Essendon are now the one to watch out for - They can win the premiership

[Red Bull]

First trade week …



Then a powerhouse performance over the reigning premier on the Friday night stage …



And now full steam ahead to September glory …

 

[DERO]

WE ARE GOING TO WIN THE FLAG

Every other top 4 side bar Essendon has lost to a bottom 4 side

Sydney (Tigers)
Blues (Adelaide)
Fremantle (Eagles)


Maybe we are being undersold

 

[jannissary]

can't believe the pies lost to this bottom 14 side. pitiful

 

[Clark G]

As it stands, Essendon has beaten a current top eight side - GWS.

Red sea has parted for 2nd spot on the ladder after Rd18

Will better the 2nd spot after Rd17 in 2013

yep, terrible last night from us. For a young side wanting to show the wider AFL community things have changed at Tullamarine, things really have remained the same

Down to 6th. The slide continues

Actually GWS are back in the top eight.

Got the powerhouse Crows next week, the slide will continue

I expect the opposite will happen. They'll bounce for a another comfortable win over a bottom team as they usually do, and then be talked up again as a flag chance.

100% agree they will definitely beat Adelaide this week.

For some reason we play like complete idiots against them.

We make Peter Wright look like Tony Lockett, Reilly O'Brien gives it to their mids on a platter, 230+ pressure rating from the first bounce, 28-9 free kick count (followed by their supports booing the umpires off the ground) and 15 x perfectly placed high risk angled 50M kicks by an 8 gamer.

Followed by an 8 goal loss to the Saints next week.

Will win one lose one until the end of the season from here t finish 10th.

13.5 wins should get you in the 8.. 13.5 wins got Carlton to 5th last year

It’s the life of a big club, we just have to roll with it. Moving clicks and views for the media.

It is sad (but all also funny) that they give you guys hope

HOW WE FEELING ABOUT TONIGHT TULLA FANS??

Personally I am starting to get nervous

 

[Mr Meow]

Essendon have had a bad patch, but if they correct course and win the games they should (with a fairly okay draw), they're still a 50/50 chance at snatching 4th. Home elimination final still looks probable, at the very least.

 

[kreuze_missile]

They couldn’t miss the 8 from here.

Surely not.

This all has to amount to something more than a favourable early season draw.

It just has to.
