Certified Legendary Thread Sympathy for *essendon III - 4 Sept 2024 marks 20 years since *Essendon have won a final; Coached by the anti “RESULTIST”, RIP D2D and T_S

[Engimal v3]

Your club literally backstabbed Ben Rutten to try and get him and then proceeded to heck up a CEO acquisition. Oh and what did Clarko say to your mob?

It's actually way funnier than that, let's go through the timeline lol

1. North Melbourne with Brad Scott end Essendon's last chance at a finals win (10 years ago)
2. Essendon fans spend years making fun of Brad Scott to cope
3. Alastair Clarkson is open to coaching - fields offers from clubs
4. Essendon fire their coach because they think they are a shoe-in against North/GWS
5. Clarkson tells them their approach was amateurish
6. Essendon scramble and in a panic end up appointing... Brad Scott

It's funny - when he first got appointed I jokingly said something like "a prelim final thumping is the limit with Brad Scott at the helm", without realising that making a prelim final would literally be historic for the Bombers lol

Chirpy campaigners.

I liked it better when you pelicans actually believed your basket case of a club was going to go past us on the ladder, now all you do is talk about drugzzz and 2014.

What else is there to talk about with the Bombers for the last 20 years?

Their homophobic ceo? That was pretty funny

In before “lol clarko said ********er”

I think the only way you can block a thread is by blocking the initiator.

I just can't block t'toes!

Big Benny McKay about to double his win tally this coming weekend since joining the mighty Bombers, 8 years at Norf for 8 wins, doubled in 8 months at Essendon.

Say hi to step ladder for us!

 

[Slamming Sam]

yes, keep worrying about stuff that happened 10 years ago and let it burn you on the inside.

in the meantime, you have not won a game in 270+ days. You are basically University in modern form.

Thats probably why your club will fold soon enough, too worried about everyone else.

Facts are facts. 20 years and nada finals wins.

 

[Lomas]

Relax and calm down. The tranquilisers should wear off in about 4 weeks. Just in time to see another year without a finals win.

‘But it wasn’t 4 weeks, it was a year. And a prince in exile never quite lost the unnatural tan’.

What about big Benny McKay pulling down Nicky Larkey’s pants

Speaking of ladders, how are you guys going all the way down there? It’s a bit hard to see you from where we are.

Give it about 4 months and you'll know after you come crashing down in an Elimination final lol

That Harley Ried goal was top notch.

Good you got that 1 in 30 win against Gold Coast to bring a winning culture or something something

Not too shabby.

But I would of thought you'd be way too busy building a monument at Airport West for K Sheedy to be engaged in the affairs of other Clubs.

You'd think the only man to coach Essendon to a winning final since Neil Armstrong landed on the moon would be deserved of much more respect.

This is good, almost as good as Harley's double fend off on the weekend.

sidenote: If we build the Sheeds monument can we then actually send him to the moon?

 

[trueroo]

why dont you come back when you actually win a game.

This threads basically ours.

Then tell you whole club and hirds dad to stop crying and winging about getting caught cheating

Harley Reid isn't fit to polish Eddie Ford's boots. I wouldn't have him if he begged.

Georgie Wardlaw ( the ex Bumber supporter) says hi! He's kicked a few ripping goals throughout the season. Shame he doesn't wear the red and black.

I like George, he's a good young talent.

Hopefully one day he can sing the clubs song

In all seriousness Eddie Ford celebrating was one of the defining, delightful images from the last round win over Gold Coast. Anyone who says North should have lost on purpose should have those images pasted up on the walls to remind them they are promoting messing with actual human beings busting their arses every week. George absolutely deserves to have that joy and so does every player.
