Does this mean I have to change my name too?

 

[Tibbs]

I mean, if you're going to change the logo, surely you change the nickname too?

They could still be the bombers. This should appease the woke minority, and they have the added benefit of having live mascots at the MCG!

 

[GremioPower]

As they say here, "the tongue is the butt's whip"...

 

[sobrave]

Nah. Bombers goes all right. It sounds good and it’s powerful and intimidating. It makes sense for a sport team.

P.S.: “Bomba” (Portuguese for “bomb”) is slang for strong kick here. So, there’s that for me as well.

Doesn't really suit the team though does it? Essendon fancy boys might be better. Or the injectors.

I don’t think Cliff is racist, should be fine.

The AFL has enough bird teams I think, they don't need more clubs in their faction.

We need more teams in the AFL elements side. Currently there's us (power), and gold coast suns. Maybe they can be Essendon dirt? Essendon plasma?

Will Essendon still exist to win premierships?

Will Essendon still exist to win premierships?

and make their logos proud?

Essendon Bloods (bank)

Lol absolutely no way in hell. Weren’t they informally known as the blood-stained n-words back in the dicketys? A step in that direction would top their one day CEO effort for lack of DD.

Also Sydney might have something to say about it.

I reckon they are just cross they didn't have one of those trendy first nations names like Yartapuulti or Naarm, so they want to change names.

 

[TeeKray]

Essendon (number of days since last finals win)ers

 

[Grave Danger]

They could retain the Bombers name and give the climate change deniers a poke in the eye with one small change...

 

[TeeKray]

Imagine if they take MOONS before the SUNS come to their senses and do the rebrand.

What's the indigenous word for "airport"?

Given they were unofficially known as the “Blood-Stained N-Words” [see ‘Shinboners’, ‘Bays’) in the Roaring Dicketies, they don’t seem to have much luck.

Then Kevin Sheedy invented Aboriginal culture.

I've heard #Malcom banging on about this before the current plague of 'dangerous tackles' - I think Wilds even scoffed at the idea...

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Neil Craig's Active Wear range never caught on.

A good tackle is better than a goal in some cases. Teams lift with huge tackles, crowd gets involved. Good recent example was Jonas' tackle against Melb that got him suspended (lol), and Cheese' tackle on Cameron.

Despite the frothing on gameday threads, our horror free kick differential hasn't led to conceding more goals from frees than receiving them (SANFL games are probably a different story), so good job Josh Carr
