Essendon - how shit?

Post by peps_12 »

Who here remembers 1990?

Everyone, of course you do. Who went to Vic Park that night and had the best night - getting blind on the ground, celebrating with 20000 of your closest mates, people climbing up the goal posts, the players coming back to the ground later in the night, the Town Hall down the road playing replays of the game all night.

What a night.

The point?

I went to Windy Hill tonight. Not because I give a shit about Essendon, but I figured must be a chance with pissed Essendon scrags everywhere. And what happened? The ground was locked up tight, and you were only allowed in to the social club with a Bombers membership. How f@cked is that? Where did all the supporters go to raise the roof and go ballistic? Do they even care that they just won a flag? Unbelievable. The whole suburb of Collingwood didnt stop for a week in '90, but essendon have finished already!

oh jesus christ dont even get me started on this coz i will have to do a scabby Alf here. I was dumb enough to go over to the Essendon celebrations which were supposed to be from around 7 till 10:30 well the players arrived about 8:30 and were gone by 9. For 15 bucks and there were thousands there well they were laughing. What a rip off club thank god i am not dumb enough to buy a membership for them too. But u know what the moronic Essendon fans were stupid enough to not even notice that they were being jibbed! They just kept on carrying on with that stupid worshipping llllyooooydddy lllloyyyydddy all friggen night. I bet ya Melbourne woulda stayed ages for their fans like North did last year.

in what way exactly? i think what we don't need to emphasise is how good they actually are, and to think collingwood was once such a great force.

Moorcroft sounds alright but Alessio is very inconsistent. Is he the type of player we want?

I heard they would be for an early draft pick. I don't think that is the way to go.

i heard Essendon might be cutting Alessios pay but he will be still considering staying with them.

The #3 pick must not be traded.

Unless we're getting Kouta / Lloyd / Hird, there is absolutely NO value in trading a pick so high.
