What would you as Essendon fans want? I know a few Essendon fans that really like Etihad stadium but I prefer the MCG. Our membership soon will out-grow the Etihad capacity. I think we are contracted until 2024 but does anyone know if there is any way of getting out of it before 2024? Being Etihad tenants is slowing the growth rate of the club IMO.
Could Etihad also be another reason why we travel poorly? Have a 7-1 record there this year (under a roof), but our MCG record is 1-6-1 this year. This includes losses to Melbourne and Richmond. You can say the quality of teams we play is different, but we beat Geelong at Etihad and it is no secret that we play our best footy at Etihad. The size of the grounds are not that different as well. Thoughts?
