The only thing that club should be waving in the air is the records of what injections were given to the 34 players and resignation letters from anyone involved.

We are in the most privileged position to be the first club to play the cheats in Melbourne @ their home game. Particularly they are doing some sort of "support walk" for the past and can you believe it banned players. Even a some sort of standing ovation clap.

We need to stand up for the rest of the non cheating players and clubs of this league / world who are somehow tried to make feel almost sorry for the dogs.

We need a protest for:

  • Every other club and player who does noes not cheat
  • The contrived sham which saw the AFL almost complete their negotiated outcome and play everyone like fools.
  • The contrived sham which saw the AFL treat us with more disdain for dare mentioning the "T" work while at least 5 other clubs did that and shaming us (Not to mention Jimmy and Bailey)
  • The arrogance of which their supporters have belittled every possible finding,(mexican hats, stand by hird et al)
  • The AFL players association who inexplicably stick by the 34 like fallen angels, without caring about the non drug taking other 500 or so who should demand a level playing field
  • Rd 4, 2013 when they beat us by 120 odd points, when juiced up with goof balls
  • The ridiculous Hird dragging the game through the courts and the mud for 3 years.

We need to do it not just for us but for every other fair club, players, supporter and sports.

 

Ideas?

  • I like the simple chant of CHEATS, CHEATS, CHEATS, CHEATS, CHEATS, CHEATS during the standing ovation. 30,000 odd chanting dees would out voice 30 odd thousand gay golf claps. 

 

 

This is a disgraceful thread/idea.

The current players are innocent and this is mean- spirited at the least.

What goes around comes around. Draft fixing by us a few years ago?

Oh wait- that didn't happen did it?  Chris Connolly said so didn't he?

I will be ashamed to be part of a demon crowd tomorrow that participated is this process, not to mention the example so-called adults are setting to younger fans in the crowd.

I do, but what sort of fool would engage in a football discussion on facebook, with the armies of mongoloids there to contend with?

This is getting ridiculous. The next thing we'll hear is that they're bringing Dank in to lead the Essendon faithful in a communal shoot-up in tribute to the banned 34.

That particular idea may be bad, but the whole thread??  We need to do something to indicate our displeasure(!) with EFC and what they have dome to AFL and Australia's otherwise clean sporting image.

And no, tanking is not comparable with drug taking.  Amazed that anyone would mention it in this context.  I suppose if EFC gave mickey-finns to their opponents at quarter time, someone would say 'but we tanked' so how can you criticise them.

Mark my words this is just as much a protest against Melbourne as it is against the AFL.

We are the Bunnies. Upon thoughtful reflection I hope our Club withdraws their services and not give any airing to this Drugfest.

I reckon its ARS time otherwise. And that has been done before!!! Hawthorn jabbed it to them.

I've read this four times and still have not the faintest idea what it means.

I reckon a good protest would be to belt them by 80 plus points and then take Heppell and Hurley off their hands at the end of the year.

12:34pm the march leaves apparently. They just said on the footy show. 12:34 at that time because 34 players were suspended. 

There has been a late change to the Essendon fan's march departure time.

The 12:34 departure time will be moved to 12:34,000

This more accurately honours each of the one thousand injections that the fallen had received.

May we never forget their sacrifice.

If they really want to honour the Bombers players they'll start the walk strongly, surprising many with their pace and strong teamwork. About halfway through, however, a large number will need to succumb to hamstring and other assorted soft tissue injuries before finally deteriorating into a rabble - failing to reach the ground despite their early positive signs.

no idea thats why i asked. People that would rather enter obscure gifs than use words border on illiterate. And in this day and age that frustrates me. WTF does yur gif mean?

sometimes,  a picture conveys a very broad possibility of concepts.....  these ones are meant to tease & to challenge whoever is interested,  to look into the image & imagine,  just what it could mean. 

Its an inner adventure,  w_J_n     -  -  -  -  -  insight availability is necessary  to be able to do this, & it also strengthens insight,  practicing it.

 

but those who are too confronted,  or too lazy,  won't bother.

They'll sign a waiver, but rest assured they'll be no records to look back on. #redflag

How prosaic. What a downer. Can't you do better than that?

"The gif brings the viewer face to face with their own preconceived hierarchy of cultural values and assumptions of worth."

"The gif imaginatively propels its viewer forward into the seemingly infinite progression of possible reproductions that the OP engenders, whilst simultaneously pulling them backwards in a quest for the original source or referent that underlines the thread's oeuvre."

Something we can sink our teeth into.

an exploration !!!    the possibility of any number of possibilities,   go ahead & narrow them down,  with your IQ filters ?

 

....  not for strict christian or other sects consumption.  too liberating.

WTF are they thinking?  This Club is more [censored] up than i thought.

.....  this will be Sheed's idea...    no doubt he crystal balled this season,  & he can see the bummer supporters getting mighty Unhappy & losing their fighting qualities following loss after loss,  this season.

 

IMO he is trying to save the anger & desire of the the bummer support base.   It's a culture that breeds winning,  which he built at the bummers in his decades of work & premierships over there.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
