None zero and 2 would be retired
Haha - I will deny I said anything 
Weāre not finals ready for another 5 years. So prepare bombers fans. Iām 25 years old, itās been painful. I have never seen the glory days of old resurface. Iāll never stop loving this club, but we are becoming the new big drought club - similar to Melbourne. Some other bloke on hear said it perfectly, itās Groundhog Day with Essendon, you feel like youāre watching the same side you watched 5 years ago despite all the changes on the field and off the field. Something very very wrong, the curse of leaving Windy Hill? The curse of Dodoro? We have some kind of bad voodoo on us.

They gave up again. Thats damaging, much more so than the individual ins and outs of player performance.
Standards and attitude again. Injury mismanagement. But they gave up and that canāt be fixed in a week. Thatās culture.
Who has ever overrated Sam Draper?
Hard to blame Scott with the hand heās dealt.
Couldnāt stick a tackle in the last 3 quarters
Rubbish I can pick 5 players raw but talented
The only reason I bought a dons digital membership (cheaper Kayo) this year was because Tassie werenāt offering one.
Culture at Essendon has been FARKED for a long long time now

Have not seen the score how did we go? Was it close and did we bring the edge?
Interesting post. I enjoy the wins, but the losses, whilst obviously disappointing and frustrating, Iām not that emotional about them (definitely not like I used to be way back when)
I think being poor for so long kinda makes you feel like thereās no real point getting worked up over losses until youāre actually a genuinely competitive side. Because then a loss makes a difference to where youāll finish and compete for finals. You are losing games you should/could be winning.
Until then Iāll keep supporting the side and enjoy the wins, and not get too caught up with the losses (except against Collingwood and Carlton, and ā¦) and wait for things to come good. Gonna be odd if and when that moment arrives.

Does anyone know what the culture even is?

Iām not actually that surprised at the result, although the margin is a bit rough.
Copping Port in Gather round at the Adelaide Oval was a tough ask, and as soon as they got on top, those flat track bully Port boys got to work as they usually do.
Weāre not that good. Neither are Port, but they are a fair bit better than us.

Why do we constantly name the oldest, most boring team possible?
Sure isnāt keeping us in touch with the good sides.
