Perfectly said.
You just knew after last week we would drop this game.
One thing that you can guarantee is that whenever Essendon has ANY expectation they ■■■■ the bed. The club is FARKED.
You’d think after 2 decades of mediocrity the team would want to change that but they just don’t care enough. I’ve had it with what the club has become….a shambles!
When have we ever done that?
Being generous, maybe three times since 2004
Maybe.
If the club folded puts everyone out of it’s missery and we can then leave this ■■■■ sport that is called AwFuL
Or we could rebuild and get done hope back…
Won’t work only way out is the AFL to intervine and help us just like they did with Melbourne and Brisbane
how come?
Because our club is not capable
so what makes you think continuing on like we have will work?
It’s the only thing they haven’t tried
Edit: sorry they haven’t tried changing list managers either
They can try but still wont work the club if farked beyond repair.
if you’re so defeated, why are you so against it?
Because he wants to spend all offseason with the delusion that Brad has yelled at them enough and we will magically be a top 4 side next year.
this is the original post that started this thread.
may 2019. now into the 6th season beyond that.
from that year you still have 11 players who have been constant starting 22 players across this year.
2 years ago we got a new coach, president, and all the other roles through the board spill.
so again the question is, what has changed ?
the irony being, barring an absolute miracle the last 2 weeks, john worsfold will have been the most successful coach at this club for the last however many years with i believe 2 12 win seasons.
whatever is wrong, again the old saying the fish rots at the head, is ringing more and more true.
The board keeps setting the direction of the club, and the criteria in which it’s employees operate.
it needs a cleanout of the boys club and a whole new set of people who actually put the best interests of the club first, and not their business interests and networking oppotunites.
Maybe we could merge with Strathmore footy club. Have some chance in the EDFL. I mean it has our name on the league!
I envy Fitzroy supporters.
They had this ■■■■ taken out of their hands. We aren’t so lucky.
what were the clubs stated goals for this year?
what did they publicly say they wanted to achieve?
what results are the club being held accountable for?
Goal was to get Goldstein to 400 games.
Just another thing we failed at.
I wouldn’t feel a thing if happend i’ll be like thank christ i don’t have to worry about this club anymore.
2025 is predictable. Come out of the blocks hard for the first half of the season then pack it in after the bye. Groundhog day.
