Dear Damo,

Your team is [censored]

Your support is [censored]

Your administration is [censored]

Your club is [censored]

Your only saviour is the AFL

Rohan is a bloke I know and he has confided that he giggles when he writes a piece on 'the dees'

The above is from somebody that I used to know.

Be assured I have replied in the strongest possible fashion.

Anyone else battling with the mongrels today?

    Hopefully you will be able to return the favour if his team is stripped of all their premiership points and their captain is stripped of his Brownlow.

    Growing up in the Essendon area all my life, going to primary school and secondary school, freinds of the family and a fair amount of freinds who barrack for the Bombers, i was expecting my Facebook and SMS to go ballistic...it was dead quiet.

    For the first time i had respect for Essendon fans. It wasn't a win for them on Saturday night...it was a implosion of our club and they knew the difference.

    I've had 3 Essendon fans coming up to me saying " I feel sorry for you today"..

    Never ever thought i would hear that!

    Still hate them though :)

    Nupp just abject pity from friends and family. The wife was very understanding i relented and had a couple of soothing sherberts sat nightthus ending my no drink regime leading up to the trek.

    Shes a Maggie. She humours me.

    Others feel the pain. Strangely no one laughs. Its moved waypast that.

    Lucky Theres so much more to life than footy. :)

    What a sad excuse for a human being he is.

    And if Connolly giggles, so what?

    He might think we are crap, and he'd be right, but it's a childish response, and I'd be surprised if he said that.

    He's written precious few articles on the dees in recent times anyway, and as a bombers supporter himself, I doubt he'd like us much at all.

    It's tough to deal with but personally I would much rather cop it than receive pity from other fans.

    Something about it just makes it feel more pathetic.

    The filter I use for credible criticism is "are you a member of the club you barrack for"?

    When the response is "what does that have to do with it", it makes me use swear words as i dont rate monkey gallery experts.

    This one works really well.

    Shuts 'em real quick.

    Try it.

    Those Essendon supporters that took sad joy in our poor performance on Saturday night did so with the knowledge that what's to come for them is far worse and far more frightening than just a poor team playing poorly. They run the risk of not being able to literally field a team. Thier players will run from their club and leave them far worse off than we are now.

    They'll look back on Saturday night and remember how far they've fallen, and we'll offer them words of support and kindness, not because we won't want to rub it in, but because we are better quality people with more care for the game.

    You people need to get better friends.

    Not even my Essendon friends stuck the boot in this week. What's the point?

    It's not like we are to blame and your friends should know you are hurting.

    I've had a number of Essendon supporters come to my desk today at work to have a go about our club. They think they are so funny until I tell them to keep laughing when their players are all suspended for 2 year for drug use, they quickly stop smiling and go away

  • Quote

    Ran into a Bomber mate earlier said that they've been there and they will again . New teams,lacking direction and confidence take time .

    Just say "I'm Melbourne buddy ,proud of it,it's not your problem so mind your own drug business."

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
