How do we compare to Essendon for the same period?

Funny thing about Essendon - their existence is meaningless.

They've had between 10-12 wins eleven times since their last premiership. Basically half of the seasons since then.

Barely scraped into finals a few times but haven't won one since 2004 and have never looked like doing anything serious in September.

There is no point to Essendon. They're a tepid bath of a football club.

At least at Melbourne you're always going to feel something.

    • May I interest you in Aldi's snow gear sale ⛷ 

    I like the idea that we're elitists who enjoy skiing but would still shop at Aldi.

    Miles off, who buys snow gear at Aldi? Yikes! It's Burton AK or bust baby.

    Shouldn’t we have moved onto the ‘What they are saying at West Lakes’ thread by now? ?

    Unfortunately, they aint saying much!

    One big thread on BF where they are talking about team selection and whatnot (yawn) and this preview thread that went up a couple of hours ago. Only a few replies so far...

    I hate them like no other club.
     
     

    I’m so glad to read this about Essendon. I hate them with every fibre of my being. I hate them with unrivalled/unbridled red hot passion. I hate them to a degree that’s off the charts, next level, boss level. I hate them more than I’ve ever hated anyone/anything. I hate them so much that it sometimes scares even me. 
    Somebody slap me. ?

    Cheers, I feel so much better now. ❤️?

    Adelaide fans don't or can't think about anything other than the Crows. They probably don't even know who they're playing this round.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
