2016 Draw
#21
We have close to the largest fan base of any club, albeit much of that is currently latent support.  It staggers me that people like Robbo dismiss this so readily.

When we get back on our feet you watch them all come crawling back to jump on the bandwagon... Hawks v coasters, meh, we'd pull 90 000 at our next final vs just about anybody.

And we'd win the bloody thing too.

I would have been ecstatic if we didn't open the season. No more prime time for us until we have something to offer/show.

HTF does cheats FC establish yet another marquee game and call it the "country game".  Last I saw Essendon was a suburb of Melbourne!

The heading "bush master... Sheedy launches Farmer's clash" is on the back page of the small paper - had to read it twice, initially thought it read "bullsh!t master... Sheedy launches Farmer's clash".

The arrogance of that mob is deadest unbelieveable.

This can be a good thing, nothing better for team building than being on the road with your teammates, especially for that unexpected win. How much good would of the come from behind win in Adelaide have done that squad in 00's?

AFL would still realize that we can draw a crowd when the time is right, a few early Melbourne games when the optimism is still around then travelling to WA and QLD mid season. Get to warmer places for a few days to recharge.

Good, our blokes need to adopt the "anywhere, anytime" mentality. Green grass, 4 sticks at either end, get agot, kick it through the big sticks more times that the opo. KISS.

No Friday night footy......AFL (and moreso the Hun) think it's a slap in the face, as far as I'm concerned they're doing us a favour!!! Rushing home from work, end-of-week tiredness, Friday night traffic, staying for just 3 quarters (if that) watching us get flogged, weekend ruined before it's begun.......no more of that = win-win!!! Thanks AFL!!!
Football is life, there is nothing else....

Farmer's game for the bombers is appropriate given what they were injecting into their players. The only thing they didn't give them was sheep dip.
