It's a bit of an epic effort of manufactured victimhood to turn

'A club is considering making less use of it's mascot image in branded material'

into

'the woke police are coming for everything'.

I mean...

Is this just because the logo looks like it was taken from clip art in the early 90’s?

Inspired Bombers logo change. I'm all for it. Kudos to Dee Viney Intervention.

Loving the nickname suggestions too:

  • Essendon Pharmaceuticals (thanks Witches Hat - gut laugh!)
  • Essendon Danks (thanks demon 3164 - simply undeniable)
  • Essendon Pr*cks (my suggestion)

Whats with all the lame references to drug culture? I don't get it.

The individuals who were party to it  have long been out of the club.

The individuals who were party to it,  are either dead (Bruce Reid), or have long been out of the club.

The word " culture".... most apt.

This is the crux of the matter.. their culture.

The personas...one thing.. the context was the over-riding culture of the club.

Don't implicate Bruce in it. He was a legendary human being. He had nothing to do with it.

As my mate Huw says, you can sum Essendon up in two words . . . cul cha.

Not sure I want to see the mascot for your suggestion.

they could always switch name to the bummers

and have a logo of a graphic designer's representation of james hird's backside

Wokeism so damned insidious makes some people nervous and questioning our norms and beliefs, fortunately not those that have a strong culture and belief system supported by reality and history.

In Kenya  the house keeper and the nanny were always removing the Demons kit from around my son’s crib. They were really disturbed by it, really had to explain that I was not a satanist and going to sacrifice the boy!!!.

Likewise, Bombers kit not popular in the places I’ve worked (Lebanon/Sudan)

I'm not sure what you mean here? Can you elaborate?

Well I think ‘gliders’ is a far more environmentally appropriate name than ‘bombers’

Though “bomber” can imply someone / something that bombs out.  Like finals.

Nothing?  Was he blind, deaf or mute?  A doctor’s first duty is to his patient, not his paymaster.

Complete with emitting sun light?

 

As long as what they do annoys Don's fans then I'm OK with it.

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
