Lid OFF 2026. Not just for kicks

I think you’ll be walking back your prediction of a Finals win taking 10 years :wink:

Maybe.

Our list is still pretty bad so a finals win is still a fair way off though

Thanks to this draft I have more excitement for us since that night Hird said on the coach he wanted to coach the Bombers **that was peak hype for me**

I have hope for the future, boy that is an intoxicating feeling. Especially as I will walk around like Mr Bean giving everyone the finger when we are on top again and hated.

Terrible list… yet still the lightest injury list (at this time of the year) for many years???

We need a war chant

Imagine bringing this energy to home pre games.
Mcgraths running back from the toss.
Stadium lights start flicking.
Behind Mcgrath a hype man, drummers and 50k Essendon fan belting this out

Rd1 v hawks
We win by 10g…

As a fan base we don’t have the rhythm, coordination, bass or coolness factor to do that!

Guaranteed injuries resulting from that should we start bouncing around like that pre game. Just a little yacht rock for us on the Matt Innes play list

What about… “Essendon clap clap clap”? Pretty catchy and inspiring stuff

Breakout player for us I think Archer Day Wicks and he gets 2 brownlow votes against Geelong and kicks 3 goals cause none of them can be bothered to mark him

I reckon kako’s gonna really step it up and be our biggest improver.

I can’t see how we lose a game.

Provided we don’t play the doggies, port, Hawthorne, Collingwood, Geelong, Sydney…… shall I go on?
