’s grand plan. The flag beckons.

I want some of what you are on.

I fear this game, they are playing well, hope I am wrong but we may drop this one.
