Who will ever forget the time Zantuck arrived there from Richmond & on stage Hymie took a crack at our club & culture..now things have turned into complete crap for them.
Wow. They really are turning into the RFC....of 1983-2010Board challenge brewing. #Essendon't
Former Essendon director takes aim at Sheedy board appointment
A former Essendon director has revealed he has been approached about a board challenge and taken aim at the Bombers' decision to appoint the legendary Kevin Sheedy as a director.www.theage.com.au
And Sheedy under-achieved. They should have won way more than the four flags they did in his time.
AND he jumped on Richmond.Patrick Smith saw it coming.
"A tradition that began with my father must end. Sadly. It has become impossible to continue to support a club that acted so shamelessly. The manner in which administrations go about their business should be more important than success on the field. A winter of arrogant manipulation by Essendon means it is impossible to continue a family ritual. You cannot be concerned about what you no longer respect. I don't think my late father would feel betrayed. He would have found it unbearable to stand by the Bombers as well."
And that was before the drugs!
I remember when he wrote that. It is kind of when they started the slippery slope, through. That win at any cost mentality, which has ultimately seen them lose games and respect.Patrick Smith saw it coming.

Where does Saad get off, telling the coach he doesn't want to do a job as a minder instead of running free in the back half?
Carlisle was right, that club is *smile*.
It pays to keep your players happy. They have all the favours, even to the point of walking out on contracts.But I am watching with interest at Saad's open threat to walk to the PSD if Druggies and PaperBaggers can't come to a deal.
They’ve got experience in that area, like with Houli and us.It pays to keep your players happy. They have all the favours, even to the point of walking out on contracts.
Essendon is going to get bent over by Carlton like Carlton got bent over by us on Grigg. Deal, or receive nothing.
Yes get him back.#Essendon't
