We can't afford two or three years in the bottom 4 but I don't know how we'll avoid it, these are very disturbing times.
I think we'll get closer to Collingwood than we did to North but I doubt we'll beat them.
B4L, I think the times are very disturbing for the AFL in general, not just us.

It was my sons birthday last week, so I'm coming down for the game this week.
The last time I took him to the G it was the last game of the season against collingwood (2004 I think) and we got up by a point.
Him, me and my old man who has since passed away, sung ourselves hoarse that night... I'm hoping for a repeat...
Let’s go BIG !

True, but the AFL is too big to fail.
We aren't.

I was at the Bryce Gibbs Cup V Essendon, we were gone for all money then came back hard with 10 minutes to go and got up for a draw, another few minutes and we win and Bryce would be wearing red and black.
The players and 99% of the Carlton people at the MCG were cheering us on like crazy, then when we lost to Melbourne and guaranteed Kreuzer a few years later the cheer squad clapped the players off the ground, they were actually holding up banners saying Kreuzer!!
Losing and tanking suck, I can't understand anyone being happy with either.

Or Goldstein at pick 37, instead we took Hampson at 17.
