I wouldn’t call Alessio or Barnes stone cold killers. Barnes played wider of the contest than any first choice ruckman I’ve seen. He was however very skilled. Alessio was no hard man.
Sheedy would’ve loved to coach Draper.

As if following Essendon wasn’t enough torture!
In Zerrett’s favour, most of those guys are into their 50s now.

Its fitting that the first loss of the streak was a cold night in the ■■■■■■■ rain against Geelong
The celebration days keep coming

This actually explains a few things. Finals haven’t even started and we had already won a flag by this time.
We just need to start the season a month earlier and we are a chance of winning a final.
When are the Brissy Olympics???
We really need a two part documentary on Fox Footy about the fall and ongoing mediocrity of the Essendon Football Club.
I did 20 farken years…

This makes me wanna watch the sopranos series, for about the 6th time all the way through.
On Essendon, it’s funny to think we probably would have been better if we kept sheedy and surrounded him with young innovative assistants. I never ever thought we’d end up one of these ■■■■ clubs, we were too powerful.

Imagine going back in time to then and telling past you that everything would happen before Essendon made another GF:
- Melbourne wins a flag
- The Bulldogs win a flag
- Richmond wins THREE of them
- Geelong wins FOUR of them
- A team that doesn’t exist yet makes more GFs than Essendon

But you also get to tell them St.Kilda miss a premiership due to a dodgy bounce.
So not all bad.

The financial hard savings would be significant.
Dont forget a quick dot point of the saga…
That’s something else entirely.
It gifted Collingwood a flag. So yes it was all bad.

Ugh, I’ve never been so conflicted during the last minutes of a Grand Final.
I mean, nobody ever wants to see a Pies flag, but St. Kilda were so thoroughly unlikeable during that period and I was enjoying the pain that entire sequence caused them.
